Jusuf Nurkic 21 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (12/29/2018)

It happened again. The Blazers met the Warriors in a rematch of their game three days ago and guess what? The Warriors still didn’t have an answer for Jusuf Nurkic. Kevon Looney and Draymond Green still couldn’t handle all 300 pounds of his Grade-B Bosnian Man-meat (B for Bosnian). This time around, Nurkic scored from…

E’Twaun Moore 21 Points Full Highlights (12/29/2018)

E’Twaun Moore was in an extended slump for pretty much the entire month of December, and this one good game isn’t enough evidence to say that the slump has definitely concluded. He had one decent game back on December 5th, where he scored seventeen points on sixteen shot attempts, but aside from that game and…

Mikal Bridges 17 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (12/29/2018)

When I saw that Mikal Bridges made a three-pointer near the end of this game with just a second left on the clock, my first thought was: is that Suns commentator who isn’t Eddie Johnson going to have time to tell us that Bridges is proud to own the three-point zone and that Fulton Homes…

Devonte’ Graham 11 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (12/29/2018)

OFFICIAL DTB NOTICE: Viewers should note that Devonte’ Graham is not the same player as Treveon Graham, the guy who played for the Hornets last season and now plays for the Nets. They are two totally different people and neither of them is related to Joey Graham or Stephen Graham. So if you are perusing…

Tomas Satoransky 20 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (12/29/2018)

Tomas Satoransky was digging through his duffel bag, looking for the second sock of his pair, when he noticed Wizards coach Scott Brooks walking towards him. Scott had a very deliberate look on his face as he walked towards Tomas, so Tomas quickly switched from his “locker-room vulgarity” personality to his “taking things seriously for…

Larry Nance Jr. 18 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (12/29/2018)

Larry Nance Jr., while a fine player in his own right, has a lot of work to do if he wants to catch his father in career accolades and accomplishments. The original Larry Nance scored 15,000 career points, grabbed 7,000 rebounds, had three All-Star appearances, and once scored 45 points in a game. Meanwhile, Junior…

Trae Young 21 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (12/29/2018)

This video was made under false pretenses. In my unending naivety, I assumed that the box-score for this game would be correct, and that Trae Young had a near-double-double with 21 points and nine assists. Foolishly, I took the box-score at face value, thinking that the statistics it portrayed would be accurate. That was not…

Cedi Osman 22 Points Full Highlights (12/29/2018)

I can’t tell what I’m seeing with Cedi Osman. Is he good? Is he bad? Is this potential we’re seeing, or just the random noise produced when you put any semi-talented player in the NBA? Is he Mongolian? Is he Turkish? Is he a direct descendant of Attila, or Suleiman? Is he Kyle Korver, or…

Nikola Jokic 23 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (12/29/2018)

Nikola Jokic, supposedly, has older brothers that used to torment him all the time when they were kids. And I thank them for doing that, because their brotherly bullying has made Jokic the tough dude he is today. But I was thinking: has anyone tried to turn them into basketball players? It doesn’t matter how…

Dante Exum 13 Points/13 Assists Full Highlights (12/29/2018)

Damn, this replacement Dante Exum I got after the initial Dante Exum I received was broken is great. This is what I expected out of it when I first placed the order a couple years ago. I don’t know what happened to the first one; I read all the included instructions and was really gentle…
