Kris Dunn was disappointing enough during his rookie season with the Timberwolves that he was mostly considered a throw-in on the blockbuster Jimmy Butler trade. The Bulls were probably like, “Can you also send over that bust dude you have? That way your fans don’t have to think about him and get mad anymore,” and…

Jarrett Allen 19 Points Full Highlights (12/8/2019)
The chemistry from Spencer Dinwiddie going to Jarrett Allen is great. One of the best connections in the league, probably. Dinwiddie is excellent at finding Allen whether he’s rolling to the rim or standing in the dunker’s spot. But the chemistry from Jarrett Allen going to Spencer Dinwiddie? Not so great. This relationship is very…
Read MoreJabari Parker 19 Points Full Highlights (12/8/2019)
Jabari Parker must have used up all his juice against the Bucks because since then, he’s been pretty bad. He scored 33 points that game (plus 14 rebounds and 5 assists) in his quest for sweet revenge, a performance that pushed him to the very borders of eligibility on my channel. But then he came…
Read MoreAlex Caruso 16 Points Full Highlights (12/8/2019)
Alex Caruso follows in the footsteps of great Lakers “meme” players of the past. The franchise’s history is replete with players who were only admired in a mocking or sarcastic manner; often the player is white (go figure). Caruso is only the latest. Here’s just a sample from the last ten seasons: 2009-2010: Didier Ilunga-Mbenga…
Read MoreOG Anunoby 19 Points Full Highlights (12/8/2019)
Great! A few consecutive losses mean that Raptors fans will not be motivated to watch any media pertaining to this game against the 76ers. I’m not calling them out or anything, it’s just a fact that after a loss, a fanbase isn’t going to want to rehash painful memories by watching highlight videos. Even if…
Read MoreMiles Bridges 20 Points Full Highlights (12/8/2019)
Attention James Borrego: stop playing Miles Bridges in garbage time. I’ve noticed this happening multiples times now. Just because other teams do it (mainly just the Hawks with Trae Young, and he paid the price by getting kneed in the mouth by Bridges with two minutes to go) doesn’t mean that it’s cool or acceptable…
Read MoreSpencer Dinwiddie 24 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (12/8/2019)
Brooklyn Nets record with Kyrie Irving: 4-7 Brooklyn Nets record without Kyrie irving: 9-3 I have a narrative here, and I’ll be a monkey’s uncle if anyone is going to come in here and try to tell me that the Nets AREN’T better without Cryrie Virgin taking way too many shots and having way too…
Read MoreBam Adebayo 21 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (12/8/2019)
I’m looking at the stats right now, and what I’m seeing is that Bam Adebayo’s third season and Giannis Antetokounmpo’s third season are quite comparable. Per minute, Adebayo has got a significant edge in rebounding, Giannis has got a slight edge in scoring, and they’re about the same in assists, steals, and blocks. I feel…
Read MoreTim Hardaway Jr. 29 Points/9 Threes Full Highlights (12/8/2019)
With Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson sidelined due to various injuries and disfigurements, this is what we have to accept as a sick three-point shooting performance. Only 9 threes, I know it seems paltry compared to what we were used to with the splash brothers, but there is no un-injuring them. There have been 6…
Read MoreTroy Brown 22 Points Full Highlights (12/8/2019)
This was actually a really nice scoring game for Troy Brown. I went into it thinking it would be a bunch of lame shots that somehow propelled him to 22 points, but no. He had a nice variety of stuff going on in this game. Pullup midrange jimbos? I haven’t been watching a lot of…
