Jordan Clarkson scored half the points of Devin Booker tonight, but made double the three-pointers. So, when considering which performance is the more impressive one, just decide if you like points or threes more. Me? I’m a downtown kind of guy. Just call me DownTownBuck. There’s nothing that I enjoy more in the NBA than…

Jordan Clarkson 30 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (3/12/2017)
The Lakers have had a lot of turnover the last few years. I was pretty sure Jordan Clarkson was the longest-tenured Laker on the roster, but I was totally wrong: Nick Young has him beat by one year. Still, Clarkson has to be considered one of the Lakers’ core pieces at this point, since they’ve…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NhRfTg1o8V4 I take many steps to ensure that my Philippines-based viewership is kept well fed and happy. For my channel, the Philippines account for the second most traffic of any country, after the good old US of A. 8.4% of my total minutes watched coming from a country that loves basketball but is cursed with…

It is never too early to start discussing 6MOTY candidates just like it is never too early to start discussing Christmas presents with your mom (I really need a new guitar and a skateboard. Mom are you reading this?). With Nick Young(?) apparently entrenched as the starter at shooting guard, Jordan Clarkson probably won’t start…

OFFICIAL “NEXT KOBE” ON THE LAKERS POWER RANKINGS 1. Jordan Clarkson. This guy definitely has the scoring skills to be the next Kobe for the Lakers. That’s not to say he’ll be as good as Kobe, just that he’ll adequately fill the role of “scoring SG” for the team. There is even a ready-built nickname…

Before I can anoint Jordan Clarkson future king of LA, I need to find out if he plays defense. His skills at scoring the ball are no longer in question. Since he no longer plays at the point guard position, he skills at distributing the ball are no longer relevant. But defense is always relevant….

Fret not, Jordan Clarkson fans. It is only a matter of time before your quarter-Filipino idol becomes the Lakers’s shooting guard of the future. Kobe will be retiring soon. Nick Young and Lou Williams are still, regrettably, under contract for a few more years, but those deals can be moved. Or you can just bench…

That’s lame. Kobe Bryant’s last game at the Garden and he’s not even the leading scorer on his own team? It took him eighteen shots to get his fifteen points so it would only take him 29 shots to score 25, which is one more than Clarkson scored. That amount of shots is well within…

Is Jordan Clarkson legit the best player on the Lakers? That team is so bereft of quality players that he might be. -Kobe Bryant: old, decrepit, broken-down, and done. Shooting 33% from the field. 20% from three on seven attempts per game. In terms of win production, it’s not close between him and Clarkson -Roy…

You want to hear something trippy? The third most popular video all-time on my channel is a video of Jordan Clarkson scoring thirty points; it has 380,000 views at the time of this writing. That’s a lot of Filipinos! When you’re not making Durant and LeBron videos you have to take the successes where you…
