Ja Morant 25 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (8/2/2020)

Fourth quarter Ja Morant does it again. At this point, I’m not even sure that he’s aware of the existence of the other three quarters. He must think those are all just warmups/shootarounds for the twelve minutes of “real game” that happen during the fourth quarter. With eleven points in the fourth quarter, after scoring…

Dejounte Murray 21 Points Full Highlights (8/2/2020)

With Dejounte Murray cutting his hair (among other Spurs players), and the general lack of names on jerseys, and my inability care about player’s jersey numbers, it’s very difficult to figure out who’s who on the court for the Spurs these days. Watching from a distance, Dejounte’ Murray could be DeMar DeRozan. He could also…

Troy Brown Jr. 22 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (8/2/2020)

Troy Brown Jr., otherwise known as TBJ, emerged as a somewhat legitimate scoring threat for the ‘Zards this season. Part of his success probably had to do with the kind of offense the ‘Zards were running (the kind of offense where you always have energy because nobody ever made you play defense) but it also…

Jarrett Allen 22 Points Full Highlights (8/2/2020)

So Jarrett Allen went 10-of-10 from the free throw line in this game. That’s notable because he’s only a 62% free throw shooter this season. My math skills have deteriorated to the point where I have no idea how to even begin figuring out what the chances are of Allen going 10-of-10 from the line….

Chris Chiozza 14 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (8/2/2020)

COVID-19 can kill a lot of things. It can kill economies. It can kill people. It can kill normal human society. But the one thing it cannot kill is CHIOZZANITY. (In case you forgot, Chiozzanity is defined as extreme ardor for, bordering on obsession with, Brooklyn Nets point guard Chris Chiozza and his exploits on…

Joe Harris 27 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (8/2/2020)

It’s unfortunate that Joe Harris is in a contract year but didn’t even get to play with Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant as part of a championship contender. And I’m not joking around when I say that healthy Kyrie + healthy Durant + healthy LeVert + healthy Harris (he’s always healthy bee tee double yew)…

Thomas Bryant 30 Points Full Highlights (8/2/2020)

Boom. Boom. BOOM. BOOM BOOM BOOM!!! You hear all those booms? That’s the sound of Lakers fans taking body blows from every possible angle right now. Not only did the Lakers just lose to the Raptors last night, but now, the young stud bigman that they gave up on after his rookie season just dropped…

Brook Lopez 23 Points Full Highlights (8/2/2020)

12 rebounds is really a lot for Brook Lopez, tying a season-high, in fact. But before you get all excited about how maybe he isn’t one of the “worst” rebounding centers in the league, remember that he basically had no choice but to grab the rebounds that he did. The Rockets didn’t play anyone this…

Terrence Ross 25 Points Full Highlights (8/2/2020)

In my giddiness over the fact that the NBA season actually resumed successfully, despite the utter lack of normalcy outside of the bubble, I forgot about one thing: My absolute burning hatred for free throws. You’d think that, in four months where the only administrative tasks set before the NBA were which teams get to…

DaQuan Jeffries 12 Points Full Highlights (8/2/2020)

I always get hyped when a new scrub gets to appear on my channel, and this instance is no exception. I love it when ultra-super-duper-mega-scrubs have the stars align for them and put together a scoring performance worthy of a DTB highlight video. It’s what I live for, basically. So DaQuan Jeffries, a guy who…
