It’s safe to say that, according to the national media, nothing occurred in this Lakers/Nuggets matchup other than LeBron passing MJ. I already bemoaned this fact in my last video for Alex Caruso’s career-high 15 points, but allow me to continue bemoaning. Because here’s the deal: Will Barton totally DOMINATED the Lakers in this game,…

Alex Caruso 15 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2019)
Lost in the brouhaha about NoDefense “LeBron James Suckballs passing Michael Jordan on the all-time scoring leaderboards (yawn… wake me up when he passes Kareem) is the fact that Alex Caruso just tied his career-high. I can’t tell if 15 points seems low or high for his career-high. On one hand, it’s low because we…
Read MoreDerrick Favors 25 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2019)
I’ve been too nice to players recently. Even players worthy of criticism, worthy of my harshest words, I’ve been handling them with kid-gloves. Is it because Adam Silver said something about how NBA are more lonely and isolated than ever and I don’t want their feeling to get hurt because of the words of some…
Read MoreKelly Olynyk 22 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2019)
Kelly Olynyk, for reasons known only to Coach Spoo, played 44 and a half minutes out of a possible 48 in this game. That’s the most minutes he has ever played. He took that time to score 22 points and grab 11 boards; meanwhile, Hassan “Why Do I Have To Watch The Whitest Player Ever…
Read MoreFrank Kaminsky 20 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2019)
I just realized that Michael Kidd-Gilchrist was recently excised from the Hornets’ rotation in favor of Frank Kaminsky. Previously, I hadn’t bothered to look at whose playing time was affected by Kaminsky’s re-insertion into the lineup. I just assumed it was, like, Bismack Biyombo or Willy Hernangomez or Cody Zeller. I didn’t expect that coach…
Read MoreLuke Kennard 21 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2019)
Luke “The ‘Nard” Kennard is getting unshackled right as the Pistons are putting together a large winning streak. I don’t want to attribute the Pistons’ recent success entirely to The ‘Nard, since there’s a few other things currently going right for the Pistons that most certainly won’t going right for them earlier in the season:…
Read MoreJustin Jackson 18 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2019)
When Justin Jackson got traded from the Kings to the Mavs as part of the earth-shattering Harrison Barnes trade, I’m sure there was a subset of Mavs fans who thought some or all of the following things: -“The Mavs are getting a good young shooting guard to strengthen the bench” -“Justin Jackson could be a…
Read MoreDerrick White 18 Points/9 Assists/6 Blocks Full Highlights (3/6/2019)
Derrick White’s 6 blocks in this game are the most in any single game by a guard this season, tied with Jrue Holiday. No other guard even has 5. Obviously, when it comes to guards and blocking shots, you’re getting a lot of strips and knockaways, which is a lot lamer than bigmen rejecting dunks…
Read MoreLuka Doncic 31 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/6/2019)
We are honestly way, way, WAY past the point of Luka Doncic being too good for my channel. That point was passed a long time ago. However, since he was not actually named an All-Star (except the All-Star of all of our hearts), my self-imposed rules say that I can’t remove him from my channel…
Read MoreJabari Parker 20 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2019)
It worries me how little the Wizards broadcast seemed to care about showing replays of Jabari Parker. He had some really aesthetically-pleasing dunks, but the exact level of aesthetic pleasure they offered couldn’t be accurately determined because there weren’t enough slow-motion replays from different angles to get a real feel for the dunks. The in-game…
