P.J. Tucker 20 Points Full Highlights (1/16/2019)

People think that the highlight videos I make are the star of the show and everything else is an afterthought, but here’s the truth: the stuff I make is an overarching work that comprises three equal parts. The video itself, the description, and the thumbnail. All three of those things are of equal importance to…

P.J. Tucker 21 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (1/7/2019)

The Rockets commentators could not stop bringing up the fact that P.J. “Peej” Tucker was, prior to this game, in a three-point shooting slump so deep it made the Mariana Trench look like a bike track through packed dirt, so I enlisted the help of the invaluable basketball-reference website to help me fact-check these claims….

P.J. Tucker 19 Points Full Highlights (10/17/2018)

Remember last year, when P.J. Tucker started the season off with a 20-point game and then didn’t reach that total again until the playoffs? No, you don’t, because that’s not the kind of thing that normal people remember if they want to live a life other than “Highlights Hermit”. But I remember, I remember that…

P.J. Tucker 22 Points Full Highlights (5/16/2018)

While James “Travel On Every Stepback” Harden and Chris “Conference Finals Virgin” Paul were out there bricking everything from three (they went a combined 4-of-19), P.J. Tucker stepped in to clean up their mess with a cool 5-of-6 from downtown and 22 points. In fact, he only made one fewer shot (8) than Harden (9)…

P.J. Tucker 19 Points Full Highlights (5/8/2018)

P.J. Tucker scored 20 points in his debut with the Rockets, way back in the arcane era of time known as “October”. My video commemorating the performance has since been deleted, but my claim made in the description that even Ivan Chiriaev could score 10 points per game in Mike D’Antoni’s offensive system remains true….

P.J. Tucker 16 Points Full Highlights (4/7/2018)

I was operating under the assumption that P.J. Tucker had upped his scoring output recently, given that he just scored sixteen points last night, and I have a memory of making an eighteen-point highlight video for him within the past week or so. For Tucker, point totals in the double digits are a rare occasion…

P.J. Tucker 18 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (3/30/2018)

P.J. Tucker opened the season with a twenty-point outburst that doubtless had Rockets fans salivating at his scoring potential. Please humor me while I set up a strawman of a clueless Rockets fanbase and then tear it down to make myself feel better. These stupid Rockets fans saw Tucker score twenty and they probably were…

P.J. Tucker 20 Points Rockets Debut Full Highlights (10/17/2017)

Yet more evidence that Mike D’Antoni is a singularly offense-minded savant. We didn’t really need more evidence of that fact, but here it is anyway, ready to be added to the now towering pile: known non-scorer P.J. Tucker scored 20 points in his first game in D’Antoni’s system. Here’s a stat for you, because I…

P.J. Tucker 21 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2016)

Are Suns fans tired of P.J. Tucker yet? He’s old and he doesn’t score points, both of which are annoying traits, but he’s also no longer the starter and he must have some value as a defensive specialist. He’s been a consistent part of the Suns’ losing efforts for the past few years, but he…

P.J. Tucker Career High 24 Points Full Highlights (4/7/2016)

Wow, I didn’t realize how bad P.J. Tucker is at scoring (cue Suns fans crying into their whiskey). At 8.8 per 36, he’s worse at putting the ball in the hole than basically (correction: literally) everybody who gets big minutes. He’s worse than Justise Winslow. He’s not worse than Tayshaun Prince, since no rotation player…
