Dorian Finney-Smith Career High 19 Points Full Highlights (11/2/2018)

There doesn’t seem to be much hope around the league that Dorian Finney-Smith will ever be anything more than he is right now: an athletic small forward who doesn’t do a whole lot on the court or fill that stat sheet. I think defense is his calling card (plus the hustle that goes along with…

Dennis Smith Jr. 23 Points Full Highlights (11/2/2018)

I’m just noticing a heretofore un-noticed hitch in Dennis Smith Jr.’s free throw shooting motion. It’s almost like Chuck Hayes, obviously not as bad, but he sort of pauses and turns his wrist a little bit right before he lets it go. Has he always done this? Am I just being dumb for not realizing…

Luka Doncic 18 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (11/2/2018)

I was promised Luka Doncic to Dirk Nowitzki alley-oops. Right at the beginning of the season, Mark Cuban went on TV and said in front of everyone “At least once in every Mavericks game this season, Luka Doncic will throw the ball high into the air towards the basket but instead of trying to make…

Luka Doncic 31 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2018)

Luke Doncic looking fresh! His previous unshaven and disheveled appearance combined with his ever-so-slight tubbiness had him looking more like a basement-dwelling NBA-YouTube-commenting loser than an actual NBA player. Is “fresh” even still a term people use anymore? If not, I apologize for not knowing the latest lingo. At least be glad that I didn’t…

Dennis Smith Jr. Career High 27 Points Full Highlights (10/28/2018)

Sacrifices were made to make this the purest representation possible of Dennis Smith Jr.’s career -high 27 points on 12 made shots. There were no free-throws to ruin it in the first place, so I decided to go all out: this vid is nothing but 12 sequentially ordered buckets, no replays, no assists, no defense…

Luka Doncic 22 Points Full Highlights (10/26/2018)

Has anyone started a rumor yet that Luke Doncic isn’t really 19 but is in fact 5 years older (or more)? Because I’m looking at him, I’m looking at his facial hair ability, and I know that when I was 19 the best I could do was a few scraggly pubes at about 1.5 ppi…

Wesley Matthews 23 Points Full Highlights (10/24/2018)

Wesley Matthews is currently averaging 19 PPG, which would be the highest PPG total of his career by far if he finished the season at that mark (his previous high was 16 PPG back in 2013-14). For all my talk in the past few seasons of his achilles injury ruining his career, his career sure…

Luka Doncic 21 Points Full Highlights (10/24/2018)

I can’t believe ESPN chose to put the pupu-platter of Hawks vs Mavericks on national TV. Did they think that people wouldn’t notice that the teams were bad if they had them go head to head? Highly-touted Euro rookie versus highly-touted Hobbit rookie is compelling, but the main thing viewers were treated to was a…

Luka Doncic 19 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (10/22/2018)

Luka Doncic did a good job of diming DeAndre Jordan tonight. No one really cares if someone can make simple passes around the perimeter for jumpshooters. They care if you can find your bigman for easy buckets right at the rim. Those are the valuable assists, the ones that really count. If Doncic can keep…

Dwight Powell 19 Points Full Highlights (10/20/2018)

Dwight Powell AKA Dwight Power is currently leading the league in field goal percentage at a robust 80%. That obviously won’t continue, because no high-volume player has ever shot 80% from the field (even 70% is exceedingly rare), but I’m sure his FG% will remain high due to the continued excision of the jumpshot from…
