In 32 games for the Kings this year, the highest amount of points Trevor Ariza had was 18. In 1 game for the Blazers this year, the highest amount of points Trevor Ariza had was 21. I feel like the same sort of thing happened last year. The Suns signed him to a big deal…

Davis Bertans 17 Points Full Highlights (1/23/2020)
At first I wasn’t going to make this video. I said to myself “Bertans is averaging fifteen PPG per game right now so seventeen isn’t that impressive for him.” But my little kitty Japurri Purrker, who is smart enough to understand human speech, heard me talking to myself and started meowing really angrily at me….
Read MoreLarry Nance Jr. Career High 22 Points Full Highlights (1/23/2020)
Again I am going to register my surprise that Larry Nance Jr.’s career high is only 22 points. It doesn’t even seem possible that Nance, who is not even close to being the most hopeless scorer in the NBA, and is currently in his fifth season, would have a career high that was so low….
Read MoreDamyean Dotson 17 Points Full Highlights (1/22/2020)
With the Knicks being so bad and all (yeah I know they’ve been a bit better recently that doesn’t mean they’re not still bad), you would think that Damyean Dotson would be getting a bit more run. In case the Knicks coaching staff can’t figure it out for themselves, which wouldn’t surprise me at all,…
Read MoreMichael Carter-Williams 15 Points Full Highlights (1/22/2020)
Everyone’s loving the currently-happening career resurgence of Markelle Fultz in Orlando. And I agree: it’s very fun. But you know what would be even more fun? A career resurgence of Michael Carter-Williams in Orlando. The similarities to their respective situations are there. The only difference is that MCW started off “good” (notice the quotation marks…
Read MoreDomantas Sabonis 24 Points Full Highlights (1/22/2020)
Domantas Sabonis has to be an All-Star this year, right. RIGHT? I keep looking at all the bigs in the East and from my point of view, there’s NO WAY that he can be left off the team. But that’s me thinking that. I’m biased. If it were up to me Devonte’ Graham would be…
Read MoreEric Gordon 25 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (1/22/2020)
The ideal Rockets offense, the one that optimizes everything, is for James Harden to dribble in place somewhere around the top of the arc for however long he wants (as long as it’s within the 24 seconds allotted by the NBA) before shooting a stepback three. Clearly, Eric Gordon doesn’t fit in this type of…
Read MoreLuke Kornet 15 Points Full Highlights (1/22/2020)
In the three-point era, there are just fourteen seven-footers who have shot below 40% for their careers while playing a minimum of fifty games. Luke “The Korn Dog” Kornet is one of the players found in that list of dubious distinction. The Korn Dog gets a pass because he’s a three-point specialist, but it’s only…
Read MoreP.J. Dozier 15 Points Full Highlights (1/22/2020)
P.J. “The Bulldozier” Dozier is quickly establishing himself as a rotation player for the Nuggles. After playing two games for the Thunder (two years ago) and six games for the Celtics (last year), I considered his chances at being a long-term fixture in the NBA as being extremely remote. And that’s not a dig at…
Read MoreFred VanVleet 22 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (1/22/2020)
It was refreshing to hear Doris Burke mention at the end of this broadcast that Fred VanVleet is playing exactly how you’d expect a guy seeking out his next NBA contract to play. VanVleet has a legit chance to be 100% completely financially set for life if he just plays really good for this one…
