Steven Adams 20 Points Full Highlights (11/21/2018)

I am having a lot of watching the Warriors lose some games without Stephen Curry. I almost hate to admit it, because it makes me seem more like your average NBA pleb fan who only cares about storylines rather than the objective analytically-minded savant that I actually am, but whatever. Mostly, I just like seeing…

Dennis Schröder 32 Points Full Highlights (11/21/2018)

Walking the back halls of Oracle Arena, Dennis Schröder cleared his head before the game. It was always beneficial for his state of mind if he took some time away from his teammates and coaches. Underneath his jersey, he could feel the rough brown fabric of the Magic Lederhosen against his skin, and he took…

Hamidou Diallo 18 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2018)

Just two days after Danny Green notched a perfect 7-for-7 shooting performance, rookie sensation (note: the term “sensation” is used loosely and may not refer to anything sensational) Hamidou “Going Ham” Diallo adds his name to that illustrious list with his own 7-of-7 shooting session. But Green took the easy path to this accomplishment by…

Steven Adams 26 Points Full Highlights (11/17/2018)

Steven Adams has never struck me as a guy you give the ball to and say “hey, go get us a bucket”. That’s not his game. His game is receiving lobs from Russell Westbrook. Well, I’m not seeing Westbrook around anymore, so I guess that means Adams’ true scoring potential has been unleashed? Maybe I…

Steven Adams 20 Points Full Highlights (11/10/2018)

I’m just going to put it out there: Steven Adams, if he so pleased, could very easily crush my “kiwis”. He could effortlessly crush my kiwis almost as an afterthought. My kiwis would be reduced to a pulpy, fleshy, pulverized mass. This idea has gripped me for some time and I don’t know how to…

Terrance Ferguson 14 Points Full Highlights (11/8/2018)

Ignore Marv Albert when he says that this is a career-high for Terrance Ferguson. He’s old and isn’t losing it, he’s lost it for a long time now. This is definitely not a career-high for Ferguson. Everyone remembers when he dominated the Lakers on national TV by scoring 24 points including some mammoth hammers. Everyone…

Dennis Schröder 28 Points Full Highlights (11/7/2018)

No Russell Westbrook, no problem. Dennis Schröder is a reasonable approximation, the only difference is that he’s not a stat-padder. Well, one of two differences. The other difference is that he’s not really interested in passing the ball (as if Westbrook would be if he didn’t have to do it to get triple-doubles). Schröder’s assist…

Dennis Schröder 22 Points Full Highlights (11/5/2018)

“Yo Dennis, what are those ugly things you’re putting on?” Russell Westbrook ribbed in the locker room before the game. “Suspenders made out of paper bags?” Dennis Schröder looked down at his outfit, then looked back up at his teammate, affixing him with a cold stare. Silently, he beseeched the spirits of German basketball players…

Jerami Grant Career High 22 Points Full Highlights (11/2/2018)

I just want to shout out the Wizards commentator (I forget his name) who managed to acknowledge Jerami Grant’s career-high (he didn’t mention that part) 22 points while being overcome with smothering melancholy. That takes inner power. Normally he just sits in silence when things are going really wrong, as they have been for the…

Dennis Schröder 21 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (11/1/2018)

Dënniß ßchrööder isn’t having the best of starts to his Thunder tenure. Maybe it’s because he’s so used to the empty Hawks arena, or he’s possibly misplaced his Magic Lederhosen, but his already questionable shooting is way down this season. I would try to attribute this to the “Westbrook Effect” (which is something I made…
