The chances of playoff Nikola Jokic being unleashed upon an unsuspecting (actually not so unsuspecting since he had those monster games on national TV) audience are growing slimmer and slimmer. This win helped, but the odds aren’t good at all. Remember: this is all Paul Millsap’s fault. Realistically, Jokic shares some blame because he can’t…

Jakob Poeltl 17 Points Full Highlights (3/21/2018)
I considered writing a big multi-paragraph essay about why Austria is so awesome (Jakob Poeltl is one of the reasons) for this description, but I feel like Austrians aren’t as fervently nationalistic as, say, people from former Yugoslavian states. Blatantly pandering to them would not earn me as many subscribers. I will say, however, that…
Read MoreMichael Beasley 22 Points Full Highlights (3/21/2018)
I don’t know what the DTB all-time record is for earliest-ending highlight video is, but this performance has got to be up there. Michael Beasley scored a bucket with 11:40 remaining in the third quarter. And that was it. No more Beasley. He did some more things, but they were all un-highlight-worthy. Looking at this…
Read MoreKelly Olynyk 22 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (3/21/2018)
These Kelly Olynyk fake handoffs are getting out of control. Do these dumbass NBA players not even watch film? It’s like his only move, it’s the only way he can do anything, and these meatballs are still letting him do it. Kyle O’Quinn, you need to take a good hard look at yourself and remind…
Read MoreJayson Tatum 23 Points Full Highlights (3/20/2018)
This video is absolutely stuffed to the brim with highlight plays. I don’t know if Jayson Tatum is just an unstoppable highlights machine or what, but it seemed like every play that he made in this video deserved at least one or two additional replays to remind us how awesome it was. Even better, the…
Read MoreJamal Crawford 20 Points Full Highlights (3/20/2018)
Jamal Crawford just had a REVENGE GAME against his team of the past few seasons, the Los Angeles Clippers. This was basically him telling Doc Rivers to his face, “I don’t need DeNoFreeThrows Jordan, Blake Griffinefficient, or Christine Paulina to get me to the second round in the West – I can do it with…
Read MoreTroy Daniels 18 Points Full Highlights (3/20/2018)
So, Devin Booker was out for this game (I consider his injury suspicious because of the whole tanking thing that’s going on league-wide, but I’ll keep my mouth shut), and a warm body had to be found to soak up those minutes – what better warm body to use as a minutes-sponge than Devin Booker…
Read MoreIan Clark 19 Points Full Highlights (3/20/2018)
Ian “The Clarksman” Clark did me a favor by having a good scoring game immediately after I conceived of his new moniker. Now I look like a genius for coming up with a nickname that praises his shooting ability. For now, just pretend that this video isn’t nothing but floaters, and also pretend that floaters…
Read MoreJusuf Nurkic 21 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (3/20/2018)
I’ve ragged heavily on Jusuf Nurkic in the past for being out-of-control with his scoring moves and for taking ill-advised shots. I’m not going to backtrack and say that he wasn’t doing those things in past games, because he definitely was, but I will acknowledge that Nurkic was under control and composed in this game,…
Read MoreAl-Farouq Aminu 22 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (3/20/2018)
Al-Farouq Aminu looks slightly less like a hobo now that he’s got hair constrained in braids of some kind, but he still mostly looks like a disheveled hobo who could have drunkenly stumbled into the arena and procured from the gift shop a jersey with his name blazoned across the back. Maybe security tried to…
