https://youtu.be/EpROmySEKtc Rhetorical question of the day: is Chris “The BoucheBag” Boucher, right now, better than Pascal “Mild P” Siakam? Screw it, remove the “rhetorical” part. I’m just straight up asking the question, even though I, you, and my tubby little kitty Japurri Purrker all know full well what the answer is. Actually, screw it, remove…

Terry Rozier 35 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (1/2/2020)
https://youtu.be/bv4f5oIy2Wg I hate to repeat myself, but when I entered into my state of semi-retirement, one of my explicit goals was to avoid having to make way too many videos for a given player in a given season. I wanted to spread the love, so to speak. Not just keep making vids for the same…

Read MoreSviatoslav Mykhailiuk 14 Points Full Highlights (1/2/2020)
A mere four days ago I wrote these words in the description of a Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk highlight video: “Is it wrong of me to feel like these middling scoring performances from Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk are no longer exciting me?” That sentiment still holds true today, except I have moved from simple boredom with Mykhailiuk’s underwhelming scoring…
Read MoreSekou Doumbouya 10 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (1/2/2020)
OFFICIAL REASONS TO MAKE THIS VIDEO POWER RANKINGS 1. Sekou Doumbouya is a fun name to say and to spell 2. Pistons fans have attached all of their hopes, literally all of their hopes, to this guy for some reason 3. Doumbouya had two dunks 4. As the Pistons broadcast helpfully reminded us, Doumbouya is…
Read MoreRobert Covington 20 Points Full Highlights (1/2/2020)
If you listen to the commentary of this video (and I don’t blame you if you leave it muted by default, since it is often insufferable), you’ll notice the Timberwolves commentary crew waxing romantic about Robert Covington, and how it’s great that he was somewhat of a focal point for the offense in this game….
Read MoreWendell Carter 18 Points Full Highlights (1/2/2020)
It feels like the universe as a whole has forgotten about the fact that Wendell Carter Jr. is one of the most promising young scoring bigs in the league right now. And when I say “universe”, I really do mean the entire universe. Not only have humans from planet Earth lost track of WCJ and…
Read MoreRichaun Holmes 18 Points Full Highlights (1/2/2020)
Faintly, at the end of this video as Richaun Holmes was shooting free throws, I could hear “MVP” chants. It would be easy to dismiss the chants as ironic encouragement from a rowdy section of the stands for a player who had just missed their first free throw and was hoping to hit the second,…
Read MoreJae Crowder 19 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/2/2020)
Everybody talks about Andre Iguodala getting traded from the Grizzlies soon. I won’t go into a huge amount of depth here about my feelings on the matter, but it boils down to, why does a fringe All-Star type dude who was carried to rings by better players and is the worst FMVP of all time…
Read MoreMyles Turner 21 Points Full Highlights (1/2/2020)
The Pacers must have decided that the combo of Myles Turner and Domantas Sabonis can work out, because they’re now paying both of them a ton of money for the next few years. A straight 18 million per year for Turner for four years, and very slightly more for Sabonis with the same amount of…
