If you thought that Kenneth Faried’s three-point make during his first game with the Rockets was a sign of things to come (as I did), you were wrong. Since that game, he has taken three more triples, and missed them all. Not so bad given the small sample size, since he’s still 1 for 6…

Gerald Green 25 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (2/2/2019)
The Rockets are James Harden now. It’s been building for a while, but this is the year I feel like every other Rocket aside from him is utterly irrelevant, a background actor in the movie of Harden’s scoring insanity. Even Chris Paul, the supposed best PG of our generation. Do you hear anything about him…

With Chris Paul back on the court for the Rockets, we can expect more of this from Kenneth Faried. We were already getting it, somehow, I don’t know how because James Harden isn’t super interested in passing right now, but with CP3, Faried should get tons of free dunks. That’s the best passing PG he’s…

Jahlil Okafor may have beat out Kenneth Faried in the “discarded bigmen who might be good but also might not be good because why else would their old teams give up on them so easily” battle, and maybe his team also won the game based on his efforts, but I’m still really happy for Faried…

Unlike the last video I made, which featured Jeff Green having what was clearly NOT A REVENGE GAME against the Magic, this game by P.J. “Peej” Tucker against the Raptors was very obviously a REVENGE GAME. Tucker was a rookie with the Raptors in the 2006-07 season, at the age of 21. He played seventeen…

In a development that is surprising no one except for Kenny Atkinson, Kenneth Faried is thriving in Houston. All they needed was a big body to run around and dunk things, and that’s exactly what they got. A match made in heaven. Faried is who he is at this point, since I don’t truly believe…

Surprise, surprise. Kenneth Faried gets actual minutes, and he produces. Take notes, Kennocoachingability Atkinsdiet. You give Faried the chance to get on the court, and he immediately starts grabbing balls and putting them in holes, hair flopping wildly behind him. I don’t really know why he didn’t get minutes on the Nets, maybe it was…

Watching the present iteration of the Rockets is almost comical. Teams have decided that they are willing to let the Rockets’ role-players shoot wide open threes rather than let Harden do what he wants. Some of those role-players, like James Nunnally, what the heck is he doing out there, aren’t capable of making those teams…
Read MoreEric Gordon 30 Points Full Highlights (1/19/2019)
Eric Gordon ROBBED (remember, typing things in all caps is how to get people to pay attention to your work) James Harden of a 50-burger by selfishly hogging all the foulball free throws at the end of the game. Who would you want shooting those game-sealing gimmes? The meatball whose only accomplishment in the game…

People think that the highlight videos I make are the star of the show and everything else is an afterthought, but here’s the truth: the stuff I make is an overarching work that comprises three equal parts. The video itself, the description, and the thumbnail. All three of those things are of equal importance to…
