If this is how the NBA is going to be from now on, I can dig it. The Mavericks lost this one against the Rockets 149-153 (at least it was overtime, so that total isn’t as redonk as it seems at first glance), and I don’t think a single cumulative possession of defense was played…

Gary Trent Jr. 17 Points Full Highlights (7/31/2020)
Gary Trent Jr. is cool and all, but I’ve been told by about a million different Blazers fans that Anfernee Simons is their young stud of the future, and he didn’t even play in this game. What the heck, Blazers fans? Okay, so maybe I’m exaggerating about the “million” part. Maybe there are a million…
Read MoreKhem Birch 12 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (7/31/2020)
Hate to say it folks, but this vid just sucks. I was hoping to try and avoid making blatantly awful videos for the restart, but here we are, on only the second day, and I’ve gone and done it. I’m sorry. All I wanted was for people to be enriched by a Khem Birch highlight…
Read MoreMarcus Smart 23 Points Full Highlights (7/31/2020)
Fans of NBA beefs (beeves???) will be happy to find out that there is some seriously beefed-out BEEFAGE going on right now between Marcus Smart and Giannis Antetokounmpo. Well, at least Smart is attempting to beef it up with Giannis. I’m not sure that Giannis is reciprocating the beef, and I’m not sure that he…
Read MoreBrandon Clarke 21 Points Full Highlights (7/31/2020)
According to the Zlies’ commentators, who one would assume would be knowledgeable about such things, claimed in this game that Brandon Clarke was making some noise in the Sixth Man of the Year award race. Just to clear things up: no such noise is being produced by Clarke, or by anyone else, except for Grizzlies…
Read MoreDanuel House 20 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (7/31/2020)
I know this video is all about Danuel House Jr. and his sploits (that’s cool-person talk for “exploits”) from behind the arc, but I just want to point the absurdity of Ben McLemore’s statline this game: 4 of 4 from the field, all threes, 1 of 2 from the line, no other stats besides 6…
Read MoreTrey Burke 31 Points/6 Assists/8 Threes Mavericks Debut Full Highlights (7/31/2020)
You can debate semantics all you want, but here’s the deal: this is the first game for Trey Burke with the Mavericks this season, after spending most of it with the 76ers. Thus, it is his “Mavericks Debut”. I don’t care that he was with Dallas at the end of last season. That fact is…
Read MoreDerrick White 26 Points/5 Assists/5 Charges Taken Full Highlights (7/31/2020)
In the pitch blackness of his hotel room, Derrick White opened his eyes wide. But why? What had so swiftly and decisively roused him from his sleep? He searched his mind for memories of a possible nightmare, but no such recollection could be found. All he knew was that he had just been asleep, but…
Read MoreLonnie Walker 16 Points Full Highlights (7/31/2020)
I gotta say, I commend Lonnie Walker for going out on a limb and telling us the real story of why he had that crazy haircut of his. The one that looked like a clump of tree stumps with one of them falling over. It took real courage to pour out his inner demons for…
Read MoreJa Morant 22 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (7/31/2020)
My video source for this game had a lot of weirdness going on with it, so I am forced to apologize for: -A missing Ja Morant assist -A missing Ja Morant bucket (I got the replays though, so at least you get to see it) -Missing Ja Morant replays after his sick alley-oop dunk (currently…
