Khem Birch 13 Points Full Highlights (3/14/2019)

Khem “The AlKhemist” Birch ended last season with a unprecedented streak of 6 consecutive double-digit scoring games. “Unprecedented” in that he had never come close to doing such a thing before, not in that no one ever in the history of the NBA had done such a thing. On the contrary, I can think of…

Jalen Brunson 20 Points Full Highlights (3/14/2019)

Jalen Brunson, like almost everyone on the Mavericks, didn’t score any points in the fourth quarter of this game against the Nuggets, a game which ended with them losing by one. Luka Doncic did the bulk of the scoring in the quarter, with 8 points, while Dwight Powell added two free throws. And that was…

Paul Millsap 33 Points Full Highlights (3/14/2019)

I’ve been dissing Paul Millsap for the whole time he’s been on the Nuggets, and I will continue to diss him until I’m all dissed out (and if he robs Nikola Jokic of a title this year by being himself, I’m not going to be dissed out for a long time). But there’s no question…

Luka Doncic 24 Points/9 Assists/1 Dunk Full Highlights (3/14/2019)

Luka Doncic was already a lock for the ROTY of the Year award, but how much MORE of a lock would he be if had the opportunity to put “game winning poster dunk on national TV” on his resume? He could put it right between the bullet points that say “6 years experience playing Fortnite…

Alex Caruso 16 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (3/14/2019)

As usual, I had a reason for not putting “Career High” in the title of this video (I don’t just forget about things as important as a role-player’s career high). Yes, it’s true: 16 points are the most points Alex Caruso has ever scored in a game. Not just in the NBA, but in college…

Norman Powell 20 Points Full Highlights (3/14/2019)

This is the first year of Norman “Normal Powenn” Powell’s shiny new 4-year, 42 million dollar contract. 10 million dollars per year isn’t looking as bad for him as it did last year, when he was mysteriously sucking really large eggs. The Raptors don’t especially need him to be good, since they have talent in…

D.J. Augustin 20 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/14/2019)

Watching D.J. Augustin lay the ball up on an uncontested runout caused me to wonder: can D.J. Augustin dunk the ball? Has he ever dunked the ball? Has ever even ATTEMPTED to dunk the ball? My initial inclination was that, yes, D.J. Augustin must have dunked at some point in his NBA career. He’s short,…

Bojan Bogdanovic 23 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (3/14/2019)

It seems like every time I make a Bojan Bogdanovic video, he’s hitting the hardwood multiple times in painful-looking ways. The exact reason for this I cannot ascertain, but it must be a combination of: -His disregard for his own safety -His bald spots causing balance issues -His overwhelming desire to shoot free throws more…

Marcus Morris 21 Points Full Highlights (3/14/2019)

An underrated aspect of the Boston Celtics’ disappointing season (remember, according to Bill Simmons, they were supposed to win 67 games and high-five a lot) is Marcus Morris. The first three months of the season, he was playing like a borderline (very borderline), fringe (very fringe) All-Star. He was shooting way above 40% from three…
