Danuel House 18 Points Full Highlights (3/15/2019)

This is Danuel House’s first NBA action since January 14. In the intervening two months, after he ran out of NBA eligibility on his two-way contract, he has spent his time in what I call “The Desolate Contractual Void”. The Desolate Contractual Void (shortened to “DCV” or just “The Void”) is not a pleasant place…

Eric Gordon 26 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2019)

I really need to decide if Eric Gordon is or isn’t too good for my channel. He must not be, because this video is sitting here in front of your face right now. As of right now, he isn’t, but his threshold for points before I showcase him is pretty high. Even though he kinda…

Eric Gordon 32 Points/8 Threes Full Highlights (3/3/2019)

I mentioned it before in my previous Eric Gordon video description and I’ll mention it again: there is a serious disconnect between the amount of three-pointers that Gordon takes and how good he is at said three-pointers. He is currently fifth in the league at three-point attempts per game (at 8.6, losing out only to…

Gary Clark 14 Points Full Highlights (2/28/2019)

When I saw that Gary Clark had 14 points in this game, my first thought was, “Great! Now I get to see what Gary Clark looks like!” Hold back your gasps of incredulity, Rockets fans. Yes, it is true that I don’t care enough about the Rockets to watch any of their games and thus…

P.J. Tucker 18 Points Full Highlights (2/23/2019)

I didn’t resent making this video, my thirtieth of the day, as much as I thought I would. Normally I’m not a huge fan of P.J. Tucker because he’s not much of a scorer, and when he does score, it’s usually on three-pointers and nothing else. I made this video out of an obligation to…

Eric Gordon 25 Points Full Highlights (2/23/2019)

For a while now I’ve considered Eric Gordon to be like an ultra-discount version of James Harden. He’s not THAT heavily discounted in terms of contract size (getting paid 13.5 million this season) but he is discounted in terms of basketball skills. He can do most things that Harden can do, but he does them…

Kenneth Faried 20 Points/2 Threes Full Highlights (2/23/2019)

A whole bunch of narratives just imploded all at once during this Rockets-Warriors game. Let’s do a run down: The “James Harden needs to carry the Rockets harder than anyone has carried anybody since 2005 Kobe” narrative: SMASHED The “Chris Paul is washed” narrative: DESTROYED The “Stephanie Lurry’s name is actually Stephen Curry” narrative: OBSOLETED…

Gerald Green 19 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2019)

I think that, just for one game, Gerald Green should get to statpad like James Harden did at the end of this one. In case you haven’t been paying attention to the NBA for the past two months, Harden is on an extended streak of games where he’s scored thirty or more. Harden was at…

Kenneth Faried 17 Points Full Highlights (2/9/2019)

I know what you’re thinking and, yes, I agree with you. The camera angle for this ESPN broadcast was way too zoomed out for watching this game to be anything other than a massive headache. Do they think we want the immersive experience of sitting in the very back of the upper bowl? I could…

Gerald Green 25 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2019)

OFFICIAL GREENHOUSE STATUS UPDATE: (note: “Greenhouse” refers to the Rockets’ three-and-dunk specialist pair of Gerald Green and Danuel House) Gerald Green had 25 points this game, the second-leading scorer behind James Harden. This is coming on the heels of another 25-point game four days ago. While he again didn’t make an impact in any stats…
