Nicolas Batum 26 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (1/20/2018)

With the recent revelation that Kemba Walker is on the trade block, a few other big names on the Hornets have been mentioned as on the chopping block as well. The whole reason Kemba needs to be traded is to help clear out another bad contract from the Hornets so that they can properly rebuild,…

Nicolas Batum 21 Points Full Highlights (1/2/2018)

This video is all jumpers. All of it. No LAMEups. Just nothing but jumpers. You like jumpers, don’t you? Of course you do. Every NBA fan does. So watch this video, dumbass. Okay? Trust me on this one. It’s good. You’ll like it. Batum sucks now, which is too bad because the Hornets are paying…

Nicolas Batum 23 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (12/16/2017)

Even if Nic “The Lisieux Laser” Batum hadn’t come right out and said “my injury is affecting the way I play”, most close observers of the Hornets could easily tell that something is wrong with him. He’s normally been an effective shooter who simply had fallen prey to bad shot selection, but now his percentages…

Nicolas Batum 31 Points Full Highlights (4/8/2017)

That was it, Hornets fans. The last chance to see your beloved team playing at home, not to be seen again until October. Nicolas Batum scored 31 on a vast array of jumpers, but it was not quite enough against a superior Celtics team. And so Buzz City sleeps, ready to buzz again come autumn….

Nicolas Batum 18 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (3/26/2017)

It’s a little bit worrying that the Hornets pulled out to a 23-3 lead early against the Suns and then ended up seeing the lead cut down to four in the fourth quarter. It sort of calls into question their playoff-worthiness; then again, most of the things they’ve been doing since January have called into…

Nicolas Batum 24 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (3/11/2017)

This video is just another exhibit, another piece of evidence to be used in explaining Nic Batum’s sub-40% shooting from the field (okay, fair’s fair, he dragged it up to exactly 40% after last night’s game). All his made field goals, save one, were jumpshots, and many of them were very tough jumpshots. If you…

Nicolas Batum 21 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (3/4/2017)

Just like that Kentavious Caldwell-Pope dude who’s a few videos back in my Big Ol’ List of Videos, Nic “I Hate Juan Carlos Navarro’s Balls” Batum suffers from serious consistency issues. He can have games like this one where he’s an effective shooter and a great passer, and then he can have games like the…

Nicolas Batum 31 Points/8 Threes Full Highlights (2/26/2017)

I thought for sure that eight would be the most three-balls that Nic Batum had hit in a game. After all, Batum is a decent three-point shooter, but he’s never been one who takes a high volume of shots from out there. However, back in 2012 while was still on the Blazers, he hit nine…

Nicolas Batum 25 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (2/11/2017)

The NBA, earlier in the season, reached “Peak Nicolas”, where there were three separate dudes named Nicolas plying their trade for the association. Add in the four “Nikola”s, and I’m thinking what happened to dudes just named “Nick”? Nick Collison doesn’t count (too old). This is America, this isn’t some other heathen country, this is…

Nicolas Batum 15 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (2/9/2017)

Nicolas Batum grabbed only 2 rebounds in the fourth quarter, leaving him 2 short of a triple-double. I appreciate his restraint in not mindlessly chasing an arbitrary stastical feat, but, uh, that’s kind of what you’re supposed to do. Especially if your team is losing. You crash the glass every time. No one’s gonna call…
