https://youtu.be/VGIirbyN_Oc When one thinks of “signature moves”, a few things come to mind. Kareem’s skyhook, obviously. Kobe’s fadeaway. Dirk’s fadeaway. MJ’s tongue flapping everywhere and hitting dudes in the face. Giannis’ eurostep. Kosta Koufos’ push-shot-floater thing. Note that last one. Yeah, I think Richaun Holmes must have borrowed Koufos’ signature move after getting a few…

Richaun Holmes 25 Points Full Highlights (3/25/2021)
https://youtu.be/Mizkm8Dks5U Richaun Holmes currently leads the entire NBA in field goal percentage, at 65%. Okay, that statement needs to be qualified a little bit. Holmes leads all eligible players in field goal percentage. I don’t know what the prerequisites are for qualifying for the season leaderboards, but Holmes meets them. Patrick McCaw, who is shooting…

https://youtu.be/yQEz0vHWOXY I have always been on the Richaun Holmes hype train. ALWAYS. Don’t believe me? Here’s a selection of quotes about Holmes from yours truly, arranged in chronological order: “Anyone else getting a serious Giannis Antetokounmpo vibe from this dude named Richaun Holmes?” “Fact: Richaun Holmes provides 50% of the funness that Joel Embiid did…

Richaun Holmes, sitting at the too-small desk in his hotel room, looked at the containers of hotel-provided food with distaste. He had been expecting something like the high-end room service that he often ordered for himself on road trips: steaks, double-decker cheeseburgers, sushi made out of exotic sea life. What he was looking at was…

Faintly, at the end of this video as Richaun Holmes was shooting free throws, I could hear “MVP” chants. It would be easy to dismiss the chants as ironic encouragement from a rowdy section of the stands for a player who had just missed their first free throw and was hoping to hit the second,…

If Dewayne Dedmon can demand a trade for being so bad that he can’t even get in the rotation for the Kings, I don’t see why Richaun Holmes can’t demand a trade for being on a team so bad that it has Dewayne Dedmon on it. It might be considered bad form for the best…

16 points in the first half for Richaun Holmes, 2 in the second half. I’ve spent a lot of time talking this guy up as the best player on the Kings, all things considered (and I will stand by that assertion until the day comes when he is no longer on the Kings and is…

I am really trying hard to find some justification for not straight-up anointing Richaun Holmes as the Kings best player right now. I’m seriously about to anoint him right here, right now, as the Kings best player, and unless someone comes in with some evidence that he’s not, it’s happening. Advanced stats notoriously love low-volume…

The mere act of creating this video has leadened my soul with disappointment. Being forced to write a description for it burdens my psyche with anhedonic gloom. The Richaun Holmes – De’Aaron Fox connection was so hyped in my mind. The entirety of my last video description for Holmes was spent hyping up the possibilities…

Who else is hella hyped to watch Richaun Holmes and De’Aaron Fox play together? Raise your hand if you’re hyped. Even though you’re probably sitting in your room by yourself with nobody around to see you do it, I want you to raise your hand. I want everybody watching this video to raise their hands…
