Cross another one off the list. I can rest easy knowing that if I died tomorrow, the DTB Highlights Archivium would contain within its storied walls a VHS tape showing Fred VanVleet scoring points in an NBA game. In case you’re wondering, yes, VHS is the preferred storage format of The Archivium. It was either…

Brook Lopez 28 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2017)
If there is such a thing as “vintage” Brook Lopez, this video represents it. But even if it does exist, there is unlikely to be a market for such things. Bropez is still definitely in the league and in his prime; there is no overwhelming nostalgia to see how he used to play the game….
Read MoreRobin Lopez 21 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2017)
Robin Lopez hasn’t gotten enough credit for solidly solid he has been the last couple years. He got some recognition in Portland for his solidity, but it was only a minor amount in comparison to how important he was for those playoff teams, and he definitely had serious solidness going on before then. Solidness is…
Read MoreRicky Rubio 21 Points/14 Assists Full Highlights (1/17/2017)
This vid has way too many free throws. That’s all there is to it. Just setting expectations here: Ricky Rubio’s 21 points were less about him and more about how Tony Parker couldn’t stop slapping his arms. He hit some regular in-game jumpers, but those are outnumbered greatly by standstill flat-footed jumpers from the free-throw…
Read MoreSeth Curry 18 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2017)
I don’t feel like Seth Curry is catching as much flak as he should be for the ridiculous width of his headband. Remember when LeBron tried to cover up his receding hairline with a gigantic headband? He got so much crap for it that he had to stop and own up to his inferior genetics….
Read MoreCory Joseph Career High 33 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2017)
I don’t know whether to be impressed or appalled by this performance by Cory Joseph. His 33 points, which totally demolished whatever meager career-high he had set previously, are certainly very impressive. Especially when you consider that they basically all came as a result of his own shot-creating ability; only two of these baskets were…
Read MoreKelly Oubre 18 Points Full Highlights (1/16/2017)
Kelly Oubre is being brought along slowly in the NBA. That’s probably a good thing, given how often we see rookies/young players crash and burn when given too much responsibility too early. He’s the backup small forward by default in Washington despite looking a little skinny for the position, probably because the Wizards have about…
Read MoreMarvin Williams 21 Points Full Highlights (1/16/2017)
I didn’t watch this game live, so when I saw Marvin Williams take a hard fall after a dunk attempt on which he got fouled (shades of Bogut vs. Stoudemire), I knew he was going to get up and score ten more points. I knew that, no matter how bad that fall looked (it looked…
Read MoreMarreese Speights 23 Points Full Highlights (1/16/2017)
This is a great game from Marreese “Speighetti” Speights. Perhaps his best game of the season. This highlight video should be great, right? It’s got a big guy shooting threes, it’s got the same big guy doing a weird dribble move, it’s got a cyst, it’s got everything you want and more. There’s just one…
Read MoreBismack Biyombo 15 Points Full Highlights (1/16/2017)
You can tell by the Nuggets’ bench reaction that Bismack Biyombo’s hard tumble in the fourth quarter of this game looked gnarly as heck. Double gnarly. You don’t even need to see the fall itself. I didn’t show any replays, because when it happened live, the first thing I thought was “Kevin Ware 2.0”, and…
