Everybody loves a good redemption arc. Whether it’s in a TV show, a movie series, in real life, or in sports (which are realer than real life), it’s hard for the common man not to root for the guy (or girl) who fell from grace and then clawed their way back up to prominence. The…

Terrence Ross 35 Points/0 Rebounds/0 Assists/0 Steals/0 Blocks Full Highlights (3/4/2020)
Terrence Ross was just three points away from setting the NBA record for most points scored without recording a rebound, assist, steal, or block. That record is held by Allan Houston, who dropped 37 in that fashion back in 2000. That record is basically the holy grail for scoring-only players in the mold of Ross,…
Read MoreDuncan Robinson 27 Points/9 Threes Full Highlights (3/4/2020)
I keep hearing murmurings about how Duncan Robinson needs to become a better defender before he can take the “next step” as a player, before the Heat can take the next step as a team. And those are the murmurings I want to address right here, right now: Shut up about defense. Nobody cares about…
Read MoreCaleb Martin 12 Points Full Highlights (3/3/2020)
What would really be funny is if I took the description for the Cody Martin vid from this game that I just uploaded and used it here for Caleb Martin. It would really lighten my workload, just do a quick find-and-replace to change all instances of “Cody” to “Caleb” and vice-versa. Problem is, I was…
Read MoreCody Martin 13 Points Full Highlights (3/3/2020)
It’s early in his career, and it’s hard to tell definitely due to the messed-up nature of the Hornets right now, but I’m getting the feeling that Cody Martin is well on his way to becoming an impact player in this league. Not a very big impact, mind you, but any positive impact at all…
Read MoreMason Plumlee 16 Points Full Highlights (3/3/2020)
Mason Plumlee is the last Plumlee remaining in the NBA. That makes sense because he was always the superior Plumlee out of all the Plumlee brothers. His ability to be both a constant lob threat combined with his Jokic-esque-but-not-really-but-kinda-definitely-Jokic-esque passing ability combined with his goofy one-handed free throws make him a player that should stick…
Read MoreMarquese Chriss 16 Points Full Highlights (3/3/2020)
A few weeks ago, I rechristened Marquese “Mar-Queso” “Sea-Cheese” Chriss with the nickname “Bitch Cheese”. I did this because he was displaying behavioral patterns of being a bitch. The final straw was him getting into a scuffle with NBA golden boy Luka Doncic for no other reason than he was getting frustrated by getting out…
Read MoreDario Saric 16 Points Full Highlights (3/3/2020)
“Dear Diary, I wish Dario Saric had stayed injured forever. Every time my hand is forced and I have to give minutes to that loser, I get a splitting migraine. His mere existence fills me with pure, seething hatred. Why can’t Frank Kaminsky be the healthy one instead of Dario? Luckily, I still have enough…
Read MoreJordan Poole 15 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (3/3/2020)
Jordan “Poole Party” Poole has been racking up highlight videos like crazy since the beginning of February. If you had told me after Poole’s unfathomably inefficient month of December (11% from the field) that he was going to be making regular appearances on my channel, I would have told you that Warriors homers are not…
Read MoreEric Paschall 22 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (3/3/2020)
The Warriors were without a point guard for this game, and they were also without the point-guard-esque skills of Draymond Green, so the Warriors had to switch to a “point guard by committee” model. I have to say, the results were impressive: a solid win over the pseudo-contender Denver Nuggles. Eric Paschall contributed his part…
