Tyus Jones 15 Points Full Highlights (12/26/2019)

I would like to issue an OFFICIAL DTB APOLOGY for my heinous actions on the night of October 23rd. That night, Tyus Jones scored fifteen points and dropped seven dimes in his debut with the Memphis Grizzlies. As Jones has never been a player known for scoring a lot of points, and given that a…

Gorgui Dieng 21 Points Full Highlights (12/26/2019)

“Dear Diary, One troubling ritual that the people of Minnesota take part in is that of making “snow-men”. When the cursed white sand falls to the ground in large enough quantities, the younglings of this land will run outside, sometimes even while the cursed precipitation is still falling, and make crude man-shaped figures from it….

Joe Ingles 26 Points Full Highlights (12/26/2019)

As a prominent resident of the country/continent of Australia, Joe Ingles, by default, speaks for the Australian citizenry on matters of national interest. He might think that he is just a run-of-the-mill sportsman with a run-of-the-mill bald spot, but the power and influence he wields over Australian public discourse is considerable. Not only that, but…

Jordan McRae 15 Points Full Highlights (12/26/2019)

OFFICIAL “MC”S POWER RANKINGS 2019-2020 EDITION: 1. CJ McCollum 2. TJ McConnell 3. JaVale McGee 4. Doug McDermott 5. Ben McLemore 6. Jordan McRae 7. Rodney McGruder 8. Patrick McCaw 9. Jordan McLaughlin 10. Alfonzo McKinnie 11. Jalen McDaniels

Robert Covington 19 Points Full Highlights (12/26/2019)

A lot of crazy stuff happened at the end of this game, some of it involving Robert Covington, some of it not involving Robert Covington, and neither team really looked like they wanted to win, but win the Timberwolves did. It had been a full month since their last victory, and it showed, because they…

Richaun Holmes 20 Points/18 Rebounds Full Highlights (12/26/2019)

I am really trying hard to find some justification for not straight-up anointing Richaun Holmes as the Kings best player right now. I’m seriously about to anoint him right here, right now, as the Kings best player, and unless someone comes in with some evidence that he’s not, it’s happening. Advanced stats notoriously love low-volume…

Bogdan Bogdanovic 19 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (12/26/2019)

Thanks to the power of YouTube, I can portray NBA players as having had a good game when the truth may be totally different. That’s the problem with highlights, which is why I encourage everyone to not ever watch my videos and instead watch the games. I also encourage people not to read these descriptions…

Marvin Bagley 18 Points Full Highlights (12/26/2019)

Right now, the idea for the Kings with regards to Marvin Bagley is for him to get the ball, and for him to try and score that ball. The thinking, presumably, is that if Bagley is going to have any great value in the NBA, it’s going to be for his scoring. So why not…

Tim Frazier 17 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (12/26/2019)

I insinuated in a previous description that Tim Frazier was never actually good and was only putting up good stats because he was getting tons of playing time on bad teams that had no other choice at the point guard position. I actually didn’t just insinuate it: I said it straight up. And for that,…

Marcus Morris 22 Points Full Highlights (12/26/2019)

Amount of two-point field goals the Brooklyn Nets made tonight: 8. Amount of two-point field goals Marcus Morris made tonight: 7. I was really hoping that Morris would have outtwopointed the Nets as a team just by himself (that honor goes to Julius Randle instead) but alas, he was one midrange jumper short. I don’t…
