Out of the 32 highlight videos I made for the games that occurred on November 27th, this one should have been, like, fifth or six to be made. Not 32nd. I’m not sure what I was thinking with waiting so long for this one, but what’s done is done and I can’t go back to…

Jae Crowder 20 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2019)
I am of the opinion that banked-in threes should, under no circumstances, count for real-life points in a real-life basketball game. At any level. Pickup, high school, college, pro, Europe, it doesn’t matter. Banked-in threes are always unintentional and they should count as misses. Always. No exceptions. There are no, like, formal polls or studies…
Read MoreBam Adebayo 17 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (11/27/2019)
I was all set to cease my highlight-making excursion with the P.J. Washington video that was uploaded prior to this one. The fact of Bam Adebayo’s 17-point, 8-assist was known to me, but I kept making excuses to myself so that I wouldn’t have to do it. “Oh, he had too many free throws.” “Nah,…
Read MoreP.J. Washington 17 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2019)
Why am I still uploading highlight videos right now? I’m on video #29 for last night’s games (I think so, anyway; counting that high is hard), and I’m deep into the afternoon, and now I’m competing with the full might of the NFL for the attention of sports fans. How am I supposed to topple…
Read MoreDarius Garland 16 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2019)
OFFICIAL DTB DISCLAIMER: Darius Garland had eight turnovers in this game to go with his single assist. That’s, to put it nicely, not a good stat. There are a bunch of players who have gotten eight turnovers in a game this season, and even a few who got nine. But none of them did it…
Read MoreJoe Harris 22 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2019)
Last season, Joe Harris had the highest three-point percentage among players who attempted at least 100 threes, at 47.4%. And it’s not like he squeaked in under the cutoff either. He attempted 386 three-pointers that season. To combine that volume with that accuracy is pretty much totally nuts and nigh-unbelievable. If you raise the cutoff…
Read MoreTerence Davis 15 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (11/27/2019)
Terence “The ‘Rence is Too Damn High” Davis is the one person standing in the way of Fred VanVleet playing 48 minutes per game. If Davis was like every other undrafted rookie and was borderline unplayable, then the Raptors’ point guard options with Lowry out would be very limited. Limited enough that FVV would be…
Read MoreKelly Olynyk 19 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2019)
How could roster-construction errors of such magnitude be allowed to happen? The amount of redundancy on the Heat roster is astounding. Kelly Olynyk and Meyers Leonard are the SAME player. They are literally, besides being two separate human beings (and one of them being Canadian), the same. Not only is it a waste of a…
Read MoreIsh Smith 21 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (11/27/2019)
The ‘Zards need to figure out a way to have Ish Smith get more assists more consistently. 7 assists isn’t even a lot (especially for a solely offensive team like the ‘Zards), but it’s a season high for Smith. His season low is 3, which means he’s really good at getting some but not too…
Read MoreAlec Burks 23 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (11/27/2019)
Alec Burks is now averaging a career high in points, at nearly 15 per game. Obviously, some weird stuff had to happen for him to get this kind of opportunity with the Warriors, but that’s the nature of the NBA. Weird stuff happens all the time. I wasn’t expecting Burks to do much this year,…
