Naz Reid 24 Points Full Highlights (4/21/2021)

https://youtu.be/NXZQCF_GHT4 There was a time when I considered Naz “Big Nazty” Reid to be the second coming of Jeff Adrien. I know that, for a lot of you, that comparison lacks any meaning at all because you don’t know who Jeff Adrien is. And I also know that, for a different segment of my viewership,…

Jaden McDaniels 20 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (3/11/2021)

https://youtu.be/42PNB5RVM0g Is there anything better in the NBA than a long, skinny shooter? No, I don’t think there is. There’s a reason why Kevin Durant is considered by many to be the best scorer in NBA history. It’s because the aesthetics of a guy with twig arms shooting every type of jumpshot imaginable are unrivaled….

Jaylen Nowell Career High 28 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (3/11/2021)

https://youtu.be/YcwzVqrb9DM I just edited and uploaded this highlight video, so I should be better-equipped to answer this question than anybody, but how did Jaylen Nowell score 28 in this game? Nowell’s scoring has improved significantly from his rather unremarkable rookie season, where he appeared in just 15 games and shot a sizzling 11% from the…

Anthony Edwards Career High 28 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (2/16/2021)

https://youtu.be/yKM-5wo4Swc Anthony Edwards has been the starter in Minnesota since Jarrett Culver went out. I was not really aware that this had taken place, but it’s been like three weeks now that Edwards has been starting games. I feel like my grip on all things NBA related is starting to slip away from me, to…

Naz Reid Career High 29 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2021)

https://youtu.be/eWZGSGE2opY If Naz Reid had hit that game-tying shot, man, that would’ve been the gnarliest thing ever. Leading his team back from a huge deficit, hitting the game-tier, who knows what he would’ve done in overtime, and best of all, he would’ve qualified to enter the Hall Of The Thirty Point Scorers, where he could…

Anthony Edwards 25 Points Full Highlights (1/27/2021)

https://youtu.be/-DBf4_2BQM4 Amid the barren, frigid wastelands that constitute the geography of Minnesota, there isn’t ever much hope to be found, either in basketball or in any other facet of life. The average Minnesotan subsists on a diet of tater tot casserole, Lutheranism, and “snow tea” (which is just melted snow with pine needles added). It’s…

Jarred Vanderbilt 16 Points Full Highlights (1/23/2021)

https://youtu.be/vrpkIu_jIVA “He’s not one of those guys that’s gonna beat you with skill” says the Pelicans commentator (the annoying one, not Joel Meyers), not knowing that his team is about to be embarrassed by the not-so-skill-less Jarred Vanderbilt. It’s almost cinematic, that the first audio clip in this video so perfectly sets up the dominance…

Anthony Edwards 26 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2021)

https://youtu.be/GO1V8ViWxak As a consequence of my semi-retirement, I haven’t been paying attention to NBA drama as much as I used to. It’s relaxing to not have to try to keep track of who tweeted what or who gave sus interview answers or who is rumored to be involved in some random trade scenario. However, the…

Juan Hernangomez 25 Points Full Highlights (1/5/2021)

https://youtu.be/E5kvfxflcMk Juan Hernangomez has not been very good to start the season. Sometime between the abrupt end of the Timberwolves’ season back in March 2020, and the resumption of Timberwolves basketball in December 2020, his hot three-point shooting turned cold. Maybe COVID prevented him from having access to a gym and so all he could…

Juan Hernangomez 18 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2020)

Normally, in situations such as these, I would be readying my tear-harvesting machinery for use on fans of the Denver Nuggets. After all, their team is the one that gave up Juan Hernangomez, who has turned out to be a viable stretch four in the NBA and will be lowkey one of the more coveted…
