I wonder if the Lakers signed J.R. Smith with the intention of him being good and helping the team, or if they just signed him because it was funny and would attract approximately ~5-10 more viewers to the Lakers’ broadcasts. The Lakers are known for questionable veteran acquisitions, so I wouldn’t put it past them…

Talen Horton-Tucker 14 Points Full Highlights (8/13/2020)
Talen “THT Patrol” Horton-Tucker: is he another one of those end-of-season, end-of-bench Lakers players who has an okay stretch of games right before the playoffs and then doesn’t even get another NBA contract? Or is he one of those end-of-season, end-of-bench Lakers players who actually ends up having a role with the team the next…
Read MoreDion Waiters 19 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (8/13/2020)
Oops, totally forgot to put something here for this Dion Waiters vid, that’s what I get for being so hyped about Thomas Bryant (Lakers fans punching the air rn) I guess. Why waste time telling everyone what I really think about Waiters when I could be immortalizing yet another dominant game by Bryant? Smart people…
Read MoreQuinn Cook 21 Points Full Highlights (8/8/2020)
I still remember where I was when I found out that LeBron James was joining forces with some of the other stars in the league to form a superteam in Los Angeles. I was in my apartment, sitting in front of the computer, because that’s where I’ve been for at least 90% of my life….
Read MoreTalen Horton-Tucker 10 Points/4 Steals Full Highlights (8/6/2020)
Behold: buckets one through four of Talen Horton-Tucker’s presumably illustrious career. You are seeing it all, right now. A full-on bucketilation. Will it stay that way? There is a good chance that it will. We could be looking at 100 percent of his season bucket output contained in one single game. Which means that you…
Read MoreDion Waiters 14 Points Full Highlights (8/5/2020)
Shhh. Let me enjoy this moment. Let me enjoy the tortured shrieks of Lakers fans who are watching their championship aspirations crumble around them like so much worthless dust. My eyes are closed now. The only sense I am currently using is my sense of hearing. Can you hear them too? Can you hear the…
Read MoreDion Waiters 11 Points Lakers Debut Full Highlights (7/30/2020)
The oft-mocked acquisition of Dion Waters by the Lakers has already paid dividends. Because I don’t think it’s wrong to say that Waiters WON this game for his new team. Take away his 5 buckets (only one fewer bucket than LeBron, take that for data), take away his 11 points, and do the Lakers come…
Read MoreLeBron James All 75 Dunks Full Highlights (2019-20 Season Dunkilation)
There was a mysterious beeping coming from behind him and to his right. But it didn’t sound like his alarm clock. This beeping was much less melodious than the beeping that he woke up to every morning. LeBron opened his eyes to look. But when he saw his surroundings, all thoughts of his alarm dropped…
Read MoreJaVale McGee All 109 Dunks Full Highlights (2019-20 Season Dunkilation)
JaVale McGee stepped out of the taxi and, after collecting his luggage from the trunk, gave the driver a sizable tip. In one of the carriers, a trio of restless penguins stared out at the unfamiliar surroundings with distrust, then back to JaVale, as if demanding an answer to their silent question, “where are we?”….
Read MoreAvery Bradley 24 Points Full Highlights (3/8/2020)
Avery Bradley’s primary offensive skill, which is to handle the ball, wait for a screen, and then pick-and-pop into a fifteen-to-twenty-two-foot jumpshot, is not seeing much use now that he’s on the Lakers and always sharing the court with a player who can make a legitimate claim at being top five in the NBA (one…
