Dennis Smith Jr. Career High 31 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (2/8/2019)

Dennis Smith Jr. would have had a lot more points if he could just hit free throws. He went 11 of 19, which is unacceptable for a guard. After detailed frame-by-frame analysis of each one of his attempts, both makes and misses, I think I have determined what’s wrong with his free throws and will…

Kenrich Williams 19 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2019)

Over the span of two minutes in the third quarter, Kenrich Williams scored 13 straight points for the Pelicans. If he had done the same but in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter instead in this 122-117 win, everyone would be freaking out. Literally everyone, but I don’t see how the scenario that…

Deandre Ayton 23 Points/6 Dunks Full Highlights (2/8/2019)

Somehow, even without Devin Booker, the Suns managed to make it a game against the Warriors, who were playing at full-strength. With four and a half minutes left, they were only down by four points. The fact that they played this well should be encouraging, because it means that their miscellaneous cast of project players…

Nikola Jokic Triple Double 27 Pts/10 Rebs/10 Asts Full Highlights (2/8/2019)

OFFICIAL LIST OF THINGS I BLAME FOR THE NUGGETS LOSING TO THE SIXERS POWER RANKINGS 1. Nikola Jokic. A triple-double is cool, but a fifty-point quadruple-double with ten steals would have likely resulted in a win. 2. J.J. Redick. 34 points. Why did he decide to go off in the first game of the Butler/Harris/Embiid/Simmons…

Marquese Chriss 13 Points Cavaliers Debut Full Highlights (2/8/2019)

Marquese “Marqueso” “Sea Cheese” Chriss was a total afterthought in Houston. He made one three-pointer the entire time he was there. Now, in his first game with the Cavaliers, he hit three three-pointers and also had two dunks. Isn’t that exactly what the Rockets want out of their players? Dunks and threes? A lob target…

Collin Sexton 27 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2019)

Collin “Collinoscopy” Sexton has now had two games in a row, meaning that people who had written off his entire career on the basis of a month’s worth of extremely horrific, nearly coma-inducing shooting can come crawling back and admit to all of us that maybe he’ll turn out okay after all. I wasn’t one…

Lauri Markkanen 31 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2019)

Before you get all mad at me for not including Lauri Markkanen’s eighteen rebounds in the title of this video, let me remind you that eighteen rebounds is not even Markkanen’s highest rebounding total this season. He got nineteen in a game once. So this isn’t even exciting. My heart rate is not elevated at…

Otto Porter 18 Points Bulls Debut Full Highlights (2/8/2019)

Bulls without Otto Porter: 1 19-point or more win in 54 attempts. Bulls with Otto Porter: 1 19-point or more win in 1 attempt. It doesn’t take a genius to see the trend here: Otto Porter is the franchise-changer that Chicago desperately needed. Although, in truth, you can change the “Otto Porter” to “Jabari Parker”…

Bobby Portis 30 Points Wizards Debut Full Highlights (2/8/2019)

Bobby Portis walked towards the locker room after the Wizards’ win over the Cavs. He had been delayed by almost half an hour by joyous fans begging him to sign their stuff, and, wanting to make a good impression on his new fanbase, Bobby had obliged. Now he was arriving to the presumably celebratory locker…
