Tristan Thompson 23 Points/5 Blocks Full Highlights (10/30/2019)

Last night, Tristan Thompson made eleven field goals. Only twice in his career has he made more than that, once in 2012 and once in 2014. He also attempted nineteen field goals, which is a career high. For a guy who’s not known as a scorer, he sure was doing it a lot in this…

Tristan Thompson 25 Points/1 Three Full Highlights (10/26/2019)

Tristan Thompson had played in 563 regular-season NBA games prior to tonight. In all 563 of those games, he made exactly zero three-pointers. In 554 of those games, he attempted exactly zero three-pointers. The scouting report on him was very clear: he does not shoot threes. Ever. And if he sometimes accidentally shoots a three,…

Collin Sexton All 132 Midrange Jumpers Full Highlights (2018-19 Season Jumperilation)

The decision to create a Collin Sexton midrange-ilation was pretty much made by month two of his rookie campaign. His scoring game up to that point seemed entirely reliant on the midrange shot. Crowning him as the next Chris Paul would have been premature – their similarities began and ended with the ability to smoothly…

Collin Sexton 27 Points Full Highlights (4/5/2019)

Why are people still pretending that the Warriors are invulnerable? LeBron James has proved that “playoff mode” doesn’t exist, and what we’re seeing from the Warriors is what we’re going to get in the playoffs. And what we saw tonight was them taking their foot off the gas and letting a rookie named Collin Sexton…

Collin Sexton 21 Points Full Highlights (3/30/2019)

My motivation to write anything interesting or informative for this video description is at an all-time low. Collin Sexton has had so many good games recently (each one of them deserving a highlight video from yours truly) that the well of talking points for these descriptions has run entirely dry. You can tell this is…

Jordan Clarkson 26 Points Full Highlights (3/30/2019)

Jordan Clarkson is averaging the most points of his career, but since this section of his career is occurring in Cleveland, and not in Los Angeles, people don’t really care that much. Before, he was a young draft steal in a major market. Now, he’s a chucker on one of the worst teams in the…

Collin Sexton 24 Points Full Highlights (3/28/2019)

I feel like Collin Sexton is taking advantage of me right now. He knows that I’m committed to making highlight videos for him (as I am for all rookies), so he’s purposely scoring twenty points or more in pretty much every game since the All-Star break. He must be very vain if his primary motivation…

Collin Sexton 24 Points Full Highlights (3/26/2019)

Collin Sexton in March: 23/3/3 on 52% shooting and 47% from three. Just think about that for a moment. For a guy who, at the beginning of the season, was drawing ire from his teammates (mostly J.R. Smith and Rodney Hood probably) for “not knowing how to play basketball”, those are sick numbers. They’re sick…

Collin Sexton 20 Points Full Highlights (3/22/2019)

Imagine being Collin Sexton: you have 20 points early-ish in the third quarter, then you get subbed out for Nik Stauskas. You are forced to pretend to be happy, to clap and cheer for him with a smile while raging on the inside. You don’t get to come back into the game until there are…

Collin Sexton 25 Points Full Highlights (3/20/2019)

If the ROTY of the Year award was as “what have you done for me recently” as the MVP award, Collin Sexton would be way in the lead. Sure, Trae Young had that 49-point game, but that was practically a million years ago now, and he hasn’t been as amazing these last few games. Meanwhile,…
