Marco Belinelli, in this video, continues his trend of only taking tough shots. He got an open one early on, but after that, he had to run off a million screens just to take a crappy jumper. Some would say that’s the hallmark of a good shooter: being so keyed on by defenses that you…
Read MoreWayne Ellington 28 Points/8 Threes Full Highlights (12/22/2017)
I am completely confident in calling this game a revenge game for Wayne “Beef W” Ellington. You know why? Because the Mavericks DELIBERATELY and MALICIOUSLY attempted to DESTROY his career. WITH EXTREME PREJUDICE. Ellington played for Dallas during 2013-14 season, having been signed as a free agent. He appeared in only 45 games despite not…
Read MoreEnes Kanter 22 Points Full Highlights (12/22/2017)
You know, I kind of like it when Enes Kanter was shooting threes. He wasn’t great at it, he never took all that many, and it made him less effective at the one thing he’s really good at (offensive rebounding), but it was fun. He’s taken only one this year from deep, and he’s taking…
Read MoreBen Simmons 20 Points Full Highlights (12/21/2017)
The quality of my life is significantly improved if I get to make a Ben Simmons highlight video but it doesn’t have to contain his assists. It just frees up so much time for me to do other things if Simmons, instead of getting eight or ten or twelve assists, gets a paltry amount like…
Read MoreRodney Hood 29 Points Full Highlights (12/21/2017)
While undertaking the compilation and editing of this video, I was constantly bombarded with extremely strong Khris Middleton vibes. The crafty moves to get inside, the fearless jumper, the compulsion to embarrass a smaller defender with a turnaround jimbo, those are all things that I have watched Middleton do for some time. And now I…
Read MoreMichael Beasley 32 Points Full Highlights (12/21/2017)
MVP chants for Michael “Waffle Fries” Beasley? The crowd at MSG maybe overdid it a bit, but I’m in favor. They’ve been doing it a bunch for Porzingis, and what Beasley did tonight, 32 points in 25 minutes to go with a bunch of rebounds, was just in line with what the Lithuanian does regularly….
Read MoreDenzel Valentine 18 Points Full Highlights (12/21/2017)
Denzel Valentine: fastest gun in the East? When this guy is tasked with taking a catch-and-shoot three with a defender somewhere in the area, he just flings it up there. It’s not Anthony Morrow-level don’t-even-dip-the-ball-just-shoot-it-from-wherever-you-caught-it, but he doesn’t take much time at all. That, combined with his lack of follow-through, mean that he has one…
Read MoreT.J. Warren 27 Points Full Highlights (12/21/2017)
Come on T.J. you can do it. 20 points per game. You’re almost there. You’re practically at 19, which is basically 20. Just a few more 30-point games and you’ll have it. I believe in you. You can do it. Shoot a few more threes, get that percentage above 20, I see you’re taking more…
Read MoreKris Dunn 10 Points/14 Assists Full Highlights (12/21/2017)
Kris Dunn fans will note that this performance bears an eerie resemblance to one he had last year with the Timberwolves, a 10-point 16-assist(how) effort back when everyone thought he was a bust for sure. This is still a pretty crazy passing display by him, but it’s not as mind-bendingly balls-to-the-wall insane-o mania like the…
Read MoreDario Saric 18 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (12/21/2017)
I was getting hyped for a potential Dario Saric triple-double, but it didn’t happen. He fell just short, notching 9 dimes. I blame Ben Simmons for hogging the ball, Jerryd Bayless for sucking, DeMar DeRozan for scoring so many points, and Joel Embiid for being injured. I do not blame Saric himself. He did all…
