RJ Barrett 19 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2020)

The answer to the question “Who on the Knicks will step up in the absence of Marcus Morris?”: nobody. Nobody stepped up and the result was getting drubbed by the Lakers in a game that was essentially over in the third quarter and where the Knicks went 4-of-20 from three. But rookie RJ Barrett made…

Taurean Prince 21 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2020)

Taurean Prince was a pretty good player the last two years. Good enough where there were points where I was getting tired of making vids for all the time, which is a sure sign that a player is playing at a high level. He wasn’t quite as good in his third year with the Hawks…

Nemanja Bjelica 19 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2020)

Merry Christmas Nemanja Bjelica! For some reason I thought that Eastern Orthodox peeps celebrated that on Monday the 6th, but no, it’s definitely Tuesday the 7th, as the commentators so kindly informed me. I’m dumb. Forgive me. Another thing I’m ignorant of: what sort of crazy rituals they do in Serbia to celebrate. I presume…

Jaren Jackson Jr. 21 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2020)

Everyone’s thinking it, so let’s just put it out there: Jaren Jackson Jr. should be in the three-point shootout. Remember, the first and arguably only priority of the All-Star weekend three point contest is entertainment. It’s not meant to determine who the best shooter is. It’s not meant to showcase the best shooters by percentage….

Dillon Brooks 28 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2020)

Dillon “Dellin Brooker”* Brooks is what they call a “walking bucket”. At least in some games. Lots of games, he takes some shots, makes a few of them, and that’s that. But once in a while, he has a game where he makes tough shot after tough shot and you wonder how a player like…

Ja Morant 25 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (1/7/2020)

Ja Morant is a great rookie, by far the best out of all the 2019 draftees right now. And he’ll probably remain by far the best even after a certain Fatty McWaddle makes his return from whatever fat-related ailment is currently sidelining him. The ROTY of the Year award is his to lose, but he’s…

Jarrett Culver 24 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2020)

Not shown in this video: Jarrett Culver attempting a wide open potential game-tying three with 40 seconds left and doinking it off the back iron. The way I’m phrasing it makes it seem like some sort of horrible gaffe that would be perpetrated only by a complete bust, but missing open threes is fine. And…

Tony Snell 18 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2020)

Tony Snell, somehow, is getting worse at accumulating stats that aren’t points. For a guy who was already very poor in that area, this is a disturbing development. His rebounding is at a career low. His assists are actually fine, but steals and blocks, very low. Turnovers are also extremely low, which is a good…

Oshae Brissett 12 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2020)

In a stunning rebuke of the conventional NBA-player style of putting apostrophes wherever they want in their name, Oshae Brissett has resolutely refused to include even one of the punctuation marks. “O’Shae” just looks a whole lot better, but Brissett has his convictions and he’s sticking with them. I respect that. Problem is, whenever I…

Sekou Doumbouya 15 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (1/7/2020)

“Dear Diary, I can’t believe it. That rookie from France has had another good game. I tried so hard to destroy his confidence and prematurely end his career with my unfair treatment of him, but now, when I have no choice but to give him minutes, he plays like a ten-year veteran. I don’t even…
