Ersan Ilyasova is back on the Bucks! The initial excitement has worn off for me a little bit, but it’s still great to see him back where he belongs. You may notice the “vintage” thumbnail image, evocative of the ones I was using around 2015. True DTB historians will remember that the image of Ilyasova…

Pascal Siakam Career High 22 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2018)
Pascal “SICKam” Siakam was MAD at Ersan Ilyasova early in this one. Taking it right at him multiple teams with success. Ilyasova can only play defense if he’s taking charges; if he’s not doing that, he’ll get toasted by anyone with speed or strength. Siakam has the speed for sure. Strength, yeah, why not. Unlike…
Read MoreSerge Ibaka 30 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2018)
No Kawhi? No problem! All you need is the devastating Afri-duo of Serge Ibaka (seen here) and Pascal Siakam (coming soon). They combined for 52 points on 22 of 37 shooting, torching all the bigs that the Bucks had to throw at them. To be fair, and fairness is what I’m all about when it…
Read MoreZach Collins 17 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2018)
While compiling this highlights package, I noticed some serious budding chemistry between Nik Stauskas (giving) and Zach Collins (receiving). Blazers fans would probably want chemistry between more important players, like more McCollum/Lillard chemistry or Evan Turner chemistry with something other than bricks. But this is still good. Stauskas gets to continue building a reputation as…
Read MoreWendell Carter 18 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2018)
The downside of Klay Thompson going nuclear on the Bulls is that the Bulls commentators had no words to spare for their rookie, Wendell Carter, who was having a career night. He absolutely postered a dude, the dude’s arms were all up in there but Carter was still dunking, and they didn’t even talk about…
Read MoreLuka Doncic 31 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2018)
Luke Doncic looking fresh! His previous unshaven and disheveled appearance combined with his ever-so-slight tubbiness had him looking more like a basement-dwelling NBA-YouTube-commenting loser than an actual NBA player. Is “fresh” even still a term people use anymore? If not, I apologize for not knowing the latest lingo. At least be glad that I didn’t…
Read MoreAlfonzo McKinnie Career High 19 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2018)
Uh oh, Toronto, looks like this is the one you let slip away. Alfonzo McKinnie was ready AND willing to be a Raptor for life, and you waived him. Straight up cold-hearted waivement was what you perpetrated on him. And I’m looking at your current game right now, and it looks like you’re getting your…
Read MorePatrick Patterson 17 Points Full Highlights (10/28/2018)
Welcome back Patrick “Tupat” Patterson! Last time I made a vid for him was during the 2015(!) playoffs, where he scored 15. For regular-season Tupat action you have to go back to frickin’ 2014. Those dates give you an idea of how long he’s been a poor offensive player. He was good, or at least…
Read MoreGeorges Niang 13 Points Full Highlights (10/28/2018)
I’m very impressed with Georges Niang’s ability to stay in the league. Normally dudes who barely play in their first year don’t get to come back. And normally dudes who barely played in their first year but then somehow came back only to barely play in their second year REALLY don’t get to come back….
Read MoreNerlens Noel 20 Points/6 Dunks Full Highlights (10/28/2018)
It’s been so long since I’ve been able to make a highlight video of Nerlens Noel that I don’t think I’ve even gotten the chance to talk about his decision to bet on himself and pass up a huge contract in hopes of getting an even huger one after a successful season. Spoiler alert: his…
