This is what happens when I charge blindly into the highlight creation process without giving it the proper consideration that it deserves. I end up making a highlight video where the amount of free throws made (7) exceeds the amount of buckets made (6). Anybody who has a solid grasp on the concept of numbers will look at those two numbers and see something is amiss. But DownToBuck, being so eager to make a highlight video of an entertaining scorer, completely ignored those numbers in deciding which video was up next in his aptly-named “Videos that DownToBuck Needs to Make Today” queue.
I will say that the buckets Trier scores are, indeed, quite entertaining. He’s an eager midrange shooter and the flow of this video is not interrupted by layups (“lame-ups”). However, it is interrupted by a steady stream of free throws, many of them coming on run-of-the-mill personal fouls rather than shooting fouls. That’s lame. They should call free throws “lame throws” on account of how lame they are.
If I had been paying more attention, I would have made a bunch of different vids before this one. But I wasn’t paying attention. I ran in there screaming “Trier scored 22 I bet he made eleven pullup midrange jimbos while his coach clutched his head in rage!” and started making the video without even really looking at the rest of the box-score. That was my bad. I’ve learned my lesson.
