Anyone who watched Seth Curry in Dallas knew that the Trailblazers would be able to withstand the injury to C.J. McCollum. Curry is basically the same kind of player, except his brother is way better (Errick McCollum did score 82 in a game in China, but that hardly compares to winning multiple MVPs and rings…

Jusuf Nurkic 32 Points/5 Assists/4 Blocks/1 Injury Full Highlights (3/25/2019)
IMPORTANT NOTE: even though the title says “1 Injury”, the actual footage of the injury is not included in this video, so you can watch this video at work without your boss wondering why you’re watching gore stuff. You can also watch this video if you (like I should’ve been doing) are purposefully trying to…
Read MoreAl-Farouq Aminu 22 Points Full Highlights (3/23/2019)
I previously came up with a term for a concept that had long gone termless, and that term applies very well to Al-Farouq Aminu’s performance against the Pistons. The term is “blibbum”, and it’s a neologism for a clutch shot that isn’t a game-winner. Now, you might say, “why create a whole new word to…
Read MoreSeth Curry 20 Points Full Highlights (3/20/2019)
Seth Curry has proven to be a good enough shooter, first in his stints with Sacramento and Dallas, and now during his stint with the Blazers, that I’m sort of curious how he would function as maybe the number two option in an offense. In fact, I’m thinking that a C.J. McCollum type role, where…
Read MoreJusuf Nurkic 24 Points Full Highlights (3/16/2019)
It’s been over three months since Jusuf Nurkic made a three. I should’ve known better to assume he’d be the next Brook Lopez with him shooting tons of them per game. I blame the preseason for this. And Nurkic. If he knows he’s not going to keep shooting them in the regular season when the…
Read MoreEnes Kanter 17 Points Full Highlights (3/15/2019)
Eleven games this year, sixteen last year, nineteen the year before that. That’s how many times Enes Kanter has scored more than seventeen. When you look at his entire body of work as an NBA player, seventeen points in a game is nothing. Just absolutely nothing. So why did I make this highlight video? Two…
Read MoreSeth Curry 22 Points Full Highlights (3/9/2019)
For those of you who don’t know, I spent literally hours of every day writing down nickname ideas for NBA players in this notebook I have. The picture you have in your mind of a skinny dude staring at his desk and occasionally writing something furiously in a notebook and then just as furiously scribbling…
Read MoreMaurice Harkless 20 Points/5 Dunks Full Highlights (3/5/2019)
Moe Harkless was uncharacteristically aggressive in this game. He was aggressive to the point where the aggression could not have solely come from within him; we know with certainty that he doesn’t have that extra switch inside him that would allow him to be so scoring-focused for an entire game. I’m thinking either Terry Stotts,…
Read MoreJusuf Nurkic 26 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (3/3/2019)
Cody Zeller is lucky that Jusuf Nurkic was in a good mood when the former elbowed the latter in the jaw/face area while boxing out for a rebound. If the two of them had any amount of animosity between them, perhaps as a result of some trash talk earlier in the game, Zeller would have…
Read MoreRodney Hood 27 Points Full Highlights (3/3/2019)
Rodney Hood scored all 27 of his points in the final fourteen and a half minutes of this game. He was basically scoring two points per minute for the entire time he was out there. That’s pretty nuts. I’m sure Stotts put him out there near the end of the third quarter just to see…
