Some people end up with a reputation that they’ll just never shake off no matter how many years go by with improved behavior. For example, Jeremy from my second-grade class will always be “The Puker” even though he only puked one time. He puked right on the “Clifford the Big Red Dog” beanbag/pillow thing that…

Jerami Grant 18 Points Full Highlights (12/29/2019)
As if I needed any more proof that Paul Millsap is currently, and always has been, ruining the Nuggets, take a look at this telltale stat which I found buried among the dust of the internetubes: The Nuggets are 3-0 when Jerami Grant starts. Boom. Any possible counterargument that was forming on your lips about…
Read MoreBrandon Clarke 18 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (12/29/2019)
According to Win Shares, which are the perfect advanced stat if the criterion for perfection is “making Brandon Clarke look as good as possible”, Brandon Clarke is the best rookie in the 2019 draft class. He is helped by a large portion of his class being either injured or just straight-up bad, but he is…
Read MoreDillon Brooks 20 Points Full Highlights (12/29/2019)
Dillon Brooks has come a long way since his NBA debut. In that game, he scored 19 points. Now, a couple years later, he has scored 20. Just amazing progression from a guy who was drafted in the second round, who not many people to succeed at the next level. To go from not scoring…
Read MoreRichaun Holmes 18 Points Full Highlights (12/29/2019)
16 points in the first half for Richaun Holmes, 2 in the second half. I’ve spent a lot of time talking this guy up as the best player on the Kings, all things considered (and I will stand by that assertion until the day comes when he is no longer on the Kings and is…
Read MoreMalik Monk 18 Points Full Highlights (12/29/2019)
The NBA really messed a golden (or should I say… TEALen! hahahahah) opportunity to have both teams in a game wear teal jerseys. My opinion on teal is well known and should not need to be restated, but I’ll restate it anyway: it’s the best color on the entire planet Earth as well as the…
Read MoreE’Twaun Moore 25 Points Full Highlights (12/29/2019)
Only a few years ago, during what I call the “E’Twaun Moore Era” of Pelicans Basketball, E’Twaun Moore was playing so well that I felt compelled to name a whole era after him. His PPGs weren’t eye-popping, but he was one of the most efficient players in the league during the 2017-18 season, starting 80…
Read MoreChris Clemons 16 Points/9 Assists/1 Dunk Full Highlights (12/29/2019)
At one point during this game, Chris Clemons was listed as having 10 assists. The Rockets commentators even mentioned him having a double-double, so the stats they were looking at also had Clemons with 10. But now that I’m here making this vid, everywhere I look says he only had 9. They also gave Isaiah…
Read MoreDanuel House 22 Points Full Highlights (12/29/2019)
For people who were confused by the rotations that the Rockets were running tonight, I’ve made a handy comparison chart: Danuel House = James Harden Chris Clemons = Russell Westbrook Isaiah Hartenstein = Clint Capela Austin Rivers = Austin Rivers Personally, I watched this game pretending that the Rockets’ big three listed in that chart…
Read MoreNemanja Bjelica 27 Points Full Highlights (12/29/2019)
DTB’S OFFICIAL* FUN** FACT*** OF THE DAY****: this is the first 20-point game for Nemanja Bjelica this season. He had a 30-point game, and a 19-point game, but no games in the 20-29 range. Isn’t that fun? If you don’t think that fact was fun, don’t blame me, check the disclaimers at the bottom of…
