Marcus Morris 27 Points Full Highlights (6/30/2021)

https://youtu.be/Ft6wiDhyqbo Nighty-night, Clippers. After a blowout game six victory, the Suns proceed to the Finals while their vanquished foes proceed to do whatever it is that teams do after they get eliminated from the playoffs. Do they have a tearful hug session in the locker room and then immediately book separate flights to their preferred…

Marcus Morris 22 Points Full Highlights (6/28/2021)

https://youtu.be/aHWeQDDLkrA It’s easy to buy into the “Marcus Morris is like Kawhi Leonard 0.5 and is single-handedly dragging the Clippers to victories” narrative if you’re not avidly checking the box-scores for the games and committing all the statlines to your internal long-term storage (i.e. your brain). Morris has had a handful of impressive scoring performances…

Cameron Payne Career High 29 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (6/22/2021)

https://youtu.be/cTmUMokCt9w I’m sure a lot of people (myself included) were doubtful that the Suns sans Chris Paul would be able to take any games off the Clippers. Their best bet was to try to hold on and keep everybody healthy while waiting for Paul to emerge unscathed from the “health and safety protocols” which currently…

Kevin Huerter 27 Points Full Highlights (6/20/2021)

https://youtu.be/K012BPoub5w This game seven between the Hawks and the Sixers will probably be most remembered for the chokejob of one Mr. Ben Simmons, henceforth known as Bum Scrubbins. That is, if historians remember this game at all. However, the real hero of this game is and always will be Kevin “Butthuert” Huerter. It’s fun to…

Royce O’Neale Career High 21 Points Full Highlights (6/18/2021)

https://youtu.be/5qbT1f24cAQ Royce O’Neale is just finishing up his fourth season with the Jazz, and the Jazz have been a good-to-great team for the entirety of his tenure there. For most of that time, the general consensus around the league is that O’Neale is a valuable 3&D role-player whose presence makes the team better. While not…

Reggie Jackson 27 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (6/18/2021)

https://youtu.be/74vjToYY_6A We are currently inhabiting a reality where Reggie Jackson is the second-best player on a team that is in the Western Conference Finals. Other fun attributes of this reality: -Tacos -Burritos -Unclothed females available for free viewing on the internet -Gravity -Matter -Consciousness But all those things are lame compared to the idea that…

Terance Mann Career High 39 Points Full Highlights (6/18/2021)

https://youtu.be/6Ms3KUedlgE I don’t know if there’s a worse way for a team to lose a series. Just a total collapse by what was supposedly the best team in the league, starting earlier in the series and culminating in a blown 25-point lead. If I’m a Jazz fan right now, I’m going into hiding. No internet,…

Marcus Morris 25 Points Full Highlights (6/16/2021)

https://youtu.be/BJ3SANdmEvo Kawhi Leonard is out for at least the rest of this series with a sprained ACL. As we speak, teams of the most skilled and respected load managers are descending on Los Angeles in order to help manage Kawhi’s load. But, until Kawhi’s load has been managed by these load management experts, somebody else…

Seth Curry 36 Points Full Highlights (6/16/2021)

https://youtu.be/-CoXLmOYnAk Before I get into the meat of this description, I just want to say thank you to the Sixers for choking so badly against the Hawks that the Bucks’ embarrassing chokejob from the previous night is washed from the collective memory of NBA fans worldwide. Losing a 17-point third-quarter lead while Kevin Durant has…

Jeff Green 27 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (6/15/2021)

https://youtu.be/OpI4-CbjP6c We all know that the universe possesses a low-level sentience that is capable of malevolence. This grand consciousness has no personality and no rationality, but it does have hate. And, going into this game, it really seemed like the universe was directing its uncontrolled and overwhelming malevolence at the Brooklyn Nets: -Kyrie Irving was…
