Trey Lyles 20 Points Full Highlights (1/29/2018)

Sometimes I wonder if aliens came and abducted the real version of Trey Lyles, and, in the spirit of intergalactic hospitality, gave us a cloned version of him that was way better at basketball. Because Lyles really, really sucked in his second year, and now he’s legit good. It wouldn’t even be that hard for…

Nikola Jokic 24 Points Full Highlights (1/29/2018)

The Nuggets scorekeepers really like giving Nikola Jokic some iffy assists, don’t they? He’s averaging almost 6 assists per game at home, but only 4.5 on the road. The culprit is all those handoffs he does with Murray/Harris/Barton. Some of them are legit, but some of them really aren’t. Like the last clip of this…

Gary Harris 24 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2018)

It’s weird to think about Gary Harris being a first-option on a team, but here we are. I’ve still got, in the back of my mind, visions of rookie-year Harris, you know, the one who sucked really bad, and those visions still slightly distort my perception of him. Even as he makes scoring look easy,…

Nikola Jokic Triple Double 11 Pts/16 Rebs/11 Asts Full Highlights (1/27/2018)

Nikola Jokic went about 2.5 quarters in a row without scoring the single, solitary point he needed for the “points” component of his usual triple-double. Even as he acquired the other stats with ease, he stubbornly refused to score. I spent most of that time yelling at my stream, telling the other Nuggets to stop…

Gary Harris 23 Points Full Highlights (1/25/2018)

Gary Harris + Nikola Jokic + Jamal Murray = big three? They’re all averaging over 16 points per game, but Gary Harris is averaging the most at 17 PPG, so if it’s a big three, they’re not actually that “big”. Maybe it’s a “medium three”. For some reason, telling people that the Nuggets have a…

Trey Lyles 21 Points Full Highlights (1/25/2018)

Even after Trey Lyles’ recent mini-slump, I’d like to register my support for him to win the Sixth Man of the Year award. I do this even though there’s probably a bunch of better candidates, and you know what, I’m fine with those other dudes winning. As long as it’s not Jamal Crawford. If that…

Nikola Jokic 18 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (1/25/2018)

The votes are in, and Nikola Jokic didn’t get selected for the All-Star game. No surprise there. Even the most ardent Jokiphiles had to admit that 16/10/5 on reduced efficiency from his previous year (a year that was maybe, very maybe, All-Star caliber) was not going to be enough. He’s so far out of the…

Jamal Murray Career High 38 Points Full Highlights (1/22/2018)

Andrew Wiggins is “Maple Jordan”. Sim Bhullar is “Maple Shaq”. Steve Nash is “Maple Cousy”. But who is “Maple Curry”? Don’t be stupid. You already know the answer. Come on man. Think about what video you are watching RIGHT NOW. Right at this very second, what player’s highlight video are you reading the description for?…

Jamal Murray 30 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (1/19/2018)

As this game drew closer and closer to its end, I was beginning to worry that Jamal Murray wasn’t even going to score 30. He had such a hot first half, and then a hot start to the third quarter, that 30 seemed like a forgone conclusion. Happily for me, for you, and for fans…

Mason Plumlee 16 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2018)

This is the first Plumlee video of any type I’ve made this season, and let me tell you: it sucks. I didn’t have high hopes for it, but even that minimal bar set by those meager hopes was not cleared. Not even close. I had to do it, though. A quick glance through the archives…
