Donovan Mitchell sure has a lot of confidence. Most rookies outside the top five don’t come in and immediately start chucking the basketball at the rim with no remorse. They feel things out for a bit first. Learn the pecking order and their place in it, and as they get better and more confident, add…

Ben Simmons Triple Double 14 Pts/11 Rebs/11 Asts Full Highlights (11/3/2017)
Ben Simmons is already exceeding expectations in a 76ers uniform. Watch him play is a joy, a delight, a treat, a privilege (check it), it’s hard to be critical of anything he is doing. Only the curmudgeonliest and most cantankerous haters could have anything negative to say about him at this point. With that said……
Read MoreJeremy Lamb Career High 27 Points Full Highlights (11/3/2017)
“Yo, man, didn’t you try this last year? You know no one wants to be in that crappy band of yours.” Kemba Walker said incredulously. “That’s not what your mom said last night.” Jeremy Lamb responded absentmindedly, not turning from his current task, which was affixing fluorescent pink printouts on the Hornets’ team bulletin board….
Read MoreDwayne Bacon 18 Points Full Highlights (11/3/2017)
In the interest of bringing only the original-est, most entertaining content to my video descriptions, I promise not to ever use the adjective “sizzling” when referring to Dwayne (finally someone who spelled it correctly) Bacon. Not once, over the whole year. It would be so easy, just incredibly easy, to say it when he has…
Read MoreBryn Forbes 22 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (11/3/2017)
I can’t remember right now off the top of my head, but Bryn Forbes either had a really sick Summer League or a really sick preseason. Or both. Could be both. In any case, he showed that he can score the rock in a professional setting. He can shoot jimbos, but he can also take…
Read MoreBojan Bogdanovic 21 Points Full Highlights (11/3/2017)
Tonight was a hotly-anticipated matchup between Bojan Bogdanovic and Dario Saric. While they were overshadowed by “better” players on their respective teams, they both made an impact. But who came out on top? Let’s take a look at the facts, and with the facts come to a truthful and correct conclusion. NATIONALITY: Both dudes are…
Read MoreJ.J. Redick 31 Points/8 Threes Full Highlights (11/3/2017)
Last time J.J. Redick was a third banana in the Eastern Conference, he was playing behind Monta Ellis and Brandon Jennings on a team with no excitement and no prospects. Now, maybe it’s debatable that he’s even the third option right now, but I say he is, and things are looking a lot better this…
Read MoreKyle Anderson 16 Points Full Highlights (11/2/2017)
There’s always a subset of viewers clamoring for more of the “miscellaneous” stats that players accrue, such as assists, blocks, and steals. Since Kyle Anderson is somewhat of an all-around player who will collect small amounts of those stats, I decided to throw my viewership a bone by showing his two blocks and four assists…
Read MoreBrook Lopez 27 Points Full Highlights (11/2/2017)
The stats tell us that Brook Lopez has had trouble adjusting to a different role in Los Angeles. Even after this vintage Blopez performance, he is only averaging 13 PPG on 42% shooting. This is after years and years in Brooklyn (a borough that is actually named after him) where he could be counted on…
Read MoreKyle Kuzma 22 Points Full Highlights (11/2/2017)
Another game, another instance of Kyle Kuzma thoroughly outplaying alleged Lakers’ savior Lonzo Ball. I’m fully aware that when Lonzo breaks out and starts taking over the league, all my video descriptions belittling him are going to look really dumb, but I don’t especially care right at this moment. In the here and now all…
