JaVale McGee 16 Points/5 Blocks Full Highlights (10/31/2018)

The Lakers might not be doing nearly as well as their fans want (they’re 3-5 at the time of this writing and barely beat a bad Mavs squad), but, hey, JaVale McGee is putting up monster numbers so I’m totally cool with it. I couldn’t care less if the new-look Lakers led by Jabroni Lames…

Jae Crowder 18 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (10/31/2018)

Jae Crowder is a theoretical 6MOTY of the Year candidate given that he never starts games but still gets around thirty minutes of on-court action. The only problem is, thirteen points per game isn’t really going to do it when the voters are only looking for the brainless chucker who chucked the most brainless shots….

E’Twaun Moore 21 Points Full Highlights (10/31/2018)

Never is E’Twaun Moore’s “Eat One More” nickname more appropriate than on Halloween night. My apartment doesn’t get a whole lot of trick-or-treating visitors, but I do get a couple, so I make sure to have a bowl of candy at the ready for all the little goblins and witches and superheroes. The way I…

Mikal Bridges 16 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (10/31/2018)

I came into this highlight-making excursion wanting to find out exactly how “Mikal” is supposed to be pronounced, and I left it not much closer to my goal. I thought it would just be pronounced “Michael”, you know, like normal, but apparently it’s not, because that variation was not uttered even one time that I…

Nikola Mirotic 26 Points Full Highlights (10/31/2018)

Nikola Mirotic is edging towards being too good for my channel at this point. I’ll give it a few more weeks, but if he’s still averaging 23, he’s outta here. I’ve already excised Tim Hardaway Jr., more because his game pisses me off than anything, but also because he’s scoring 25 a game. Mirotic’s game…

Joe Harris 23 Points Full Highlights (10/31/2018)

Even with that 14-three performance, Klay Thompson has made fewer threes this season than Joe Harris, which lends credence to my theory that Harris could be just as good as Thompson if he was on the Warriors instead. This is a hard theory to do empirical testing on, but I’ve seen enough of both players…

Domantas Sabonis Career High 30 Points/0 Missed Field Goals Full Highlights (10/31/2018)

In case you didn’t hear about it, Domantas Sabonis just scored 30 points on 12-for-12 shooting. Everyone’s busy not paying attention because of some other thing that happened tonight which wasn’t even that cool because it involved missed shots, but there’s got to be a few Lithuanians or something who care about this right now….

Nikola Jokic 22 Points/9 Assists/3 Blocks Full Highlights (10/31/2018)

This is the second game in a row Nikola Jokic has been one statistical unit short of a triple-double. At least this means he’s not a stat-padder. He was a rebound short last time, and you absolutely know that if he wanted to grab a rebound, he would grab a rebuond. Assists are iffier but,…

Spencer Dinwiddie 25 Points/1 Game-Winner Full Highlights (10/31/2018)

Spencer Dinwiddie scored his first points tonight with 5 minutes to go in the third quarter. A series of clutch threes later, he walked off the floor with 25 points and the win. In honor of D-Rose, I’m not even going to tell you how many points Dinwiddie would’ve had had he gotten to do…

Wendell Carter 25 Points/5 Assists/3 Blocks Full Highlights (10/31/2018)

I don’t know if anyone has any highlight-watching energy left after seeing a left-for-dead Derrick Rose score 50 and then tear up as his teammates mobbed him (I left that part out so that I wouldn’t make you guys cry as well). So this video is really more for future people who want to see…
