Dallas Mavericks – Page 29

Nicolas Brussino 11 Points Full Highlights (3/15/2017)

Every time a little-played rookie makes a shot in their limited minutes, the commentators bleat endlessly about “confidence”. This is especially true for rookies who aren’t shooting especially well. Rookies like Nicolas Brussino. But what if Brussino DIDN’T have confidence in this game? What if he was just jacking up shots because they were open?…

Yogi Ferrell 17 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2017)

The Mavericks are clearly emboldened by their success in finding Yogi Ferrell. They’re cycling through D-Leaguers so fast that I’m starting to lose track of which 10-dayers are actually on their team and which are long gone. I guess that’s the right strategy, because for every Yogi you have 10 Ben Bentils. Gotta maintain as…

Quinn Cook 10 Points/3 Assists Full Highlights (3/7/2017)

Yawn. Who cares about some lanky Euro guy scoring his 30,000th point? The REAL highlight of last night’s Mavs-Lakers game was getting to watch a thing called “Quinn Cook” score ten points on 4-of-6 shooting. You know, truth be told, I’m pretty sure Quinn Cook could score 30,000 points in the NBA if you simply…

Yogi Ferrell 16 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/7/2017)

Apparently other stuff happened in tonight’s Mavericks game besides Dirk Nowitzki hitting 30,000 for his career. I know! It didn’t seem right to me either, but I looked at the play-by-play just now and there were a bunch of non-Dirk entries there. The boxscore said Yogi Ferrell scored 16 points and had 7 assists, but…

Seth Curry 22 Points Full Highlights (3/5/2017)

That’s four twenty-point games in a row for Seth Curry after he had “just” six of them in the first 54 games of the season. At what point does he become the main offensive guy behind Barnes? Or as he already become that guy by surpassing Nowitzki? The Mavs haven’t been giving me many reasons…

Yogi Ferrell 17 Points Full Highlights (3/3/2017)

Yogi Ferrell is quickly earning a reputation among highlight-makers (actually just me) of a guy whose assists just aren’t that good. He still gets them, and they’re still good basketball plays or whatever, but he’s more of a Brandon Knight who just gets assists because he has the ball in his hands a lot instead…

Seth Curry 24 Points Full Highlights (3/3/2017)

I know I said I wouldn’t compare Seth Curry and Stephen Curry anymore. So I won’t, even though I really want to. It’s just SO EASY. Primo description material, talking about how Seth is shooting better than Steph, how is headband game is so much more polished, how they both look like cute little lorises….

Seth Curry 21 Points Full Highlights (3/1/2017)

It really sucks that Stephen Curry isn’t having as good of a season as he is capable of, because his lackluster-ness is causing people to not care about Seth Curry as much as they should. Come on people! Seth is basically a legit third option on an NBA team right now. It might not be…

Seth Curry 29 Points Full Highlights (2/27/2017)

Oof. DownToBuck isn’t feeling so hot right now. This description is gonna suck because I ate something funky and need to lie down for a bit. So… Seth Curry. I would make a joke about how he stole his brother’s powers, resulting in a 29-point game for him and an 0/11 three-point shooting performance for…

Dorian Finney-Smith 12 Points Full Highlights (2/25/2017)

Dorian Finney-Smith is pretty good for being named after a musical mode. I’m not an expert music theorist, but a Dorian mode scale is apparently just a natural minor scale except the sixth note is sharp. It’s also just the white notes on a piano keyboard if you start from D and go up to…
