Pat Connaughton 14 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2019)

I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again: it sucks to be a Bucks-themed highlights channel who specialized in scrubs and role-players while the Bucks themselves are actually good. This was a lot more fun when everything sucked, including all the players, and I could do all the Khris Middleton highlights I wanted. Now…

Alex Len 19 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2019)

Man, I’m looking at Alex Len’s stats right now, and I’m getting ticked off that no one told me how many points he was averaging this year. 10???? That’s so many. I didn’t think he’d ever hit that threshold, and now he is, like it’s no big deal. But it is a big deal. Especially…

Jalen Brunson 18 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2019)

Okay, that’s it. Time to shut down Luka Doncic for the season. I don’t care if the Mavericks (who have a vested interest in pretend he’s healthy so they can sell more tickets) say he’s good to go. If my star rookie felt a pop in his knee and I didn’t even want to win…

Eric Gordon 26 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2019)

I really need to decide if Eric Gordon is or isn’t too good for my channel. He must not be, because this video is sitting here in front of your face right now. As of right now, he isn’t, but his threshold for points before I showcase him is pretty high. Even though he kinda…

John Collins 23 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (3/10/2019)

John Collins’ previous season high in blocked shots was one. Can you believe that? As a young, athletic power forward who is near the basket on defense at least some of the time, one would expect at least one instance of Collins recording more than one block in a game. But he hasn’t. Not until…

Kelly Oubre 22 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2019)

After squandering their lead in their last matchup against the Warriors, the Suns have now beaten the Warriors fair and square on their home turf. While bandwagon fans who paid $2,000 per ticket (not to mention $30 for an oversalted “bay area chicken tenders platter”) streamed for the exits, unable to believe that their beloved…

Jeff Teague 20 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (3/10/2019)

I have previously implied (or just straight-up stated) that the only reason Jeff Teague gets tons of assists this year is because he gets to play with the assist sponge known as Karl-Anthony Towns. It was a fair statement to make, because every time Teague was getting big assist games, Towns was right there, making…

Avery Bradley 21 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2019)

Avery Bradley is playing so much better in Memphis than he was in LA (at least, he is on offense – DTB does not care about defense) that one has to wonder if the Clippers front office is feeling a little sore about the whole trade. Sure, they got Garrett Temple and JaMychal Green in…

Wayne Selden 18 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2019)

Hopefully this doesn’t come across as insensitive in any way, but I don’t understand African American hairstyles so I need a little help here. Basically, my question is this: are Wayne Selden’s dreadlock things intentionally squiggly, or was, that, like, their response to being slept on funny? I need to know. If Selden has those…

Elfrid Payton Triple Double 15 Pts/10 Rebs/10 Asts Full Highlights (3/10/2019)

I totally understand that Elfrid Payton was pretty much required to chop off that crazy hair thing he had been rocking for the previous few seasons. That thing was just gross. It gave me communicable diseases just by watching it on TV. Just thinking about that greasy, clumpy mass gives me a strong urge to…
