The mood in the locker room was subdued after the loss. Even though his teammates had been telling him that he had played a good game, Luka Doncic wasn’t convinced that the loss wasn’t somehow his fault. Trying to think of something that would lift his spirits, Luka’s mind landed on his trip to Taco…
Read MoreDavis Bertans 21 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2019)
Rejoice, fans of Davis Bertans, for the tyrannical regime of Gregg Popovich is almost at an end. He has hinted strongly at retiring at the end of the season, and with his retirement would come a new era of Spurs basketball where Bertans isn’t held down because of backwards-minded coaching. Popovich is loved for what…
Read MoreMaurice Harkless 16 Points Full Highlights (1/26/2019)
Maurice Harkless: most irrelevant starter in the league? His per-game statline of 6-4-1-1-1 doesn’t exactly excite, unless you’re a big fan of players who, if given way more minutes (like two full games worth), might be a threat to get a 5×5 (Harkless: ask Jusuf Nurkic for some tips!). I guess he’s a decent enough…
Read MoreJohn Collins 21 Points Full Highlights (1/26/2019)
It feels weird, but 21 points isn’t even that many points for John Collins these days. Only slightly above his average of 19. Still a highlight-worthy performance, but for how much longer? In only a few games, he’ll probably be above 20 ppg on the season, and then what? Do I just remove him from…
Read MoreJaren Jackson 20 Points Full Highlights (1/26/2019)
The Grizzlies are collapsing (ignore this win), but they’re still playing rotations like a playoff team. Give it a rest, Bickerstaff. No one wants to see Shelvin Mack anymore. Same as last year, it took them a while to realize that what they really should be doing is tanking. And see what that got them!…
Read MoreShake Milton 11 Points Full Highlights (1/26/2019)
If this were the 76ers of a few years ago, you just know that Shake Milton would be averaging 17 points per game while getting to chuck any shot he wanted. Maybe he’d even be in the convo for ROY. But this is not the 76ers of a few years ago. This is the 76ers…
Read MoreTorrey Craig 15 Points Full Highlights (1/26/2019)
After careful consideration, I have decided that Torrey “Torrey Time” Craig is the second coming of Alonzo Gee for the Nuggets. To reinforce the biblical theme, you could even call him the second coming of Alonzo Geesus, but that’s not necessary in my view. Alonzo Gee was a small forward who couldn’t really shoot jumpshots…
Read MoreTrae Young 30 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (1/26/2019)
In the past few videos I have made for Trae Young, he has been reliant on his floater to score points. My opinion on floaters is well-known and shouldn’t need to be restated, but I will restate it anyway for the benefit of newcomers: floaters are a shot that is only taken when all your…
Read MoreSeth Curry 22 Points Full Highlights (1/26/2019)
Just call me Nostrabuckus. Two days ago, I penned the following words on a different Seth Curry highlight video: “Is it too late to get people into the three-point contest? […] If there is still a chance to do so, I humbly submit Seth Curry for consideration. […] I don’t know if Steph is going…
Read MoreCorey Brewer 20 Points/1 Kick Full Highlights (1/26/2019)
When Corey Brewer started this season not on anybody’s roster, I was a little bit surprised. But only a little bit. We’re talking a miniscule amount of surprise, so small that it barely even registered on my emotional seismograph. In reality, he has never been a good player. He has been an okay player for…
