I have decided that what I need more of in my life is close-up shots of Dewayne Dedmon doing his customary three-pointer celebration, which is to make a “phone” with his hand and hold it up to his face, implying that he’s “dialing from three”. There is really nothing else I can think of that…

Kent Bazemore Career High 32 Points Full Highlights (12/26/2018)
Is it a good sign when a player scores a career-high in points, and not a wimpy career-high, but a really solid and nice career-high, and it doesn’t even feel like they did much during the game? I can’t tell if Kent Bazemore’s quiet 32 points is good or bad. Of course, it’s all subjective….
Read MoreVince Carter 18 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (12/23/2018)
Vince Carter is in his 21st season in the league. Only four other players have played that many years in the NBA without perishing in the process. You know the list already, but here it is again: -Robert Parish -Kevin Willis -Kevin Garnett -Dirk Nowitzki -Vince Carter It is a sign of how much I…
Read MoreKent Bazemore 22 Points Full Highlights (12/21/2018)
When all is said and done, Kent “Bazed God” Bazemore’s career is likely to be forgotten by all by the most ardent NBA enthusiasts. Only those with an inclination to the obscure and unknown will bother to recall his name or his teams. Even I will forget about him, just like I had forgotten about…
Read MoreDewayne Dedmon Career High 24 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (12/16/2018)
Is it bad that I don’t remember much, if anything, from Dewayne Dedmon’s two years with the Orlando Magic? I probably made a bunch of videos for him (now deleted, but I have backups) from that time period, but the contents of those videos are a mystery to me. Sometimes I think my memory for…
Read MoreJohn Collins 29 Points Full Highlights (12/16/2018)
Hawks commentator Dominique Wilkins implored his team to get John Collins the ball more a bunch of times just in the parts of the game that are shown in the video. I wonder how many more times he said it that we missed. Probably every possession where Collins didn’t touch the rock. I would guess…
Read MoreKevin Huerter 19 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (12/14/2018)
Kevin “Huert Feelings” Huerter really looks like someone who should be playing for the Boston Celtics right now. I don’t know what it is, but there’s just something about him that screams “BOSTON!”. Is it the fact that he shoots threes and the Celtics could use more three-point shooters? That doesn’t seem quite right, somehow….
Read MoreTrae Young 24 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (12/12/2018)
The good news with Trae Young’s lackluster rookie season is that his counting stats still look pretty good. If he’s looking at the bigger picture, playing the long game, he’ll know that if you want to score 20,000 points in a career you can’t really take any time off. You have to score lots of…
Read MoreKevin Huerter 19 Points Full Highlights (12/12/2018)
Attention Kevin Huerter: the “Red Mamba” nickname has already been taken by Matt Bonner, and I think he’s still using it (at least he should be). You can keep the “Red Velvet” nickname, although I suggest you not use it in public, because it sounds kinda… weird. Velvet is not a good concept for dudes…
Read MoreDeAndre’ Bembry 18 Points/5 Assists/3 Blocks Full Highlights (12/8/2018)
DeAndre’ Bembry has set and re-set his career-high a few times this season, going from 13 to 14 to 16 to 18. The next milestone is one of significance for him: the big two-oh. Twenty points. In one game. While hisate teammate John Collins, also a prodigious setter of career highs, now has his sights…
