This is how a highlight video should be. No free throws. No assists. No lame “hustle” plays. No actions performed by other players. Just a straight-up no-frills bucket fest from one of the more underrecognized bucket-getters in the league, Mr. Terrence Ross. The “no free throws” thing is especially great for me. I hate free…

Mo Bamba 15 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (2/26/2020)
Did anybody else besides me expect Mo Bamba to be a little bit…better? There was so much hype for him going into that draft last season. There was even a popular song based on him (a song which I have not yet heard, or if I have heard it I didn’t realize what I was…
Read MoreTerrence Ross 21 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2020)
Terrence Ross didn’t score in this game until the 4:40 mark of the third quarter. He then concluded his scoring with a three-pointer at exactly 7:23 in the fourth. By utilizing my extremely minimal skills in the arcane mathematical/numerological arts, that comes out to nine minutes and seventeen seconds of game time wherein T-Ross dropped…

Markelle Fultz was on his way what possibly would have been the third 20-point, 10-assist game of his career, but his evening was cut short when he went up for a block and, after coming down from his flight, immediately had a debilitating calf cramp. I’ve mentioned before that I’m “Mr. Cramps” at the park….
Read MoreMarkelle Fultz 22 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (2/12/2020)
Philly fans are getting assaulted from all sides. Among the assaults that are currently being perpetrated against them: -Markelle Fultz showing huge amounts of development in Orlando after the Sixers traded him for basically nothing (where’s Jonathon Simmons now, anyway?). Not only that, but the Magic are going to make the PLAYOFFS on the back…
Read MoreTerrence Ross 21 Points Full Highlights (2/10/2020)
Is Terrence Ross currently mired in what NBA insiders accurately call the “Post-Contract Slump of Badness” (PCSOB)? Last year was a contract year for Ross, so naturally he played as well as he was physically able to play. Now he’s, as the kids say, “got the bag” in the form of a four-year contract which…
Read MoreMarkelle Fultz 13 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (2/10/2020)
I am straight-up gunning for the eyeballs of Markelle Fultz fans right now and I’m not ashamed to admit it. All these middling performances from Fultz where he barely drags himself into double-digit scoring totals? I don’t care how middling they are. I’m making the damn video no matter what. There’s an under-served market out…

I think there should always be the option of revoking a nickname that has been assigned to a player when that player no longer lives up to the nickname. This is especially true in the case of role-players who aren’t even that old when their decline starts. For example, you would never take away MJ’s…

I’m not gonna lie, I was a little bit disappointed when the trade deadline came and went without D.J. Augustin’s name popping up in any trade announcements. In fact, his name didn’t even come up in trade TALKS, much less finalized trades. If GM’s were discussing him, they didn’t leak it. This is disappointing to…

Okay, DTB just came back from snacktime and is ready to articulate his thoughts on second-year Magic center Mo Bamba. Before I talk about him, though, I just want to interject for a moment that nacho cheese flavor Doritos are pretty tasty. However, there are two varieties of Doritos that need to return to store…
