Don’t be fooled by the “2 Dunks” part of the video title. Those dunks, just like every non-dunk-contest dunk he has ever dunked in his NBA career, are merely moderately entertaining at absolute best. I had my reasons for putting that bit in the title that may be too advanced for you simpletons to understand….

Nassir Little 12 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2019)
The biggest story of this game was the triumphant (at least, triumphant until the game actually started) return of Carmelo Anthony to the NBA. If he had scored just a few more points, I’d be making the most pathetic highlight video of all time for him. It would be so sad. But the biggest story…
Read MoreCameron Johnson 18 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2019)
Once again, I have been misled as to the age (and thus, the quality) of an NBA prospect. I don’t know who it is doing the misleading, but it has to be someone, because I wouldn’t be so consistently wrong on these things. I was under the impression that Cameron “Tall Booker” Johnson was, like,…
Read MoreRichaun Holmes 20 Points Full Highlights (11/20/2019)
Other players for the Kings are stepping up now, such that Richaun Holmes is no longer the clear-cut best player on the team. Oh well. It was fun while it lasted, the “Tear it down and build around Rich Holmie Chaun” era of Kings basketball. Or, if you don’t like that title for the era,…
Read MoreNemanja Bjelica 17 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2019)
I enjoyed the conviction with which Kings commentator Grant Napear said “Ball game!” following Nemanja Bjelica’s three-pointer with around 2 minutes left to put the Kings up 12. I also enjoyed the slightly more subdued “Woo!” from Doug Christie. The conviction was misplaced, however, as there ended up being a lot more basketball played. The…
Read MoreBogdan Bogdanovic Career High 31 Points/7 Assists/7 Threes Full Highlights (11/19/2019)
Though the game had just finished, the halls Bogdan Bogdanovic ran through were empty. He knew there would be well-wishers and admirers in all the well-trodden paths of the Golden One Center. He had been delayed too often before, and now was no time for delays, well-wishing or not. As much as he desired otherwise,…
Read MoreAlec Burks 29 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2019)
Alec Burks represents a rarity on the Warriors’ roster: a veteran who can score. It’s actually a double rarity: both in the “veteran” department and the “can score” department. The only people with as much or more NBA experience than Burks are Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. Normally teams have at least one super old…
Read MoreJa Morant 20 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (11/19/2019)
Ja Morant didn’t play particularly well this game. That’s fine; rookies have bad games pretty much all the time. If anything, we should be encouraged by this performance, because he did something that many players never figure out how to do. Which is: put up a good statline while sucking. Most players, when they suck,…
Read MoreBrook Lopez 19 Points/5 Blocks Full Highlights (11/18/2019)
It’s no secret that Brook Lopez has regressed to start the new 2019-20 NBA season which isn’t even that new anymore (we’re like 1/6th of the way done already, damn). After shooting 36% on three-pointers last season, he’s shooting a cool 28% on them this season. Bucks fans can take solace in the fact that,…
Read MoreGeorge Hill 18 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2019)
The life of a highlight maker is fraught with difficulty. Tough decisions await you at every turn. The latest tough decision I faced: should I make a George Hill video, a Brook Lopez video, both, or neither? For reference, here are their statlines (irrelevant statistical categories excluded): George Hill: 18 points, 5-of-9 shooting, 4-of-4 shooting…
