Maybe I’m only about to make the following allegation because Domantas Sabonis has been regrettably excluded from my channel as of four days from now, meaning that pandering to Lithuanians is no longer the number one goal of my channel, but does anybody else get the feeling that Sabonis’ triple-doubles aren’t legitimate? Like, at all?…

Cristiano Felicio 13 Points Full Highlights (2/9/2020)
The Bulls guaranteed that the “Cristiano Felicio” era of Bulls basketball would continue for many years when they gave him that 4-year, 32-million dollar deal a few seasons ago. As contracts have inflated recently, it’s become less of an egregious overpay than it was when he first signed it, but there is still no one…
Read MoreKyle Anderson 16 Points Full Highlights (2/9/2020)
As much as I hope and pray for Kyle Anderson to one day justify my predraft hype for him by turning into any kind of prolific scorer, I’m coming to the conclusion that it’s just not going to happen. Believe me, I’ve prayed every morning and night to every deity I can think of (I…
Read MoreMitchell Robinson 15 Points/5 Dunks/3 Blocks Full Highlights (2/9/2020)
Do you think Mitchell Robinson ever wistfully looks down at the opposing team’s bench and its preponderance of skilled point guards, then looks back at his own bench and feels barely-suppressed hatred for his teammates and his situation. I totally bet he does. How could he not? Witnessing first-hand the chemistry that Trae Young has…
Read MoreJae Crowder 18 Points Heat Debut Full Highlights (2/9/2020)
The ramifications of the big shuffle of mediocre role-players between the Heat, Grizzlies, and Timberwolves will take a bit of time to play out. A lot of unwanted parts changed hands. Some of the unwanted parts were wanted in their new destinations, while some of them were still unwanted. It’s fair to say that Crowder…
Read MoreDuncan Robinson 19 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (2/9/2020)
As Tony Fiorentino kindly reminded us, Duncan Robinson is currently fifth in the NBA in three-pointers made. However, I would argue that he is in first, given that the four players ahead of him should be disqualified for various reasons which I will explain below. Keep in mind that totals are tabulated before tonight’s games…
Read MoreGary Trent 22 Points Full Highlights (2/9/2020)
I may have underestimated Gary Trent when I repeatedly compared him to Tony Snell. One commentators suggestion of a different comparison, Wes Matthews, might be more appropriate at this point. The defense, the three-pointers (no bow-and-arrow celebration though), the low usage which combines nicely with the Chuck Bros of Lillard and McCollum…it matches up way…
Read MoreTrevor Ariza 21 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (2/9/2020)
Trevor Ariza has had way more good games for the Blazers in his short stint there than he ever did for the Kings earlier this season. Just to remind you, his season-high as a King was eighteen points. In nine games with the Blazers, he’s scored more than that three different times. And now I’m…
Read MoreDe’Andre Hunter 19 Points Full Highlights (2/9/2020)
OFFICIAL DTB DISCLAIMER: De’Andre Hunter had five steals in this game, and I was well aware of that fact while editing the video, but they are not shown here. My reason? Steals are notoriously random in the NBA, maybe not as random as assists and blocked shots, but still random. Often I will attempt to…
Read MoreAmir Coffey 10 Points Full Highlights (2/9/2020)
Prior to this game and my making of this highlight video, the only thing I knew about Amir Coffey was that he played for the Clippers. I also sort of knew what he looked like. I had never gotten a clear look at him, but I knew he was moderately tall and that he was…um…lighter…
