While Luka Doncic hit the game-winner in this one, and Trey Burke plopped in 25 points to help the Mavericks get the dub, let us not forget the overlooked, but considerable, contributions that Tim Hardaway Jr., uh, contributed in this game: -Giving a rousing pregame speech which used the “F word” over one hundred times…

Trey Burke 25 Points Full Highlights (8/23/2020)
Mavericks fans and 76ers fans are in very different headspaces right now. And the thing that ties them together is Trey Burke. Mavericks fans just watched their team, the major underdog in the series, take a second game off a championship-contending (???) Clippers squad featuring true superstars Kawhi Leonard and Paul George (LOL). Luka Doncic…
Read MoreJeff Green 22 Points Full Highlights (8/22/2020)
Jeff Green: the Rockets’ second-best player in this series? Yeah, he is, and it’s not really close at all. He’s averaging like 20 PPG for the series, on 60% shooting from the field and 50% from three. Meanwhile, the only other guy who has a legit claim to the title, Eric Gordon, just went 8-for-24…
Read MoreTyler Herro 20 Points Full Highlights (8/22/2020)
It has recently come to my attention that Jimmy Butler is an absolutely horrendous jump-shooter this year. Like, one of the very worst, probably THE worst when you’re talking about players who are actually considered “good”. I mean, just by watching Heat games you kind of get the sense that he’s not great at jumpers,…
Read MoreTerrence Ross 20 Points Full Highlights (8/22/2020)
Just for fun, I wanted to see where Terrence Ross’s zero-point, 0-of-10 shooting performance in the Magic’s fifth bubble game ranked in terms of horrible bubble games. It’s gotta be pretty low, right? He shot a bunch of shots and didn’t make any of them. Using basketball-reference’s “Game Score” stat, which is a rough numerical…
Read MoreD.J. Augustin 24 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (8/22/2020)
In case you missed it, D.J. “Founder of Modern Christian Thought” Augustin set a playoff record last game by scoring ten points without making a field goal (this record is only for the three-point era because I want him to have the record and he doesn’t have it if players from the 1950’s qualify). Nobody…
Read MoreLandry Shamet 18 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (8/21/2020)
You could tell this would be a different kind of game than we’re used to from Landry Shamet when, early in the game, he grabbed a rebound, pushed it up the court, and instead of pulling it back out to wait for someone else to take the ball, he drove it straight to the rim….
Read MoreTim Hardaway Jr. 22 Points Full Highlights (8/21/2020)
Luka Doncic left this game in the fourth quarter with an ankle injury. The camera strategically placed in the tunnel to the locker rooms showed him hopping away from the trainers as fast as he could on one leg, which showed his grit and determination, but it also showed that his ankle wasn’t feeling too…
Read MoreSeth Curry 22 Points Full Highlights (8/21/2020)
I have been informed by those knowledgeable about the situation that, even though this is a Seth Curry video and not a Stephen Curry video, there is no reason that I cannot say the phrase “Chef Curry with the pot boy” right now. I am in the clear legally, morally, and ontologically. So that’s what…
Read MoreGeorges Niang 16 Points Full Highlights (8/21/2020)
I have no ability to make you care about Georges Niang, but in my feeble attempt to gain that ability, I present to you this singular fact: Georges Niang has shot 40% from three each of the past two seasons. Do you care yet? No? Well, you’re beyond help. And I’m beyond help too because…
