Moses Brown 21 Points/23 Rebounds Full Highlights (3/27/2021)

https://youtu.be/htMR24_E_cU Moses Brown’s 23 rebounds is the most any Thunder player has grabbed. Ever. “Buh buh buh BUT DEE TEE BEE” you wail from your recliner, the vinyl of which has fused permanently with your skin making you a disgusting creature that is half-man and half-furniture. “What about all the Seattle Super S…S…Sonics players who…

Moses Brown 19 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (3/24/2021)

https://youtu.be/QkzQrhyB7IE I am of the opinion that ANY player who is 7’2″ and has ANY mobility at all can be molded into a useful NBA player. The old axiom “height can’t be taught” applies here, and it especially applies to somebody who stands at a few inches above seven feet. That’s the kind of height…

Ty Jerome 18 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (3/18/2021)

https://youtu.be/8XBPV7ByfOI Ty Jerome didn’t have a very impressive rookie season. In fact, his rookie season was pretty bad. In 31 games for the Suns, he shot 34% from the field. I know that field goal percentage is a very basic way of ascertaining the quality of play of a particular player, but you have to…

Moses Brown 20 Points/5 Blocks Full Highlights (3/16/2021)

https://youtu.be/6mxrKWIDzbU The “Twin Towers” concept doesn’t hold much currency in today’s NBA because of the ineffectiveness of having two non-shooting bigs on the court at the same time. However, the Thunder seem to have accidentally stumbled into a new duo of young bigs who are not only entirely deserving of the “twin towers” moniker due…

Aleksej Pokusevski 23 Points Full Highlights (3/14/2021)

https://youtu.be/hgEieKzNRDc From my consumption of “behind the scenes” NBA content, I have gleaned that most NBA players have their diet at least partially planned out for them by the nutritionists that their team employs. I have also gleaned that most teams employ chefs to make delicious meals that also meet the dietary needs of their…

Aleksej Pokusevski 14 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2021)

https://youtu.be/fZwhLTZQ8Bg A lot of young big men come into the league raw. Rawness is honestly expected when so few players stick around for four years of college. When these guys show up to the league as a jittery bundle of potential and fail to make an immediate impact, most fans will cut them some slack….

Darius Bazley 22 Points Full Highlights (2/27/2021)

https://youtu.be/ibxjAJj6qtA While desperately sifting through basketball-reference’s treasure trove of stats, searching for any scrap of statistical insight that I could use as a seed to germinate a full-length video description, I found out this marginally interesting fact about Darius Bazley: He is 21st in the league in total rebounds this season. He’s got two more…

Theo Maledon 13 Points/12 Assists Full Highlights (2/26/2021)

https://youtu.be/NNHMmRur-Jo For reference: it took Tony Parker 84 games before he had a 12-assist game. Theo Maledon? Only 28. John Stockton? 16. You know, I thought I was being really clever there with Stockton. I know he had a bit of a slow start to his career, so my plan was to impress everybody with…

Justin Jackson 22 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (2/14/2021)

https://youtu.be/RNg-9XUo2EU I guess the secret to unlocking Justin Jackson’s potential was just to have somebody ahead of him in the rotation get injured so that he could get more minutes and more touches. In this case, that “somebody” is Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and it’s more than just Justin Jackson who’s benefiting: Kenrich Williams is also playing…

Justin Jackson 20 Points Full Highlights (2/12/2021)

https://youtu.be/LhrGzl-EvBQ I am currently occupying the “Semi-Retirement Conundrum Zone”, where I am not retired enough to not make this video of Justin Jackson scoring 20, but simultaneously retired enough to not be required write a description for it. It’s a very small zone. Usually, if I make a vid these days, it deserves a description….
