What was the ratio of Grizzlies fans to Lakers fans at this game? This game IN MEMPHIS. Based on the loudness of the “Kuuuuuuuuz” chants every time Kyle Kuzma did something (I didn’t hear any chants when he was doing nothing, but they could’ve existed), I’d say it was 90/10 in favor of the Lakers….
Read MoreMario Hezonja 14 Points Full Highlights (3/24/2018)
29 other GMs around the league are going to be so impressed by this video. Well, maybe not this video particularly (though I know you’re reading this, Earvin), but the performance that this video showcases. Mario Hezonja only had 14 points, but he accomplished a prestigious feat: the “scrub by five”, where a scrub/role-player gets…
Read MoreAaron Gordon 29 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (3/24/2018)
OFFICIAL DAYS UNTIL NO MORE AARON GORDON ON DTB COUNTDOWN: 19 DAYS It might be even lower than that, if he doesn’t play in the last few Magic games (he almost certainly won’t play in the final one) because that’s just how tanking teams do things. Gordon is one of the first players I’ve really…
Read MoreAnthony Tolliver 25 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (3/24/2018)
Anthony Tolliver is having the best season of his career, and does anyone care? Whenever I ask that question, the answer is uniformly “no”. No one cares. Not even Pistons fans care, because they are beyond caring about anything except Little Caesar’s Pizza at this point. I care, but I don’t count. I’ve always like…
Read MoreTony Snell 18 Points/0 Rebounds/0 Assists/0 Steals/0 Blocks Full Highlights (3/23/2018)
The only contribution that Tony Snell made to the box-score last night, other than his scoring, was one personal foul. That’s it. He didn’t do anything else. In that sense, this video is about as close to “full highlights” as you’re ever going to see on YouTube. I thought I was providing “full highlights” with…
Read MoreNick Young 24 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (3/23/2018)
So Curry injured himself again in his first game back from an injured ankle. You and I both know what that means: Nick Young as the first option on offense! He scored a bunch in the fourth quarter of this one sans Curry, and if Curry isn’t back for the next game (RIP), Young should…
Read MoreMarcus Morris 30 Points Full Highlights (3/23/2018)
This is the Marcus Morris that the Celtics hoped they were getting when they traded Avery Bradley to the Pistons for him. The kind of Marcus Morris that shoots three-pointers really well. The kind of Marcus Morris that has the speed and power to take the ball inside when the situation calls for it. The…
Read MorePatty Mills 25 Points Full Highlights (3/23/2018)
It seems like it’s been so long since Patty Mills was an elite towel waver in Portland. His towels and his three-goggles (what happened to those, you never see them anymore), whatever he did on the court was overshadowed by his antics on the bench. And it has been a long time. Almost a decade…

Read MoreD’Angelo Russell Triple Double 18 Pts/13 Asts/11 Rebs Full Highlights (3/23/2018)
Is the Spencer Dinwiddie show over? I was really looking forward to the double-length season finale where he got a 50-people triple-double that led the Nets to the playoffs somehow. The D’Angelo Russell show is fine, but it’s severely lacking in the afros department as well as in the area of big goofy smiles. Dinwiddie…
