Terrence Jones 24 Points Full Highlights (1/12/2017)

If Terrence Jones could hit his free throws, he would have had thirty instead of just twenty-four. But he had to go 3-of-9 from the welfare stripe, so instead of the narrative being “young player with potential is finally breaking out”, the narrative is just…nothing. There is no Terrence Jones narrative after this game. 24-point…

Tyreke Evans 29 Points Full Highlights (1/12/2017)

Good news for Pelicans fans: Tyreke Evans is alive! Not only alive, but alive just in time to counteract the untimely death of Anthony Davis. He had been alive for a few games before this one, but at varying levels. Some nights, he would look positively full of vigor, and other nights he would look…

Langston Galloway 20 Points Full Highlights (1/7/2017)

Question: will Langston Galloway, at any point in his career, shoot above 40% from the field for an entire season? He’s always been around the 39% mark, so it seems like he should be able to do it at least once as long as he’s not on a team that expects too much out of…

Donatas Motiejunas 11 Points Pelicans Debut Full Highlights (1/7/2017)

If Donatas Motiejunas goes hard, goes hard starting right now and keeps going hard for the rest of the season, he might earn himself a “Post Move-ilation”. He’s been getting jerked around by teams and their doctors a whole bunch this season, but now all that is behind him. It’s been a long time, and…

Buddy Hield 20 Points Full Highlights (1/2/2017)

How has the collective Internet populace not yet come up with the nickname “Butt Buddy” for Buddy Hield? I shouldn’t have to be the one to come up with this kind of stuff. It’s so obvious! It seems like whenever I start gaining a small amount of appreciation for what the Internet is capable of,…

Buddy Hield 17 Points Full Highlights (12/28/2016)

Buddy Hield has been picking it up lately, which is good, because otherwise he’d be one of the worst players in the league. As it stands, he’s squarely in the “below average” category, edging towards “average” if he’s having one of his good games, like he did tonight. I’ll never be able to live down…

Jrue Holiday 23 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (12/21/2016)

Usually I agree with Adam Silver’s decisions. In general I support him as commissioner. But he really dropped the ball on this one. Simply put, the Christmas game schedule is a travesty. How could you not put a Pelicans vs. Knicks game on there? If you’re too dense to figure it out, I’m talking about…

Terrence Jones 21 Points Full Highlights (12/21/2016)

“Mister? Mister? Spare some change for a veteran?” Terrence Jones glanced over at the previously-unseen man huddled in the entryway of a shop. It was too dark to read the cardboard sign that he held in one hand, but the fast food soft-drink cup held in the other hand, jangling with donated coins, was instantly…

Alexis Ajinca 16 Points Full Highlights (12/18/2016)

Let’s play a fun game: name the centers in the NBA who definitely have more skill offensively than Alexis Ajinca. -Anthony Davis -Karl-Anthony Towns -Enes Kanter -Maybe Pau Gasol -Jahlil Okafor -Brook Lopez -Joel Embiid (not really but if I didn’t put him here everybody would get all mad) That’s it. You think I’m being…

Jrue Holiday 16 Points/14 Assists Full Highlights (12/15/2016)

I’m getting tired of doing all these videos with all these assists in them. Only rarely are more than 2 or 3 of the assists worthy of being highlighted. The rest are just “pass the ball to a guy who shoots a jumper” or “pass the ball to a guy who dribbles a few times,…
