Take a look at Scott Skiles’ reaction to an Aaron Gordon dunk at around the 0:28 mark. First off, his slight smile and hand clapping makes me confused. I thought he hated Gordon? Is this a smokescreen to catch Gordon off guard? Whatever. That aspect of the clip can be analyzed at a later date….

Dewayne Dedmon Career High 18 Points Full Highlights (3/26/2016)
This video is everything I hoped it would be and more. Why do I say that? Because there was one basket made outside of the paint! I was expecting a bevy of cheap layups and dunks, but no: Dewayne Dedmon managed to step outside to about the free throw line and nail a jumper, defying…

If you ever want some extra proof that Hassan Whiteside isn’t the greatest defender, just watch this vid. Holy DAMN. Andrew Nicholson (to repeat: ANDREW NICHOLSON) absolutely abused him repeatedly. REPEATEDLY. MORE THAN ONCE. How many times can you do a pump fake and have it still work? Apparently, as many times as you want,…

I don’t know why the Orlando Magic aren’t better. They had all the pieces to be at least an 8th-seed type of team, and they can’t even manage that. It’s been this way for years, since a little after Dwight left; a core of young talent seemingly ready to bust out, only to miss the…
Read MoreAaron Gordon 16 Points Full Highlights (3/15/2016)
Why don’t people use the nickname “Air Gordon” for Aaron Gordon? I just thought it up all by myself, and from what I can tell, it’s basically the perfect nickname. Because his name is Gordon and he gets up in the air to do sweet dunks. Is it because everybody’s afraid of getting sued by…
Read MoreJason Smith 25 Points Full Highlights (3/15/2016)
Imagine my surprise and delight when it turns out that erstwhile highlight-god dorell15 made highlights of when Jason Smith scored his career high 26 points back in 2012! You don’t even have to imagine, I’ll just tell you: I was surprised and delighted TO THE MAX. Those highlights and these highlights look very similar, except…
Read MoreEvan Fournier 30 Points Full Highlights (3/15/2016)
Attention to those dudes who compile all the “fights” that occur in the NBA only for the videos to get taken down because the NBA doesn’t want people to see that sometimes players have emotions: we’ve got a new dustup to add to your compilations! Evan Fournier versus Nikola Jokic. France versus Serbia. White versus…

[PSA: AARON GORDON DOES NOT DUNK IN THIS VIDEO] [BONUS PSA #2: AARON GORDON HITS A BUNCH OF JUMPERS IN THIS VIDEO] This is what I remember from Summer League. Endless Aaron Gordon jumpers. With Vucevic and Payton both out this game, somebody needed to take the shots, and who better than the guy with…
Read MoreAaron Gordon 20 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (3/11/2016)
If you want some extra enjoyment while consuming this video, try watching Scott Skiles reactions from the bench during Aaron Gordon’s skillful dunks. Skiles’ face is kind of indistinct, but it clearly shows the painful dichotomy that is tearing him apart: one one side, he hates Aaron Gordon like he hates all young players, and…
Read MoreAaron Gordon 20 Points/4 Dunks Full Highlights (3/7/2016)
Aaron Gordon’s dunks are great. Really great. I like them a lot, and they are befitting of a dunk contest winner, which he is. In-game dunks as a rule are not as spectacular as those of the dunk contest variety, but he manages to find some pizzazz for a lot of them. Aaron dunked it…
