https://youtu.be/ALrsaMJpS7g It’s rare that a player accumulates enough steals in a game to meet DTB’S OFFICIAL STEALS THRESHOLD. The threshold is a moving target that changes based on the player and my mood that day, and when a player meets it, it ensures that their steals are shown in the highlight video alongside their buckets….

Reggie Bullock 21 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (2/7/2021)
https://youtu.be/KmMFQm01tIQ When I saw that Reggie Bullock attempted fourteen three-pointers in this game, my initial reaction was one of primal revulsion. Intuitively, Bullock does not seem like the guy who should be hoisting up that many threes. He’s an alright three-point shooter, but he hasn’t been a “good” one since his Pistons days, at leat…
Read MoreMike Muscala 22 Points/1 Half Full Highlights (2/6/2021)
https://youtu.be/b7CFhHVdDls Mike “The Musky Minnesotan” Muscala made mince meat out of the Timberpuppies in the first half of this contest, dropping in 22 points on a combination of outside splashmastery and tough inside bucketage. Muscala probably grew up as a fan of the Timberpoops, being from the twin cities suburb of Roseville, so there was…

https://youtu.be/TbCUgH5lnRk You know, I’m just not sure about the pink sneakers that Tyrese Haliburton wore during this game. I’m admittedly the least-qualified person in the universe when it comes to discussing footwear, and I’m sure that the shoes themselves are perfectly comfortable and suited for basketball, but I can’t keep my feelings on this bottled…
Read MoreNaz Reid Career High 29 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2021)
https://youtu.be/eWZGSGE2opY If Naz Reid had hit that game-tying shot, man, that would’ve been the gnarliest thing ever. Leading his team back from a huge deficit, hitting the game-tier, who knows what he would’ve done in overtime, and best of all, he would’ve qualified to enter the Hall Of The Thirty Point Scorers, where he could…
Read MoreChris Boucher 29 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2021)
https://youtu.be/JsYhZxz-r1c I don’t blame the Raptors for maybe not being as good as maybe some people (not me) maybe thought they should be. Maybe. Having to play all your “home” games in Tampa, and not being able to actually live in your actual residence in Toronto, that’s gotta be tough. Living out of a hotel…
Read MoreLandry Shamet 22 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2021)
https://youtu.be/gNTXgkXn5qg Out of all the dudes playing for the Brooklyn Nets, Landry Shamet stood to lose the most in a potential James Harden acquisition that abruptly went from “potential” to “confirmed”. Shamet was already struggling as the backup shooting guard to Joe Harris. Then Harden came along and the struggling Shamet had a few games…
Read MoreAlex Len 18 Points/5 Blocks Full Highlights (2/5/2021)
https://youtu.be/KjEX7KLPr7c The Raptors made a bold move this off-season by lowballing Serge Ibaka and letting Marc Gasol two-step right out the door, then replacing those guys with…Aron Baynes and Alex Len. Marc Gasol is bootytrash right now so that aspect of it isn’t so bad, but there’s no way that Baynes and Len even come…
Read MorePatrick Williams 20 Points Full Highlights (2/5/2021)
https://youtu.be/q4YzSi9V9cQ Even though the league is still chucking threes at an unprecedented rate (it seems like every night there’s a team setting a franchise high in made threes), I feel like the midrange is making a bit of a comeback. But this is just my gut feeling. It’s very possible that if I were to…
Read MoreLaMelo Ball Career High 34 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (2/5/2021)
https://youtu.be/6GHDX8p4jh4 LaMelo Ball awoke from his slumber only to come to the immediate conclusion that he had seamlessly transitioned from one dream into another. The place he was in was like no place he had been on Earth. A brightly shining sun, whose light was dampened by silver cloud cover, lent an otherworldly glow to…
