This is pretty much the perfect highlight vid. People in generations to come are going to be watching this one when they want to know what basketball was like in 2017 before the advent of anti-gravity shoes, 13-foot tall genetically-engineered players, and robotic referees with guns built into their arms. The subject, Wayne “Beef W”…

T.J. Warren 27 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2017)
I love T.J. “Warren Peace” Warren, I think he has one of the sweetest, smoothest games in the league, he’s really great, but man he makes a lot of layups. The overabundance of layups in his highlight vids makes up for the underabundance of free throws, so it evens out, but still. We know he…
Read MoreLonzo Ball Triple Double 11 Pts/11 Asts/16 Rebs Full Highlights (11/19/2017)
Lonzo Ball looks even more like a pizza now that he’s cut his hair. His head lost some of the triangular shape that his hair-poof provided, but now it looks more like a crust then ever. And you’ve still got the cheese (his skin), the tomato sauce (the pinkness that develops when he exerts himself),…
Read MoreAllen Crabbe 25 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2017)
The Nets only needed about three or four more late triples from Allen Crabbe to beat the Warriors tonight. In the last minute. That’s enough time, I think. But the possession after Crabbe made his final three, he didn’t even get to shoot it. Spencer Dinwiddie (whose good three-point percentage this season is surely nothing…
Read MoreLauri Markkanen 26 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2017)
Lauri “Pyhä Paska” Markkanen just composed his magnum opus, a stirring symphony of post-up fadeaways, three-pointers and layups. To this point, it is his finest work, but I would be not surprised at all, in fact I am expecting, that he surpass it at some point this season. The instrumentation and melodic lines fall a…
Read MoreBojan Bogdanovic 26 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2017)
“Dear Father, How is life in the homeland? Good I hope. Tell Nana that I miss her greatly and will endeavor to visit her as soon as possible. It may be not be for a while, however; the NBA season is long, but with hardly a break. My responsibility to score the ball is greater…
Read MoreDennis Schröder 23 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (11/18/2017)
I have come to the regrettable determination that Dënniß ßchrööder no longer has any fans. In his fifth year in the league he’s pretty well established himself as a fringe All-Star who can average something close to 20/7, but there doesn’t seem to be a contingent of people who are rallying behind him as the…
Read MoreWillie Cauley-Stein 18 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2017)
If you watched this video with no idea who Willie Cauley-Stein was or what his reputation coming out of college was, you would think that this guy is on par with a Porzingis or Davis in terms of offensive skillset. Cauley-Stein was painted as strictly a defensive specialist, but the talent vacuum in Sacramento has…
Read MoreJ.J. Barea 20 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (11/18/2017)
One of the nicer stories of the off-season was Mark Cuban loaning his private jet to J.J. Barea so that the latter could fly in supplies to hurricane-ravaged Puerto Rico. That’s something where I can’t even make a snide comment or racially insensitive remark about it. It was just a good thing to do. Puerto…
Read MoreWesley Matthews 22 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (11/18/2017)
I’m looking at Wesley Matthews’ shooting numbers right now and it seems like they’re backwards. He’s shooting over 40% on long balls, but he’s shooting 33% on all two-point attempts. That doesn’t even make sense. Layups are supposed to be easy. Other two-point shots might be more difficult than layups, but they’re not more difficult…
