Marc Gasol 29 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (11/14/2018)

The giant, bearded man walked triumphantly through the grand stone arch that was the gate to the realm. “I am here as dictated by the prophecy,” he proclaimed. The keeper of the gate was a small, withered-looking old man. “Welcome,” he said softly in a voice made ragged by age. The bearded man looked around….

Al-Farouq Aminu 18 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (11/14/2018)

This video was ruined (RUINED I SAY) by the fact that the commentators never really wanted to talk about Al-Farouq Aminu. And by the fact that seven of his points were scored in what I would consider to be “The Time of Garbage”. But back to the commentary. These ESPN talking heads were too busy…

Pascal Siakam 17 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2018)

Simply due to the extreme volume of highlight videos I’m having to make for the dude, Pascal Siakam is quickly approaching a coveted status among scrubs featured on my channel: THE OFFICIAL “HAS TO SCORE TWENTY POINTS” THRESHOLD. In case the wording isn’t clear, scrubs who reach this threshold have to score twenty points to…

Isaiah Canaan 19 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (11/14/2018)

Isaiah “The Canaanite”/”The Canaanball” Canaan seems to think that very highly of his ability to shoot threes, because he was just pulling up from behind the long line like it was nothing. Have we checked Canaan’s person to see if he is in possession of a certain golden amulet forged in the fires underneath Oracle…

JaVale McGee 20 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2018)

Whenever I think about JaVale McGee, I think fondly back to his days as a Nugget, when he was the preferred lob target of one Andre Miller. McGee had 175 dunks in the 2012-13 season, and, just eyeballing the list, it seems like about half of them were courtesy of old man Miller, and the…

Pat Connaughton 16 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2018)

Blazers fans: was Pat Connaughton this good for your team? He had that one sick game to start the season last year, but I don’t know the deets of how he played on a nightly basis. I’m only asking because I’m happily surprised at how well he’s contributing this year. He’s kinda averaging power forward…

E’Twaun Moore 31 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2018)

E’Twaun Moore floater-ilation: Y/N? Arguments in favor of Y: -He has (according to Ian Eagle) the best floater in the NBA -Someone who is the best at something should be recognized with an -ilation -I like E’Twaun Moore -Would make up for the surprisingly lame Anthony Davis dunkilation Arguments in favor of N: -Difficulty nailing…

Shaquille Harrison 16 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2018)

There is very little you can do to convince me that Shaquille Harrison is not the third component of what was previously thought to be the Harrison “twins”. He’s a little shorter, and the authorities claim he’s a year older (IS LIE), but there’s no rule that says that twins/triplets have to be the same…

Tyler Johnson 24 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2018)

First order of business: mad respect to Tyler Johnson for shaving his face and not retaining the caveman beard from last year. It takes big cojones (not little chiquita ones) to admit that your facial hair sucked by getting rid of it. I myself was once cursed with a bad beard, but I am now…

T.J. Warren 27 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2018)

That’s four straight 20-burgers for T.J. Warren after his 0-point performance a little over a week ago. It’s going to take a while to undo the damage that was done to his scoring averages, but I believe that this can be the year he averages 20 for real. He was so close last year, but…
