With the emergence of all sorts of scoring threats from all corners of the Nuggets roster (still waiting on Michael Porter Jr. btw he’s gonna be a beast), Will Barton has seen a slight downturn in his scoring this season. When a team has been doing good with you sitting on the bench, injured, like…

Nikola Jokic 36 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (2/26/2019)
Nikola Jokic had like five whole minutes with which to get the last rebound he needed for a triple-double. For some of that time, he didn’t have the last assist, so maybe the urgency wasn’t quite there because of that, but still. That’s a lot of time, and it was only one rebound. Rebounds are…
Read MoreNikola Jokic 22 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2019)
Under normal circumstances, a pedestrian statline of 22/16/3 for Nikola Jokic would not be worthy of highlights, given that he averages 20/10/8. But these are not normal circumstances. There were only three games tonight, so I get off easy in terms of the amount of highlight videos that need to get made. Frankly, I’m very…
Read MoreMalik Beasley 21 Points/1 Ejection Full Highlights (2/13/2019)
It’s much more fun to imagine Malik Beasley getting ejected for straight-up punching a ref, or straight-up punching a fan, or straight-up punching Michael Beasley (where is he now, is he even on a team?????), or straight-up punching anybody else in the arena, including himself, than to know how he actually got ejected. Ready for…
Read MorePaul Millsap 25 Points Full Highlights (2/13/2019)
I’ve been hating on Paul Millsap for what might seem to be, to the outside observer, spurious or trivial reasons. Mostly it’s a reaction to him being grossly overpaid (thirty million dollars!) for his level of production. It also seems like the Nuggets play well whether or not he’s actually suiting up for games, and…
Read MoreNikola Jokic Triple Double 20 Pts/18 Rebs/11 Asts/1 Game-Winner Full Highlights (2/13/2019)
DTB has been pandering to Serbs for a long time. Whether it is by acknowledging their rich culture, their bloody yet brave history, the unbelievable attractiveness of their women, the stout handsomeness of their men, their unrivaled passion for the sportsmen and sportswomen of their country, the bountiful natural beauty of their lands, the high…
Read MoreMonte Morris 17 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (2/11/2019)
Well, the trade deadline has come and gone, and the Nuggets didn’t make any major roster shakeups. Paul Millsap is still there, and so is Jamal Murray, and so is Gary Harris, so my grand plan to have all three of those guys traded to the Pelicans for Anthony Davis will have to be shelved…
Read MoreNikola Jokic 23 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2019)
The second clip in this video contains what is, in my view, the worst Eurostep ever. As a person from Europe, Nikola Jokic was brought into this world with the innate ability to do Eurosteps, but I think his instincts got corrupted a little bit because this one was really awkward (and also probably a…
Read MoreMalik Beasley 23 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2019)
During the leadup to the trade deadline, where rumors and speculation were flying around like so many cursed bats, I heard a rumor that disturbed me. As the kids would say, I was “shook”. This rumor involved the Nuggets trading Gary Harris. Now, I am not quite as #hypedforgaryharris as I used to be, that’s…
Read MoreNikola Jokic Triple Double 27 Pts/10 Rebs/10 Asts Full Highlights (2/8/2019)
OFFICIAL LIST OF THINGS I BLAME FOR THE NUGGETS LOSING TO THE SIXERS POWER RANKINGS 1. Nikola Jokic. A triple-double is cool, but a fifty-point quadruple-double with ten steals would have likely resulted in a win. 2. J.J. Redick. 34 points. Why did he decide to go off in the first game of the Butler/Harris/Embiid/Simmons…
