Will Barton 25 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (2/25/2018)

Will Barton: super ultra discount version of James Harden? Let’s go with it. Sounds a lot better than “Corey Brewer 2.0”. The similarities are all there, but not as good: the beard, the shooting/chucking, the driving/finishing ability, passing, and… that’s about it. Not nearly as much foul-drawing ability, but that’s a good thing. Also more…

Nikola Jokic 21 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (2/25/2018)

Nikola Jokic’s triple-double streak has ended. He had a good chance to continue it, but he only picked up one assist in the fourth quarter. It’s easy to blame his teammates for the lack of generated assists, but I’m not going there. Jokic himself would never blame his fellow Nuggets. Instead, I’m going to blame…

Gary Harris 23 Points Full Highlights (2/23/2018)

Gary Harris and Nikola Jokic: the next Kobe Bryant and Lamar Odom? Nuggets fans might balk at comparing the great Nikola Jokic to Lamar Odom, who was never a star but was one of the best passing bigs of his time, and they might chuckle at the idea that Harris can compare to the Kobe…

Nikola Jokic Triple Double 28 Pts/11 Rebs/11 Asts Full Highlights (2/23/2018)

Is Nikola Jokic, officially, “back”? He was looking so far from his usual self that I wondered if he fell off the wagon and started drinking (Coca-Cola) again. I wasn’t yet thinking that maybe the Jokic of last year was an anomaly, but maybe I started thinking about thinking about it. Now he has three…

Jamal Murray 26 Points Full Highlights (2/15/2018)

The Nuggets commentators kept bringing up Jamal Murray’s 36-point performance in last year’s Rising Stars challenge. I guess he’s doing it again this year? That’s all fine, good for him, except I don’t think those commentators realized that NO ONE gives even one half of a crap about the Rising Stars game. You’d be hard…

Gary Harris 28 Points Full Highlights (2/15/2018)

The Bucks apparently still have problems defending the three, because they just let the Nuggets can 25 triples while they stood around and waited for Giannis to bail them out. The Harrises accounted for 7 of them, 5 of them from Gary Harris who is the Harris who we are talking about right now. Devin…

Nikola Jokic Triple Double 30 Pts/15 Rebs/17 Asts Full Highlights (2/15/2018)

Nikola Jokic absentmindedly grabbed his mail out of his mailbox and walked into his house. His thoughts were focused on what he would do during the extended break that surrounded the NBA’s All-Star festivities: it was between playing video games all week to make a dent in his Steam backlog or lying around and doing…

Nikola Jokic Triple Double 23 Pts/13 Rebs/11 Asts Full Highlights (2/13/2018)

Here’s an idea: if we can somehow, using the power of crowdsourcing, convince Nikola Jokic that every Nuggets game is being nationally televised, we can get a triple-double out of him every game! It’s a little late in the season to go for Westbrook’s record, but if we can continue the ruse for the duration…

Will Barton 25 Points/5 Assists/1 Fight Full Highlights (2/10/2018)

Every time I use the word “fight” in the title of a video, I get a little uneasy, for several reasons. First reason is, advertising that the video contains a “fight” (usually just a scuffle or exchange of words) feels like clickbait. I’m not Buzzfeed here. Second reason is, I know that the NBA really…

Wilson Chandler 26 Points Full Highlights (2/10/2018)

What happened to Wilson Chandler? I remember advocating for him multiple times for 6MOY, he ended up starting too many games but averaged a career-high 16 points per game anyway. He was GOOD. I liked him a lot, then this season came around and he regressed hard. Way harder than one thinks a guy who…
