Theo Pinson 12 Points Full Highlights (12/11/2019)

Theo Pinson went from collecting butt splinters and notching DNPs to playing legit backup PG minutes the second Kyrie Irving got hurt. Injuries suck, but when they happen to stars, it creates chances for little-utilized players to come in and show their stuff, which is always good in my book. Pinson, though, doesn’t seem to…

Spencer Dinwiddie 24 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (12/11/2019)

Since Kyrie Irving went incognito with a shoulder injury about a month ago, Spencer Dinwiddie has scored under 20 points only 2 times. So if you’ve been wondering why I’ve been spamming your subscription box with endless vids depicting this dude, that’s why. I haven’t had a choice in the matter; Dinwiddie is simply dominating…

Norman Powell 22 Points Full Highlights (12/11/2019)

The outcome of this game (a lopsided win for the Clippers) certainly wasn’t what Raptors fans were hoping for. Facing off against the guy that won them a ring and then bolted for a place that was both more warm and more American, the Raptors definitely wanted to come out and show the world that…

Jaren Jackson 24 Points Full Highlights (12/11/2019)

Jaren Jackson Jr.’s much-publicized fouling woes were a prominent issue of his during his rookie campaign. Actually, “much-publicized” is overstating it by quite a bit, but his fouling woes were at least “medium-publicized”, including by me. That season, Jackson Jr. averaged 5.2 fouls per 36 minutes. It hasn’t gotten better for JJJ in his second…

R.J. Barrett 22 Points Full Highlights (12/11/2019)

The five games before this one were not pretty for R.J. Barrett: 16 points, 4-of-13 shooting 2 points, 0-of-9 shooting 9 points, 4-of-10 shooting 12 points, 4-of-11 shooting 5 points, 1-of-9 shooting Okay, so some of those aren’t so bad (taking 13 shots to score 16 points and drawing hella fouls Harden-style is a good…

Frank Kaminsky 24 Points Full Highlights (12/11/2019)

Frank Kaminsky truly lived up to his nickname of “Frank the Bank” by being totally money in this game, going 9-of-12 from the field for 24 points, three off his career high of 27. I’m not sure if people are actually using this nickname or of I’m the only one, but its usage will certainly…

Ersan Ilyasova 18 Points Full Highlights (12/11/2019)

Against certain teams, replacing Giannis Antetokounmpo with Ersan Ilyasova in the lineup would have disastrous effects. The Pelicans are not one of those teams. With the MVP favorite sitting on the bench in a snazzy suit (probably taking selfies and making corny jokes too), the Bucks had no problem dispatching the Pelicans, who seemed to…

Dillon Brooks 27 Points Full Highlights (12/11/2019)

Man, Dillon Brooks just loves taking shots he has no business taking. He must have learned some lessons from the other Brooks (the MarShon kind) while they were teammates, because he is just chucking up some seriously iffy stuff and a surprising amount of it goes in. Watch this video. How many of these shots…

Jeff Teague 32 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (12/11/2019)

The universe itself is mocking me. I can hear its shrill laughter echoing in the cold gulfs between the stars. Between laughs, it is saying “Jeff Teague had another good game, DownToBuck, and you have to make a highlight video for it even though no conscious being in the entire vastity of my existence wants…

Marcus Morris 36 Points Full Highlights (12/11/2019)

All it took for the Knicks to actually win a game for once was to get a 20-point lead, squander it, and squeeze out the win in overtime. I want to make a joke about tanking here, and how they revved up their tank way too late to get a loss, but even horrible teams…
