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,…

Richaun Holmes 22 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (12/31/2019)
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…
Read MoreNemanja Bjelica 27 Points Full Highlights (12/29/2019)
DTB’S OFFICIAL* FUN** FACT*** OF THE DAY****: this is the first 20-point game for Nemanja Bjelica this season. He had a 30-point game, and a 19-point game, but no games in the 20-29 range. Isn’t that fun? If you don’t think that fact was fun, don’t blame me, check the disclaimers at the bottom of…
Read MoreBogdan Bogdanovic 22 Points Full Highlights (12/28/2019)
Another game, another disappointing loss for the Kings, this time against the similarly-hapless Suns. If the result had been switched, I’d be saying “Another game, another disappointing loss for the Suns”, but one of these teams had to win (so claims the NBA, who apparently don’t believe in ties), and thus subvert expectations. If there…
Read MoreRichaun Holmes 20 Points/18 Rebounds Full Highlights (12/26/2019)
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…

Thanks to the power of YouTube, I can portray NBA players as having had a good game when the truth may be totally different. That’s the problem with highlights, which is why I encourage everyone to not ever watch my videos and instead watch the games. I also encourage people not to read these descriptions…
Read MoreMarvin Bagley 18 Points Full Highlights (12/26/2019)
Right now, the idea for the Kings with regards to Marvin Bagley is for him to get the ball, and for him to try and score that ball. The thinking, presumably, is that if Bagley is going to have any great value in the NBA, it’s going to be for his scoring. So why not…

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…
Read MoreJustin James 14 Points/1 Buzzer-Beater Full Highlights (12/20/2019)
This Justin James highlight package might contain the highest levels of balls-to-the-wall, end-to-end excitement ever displayed in a 14-point performance. It’s got it all, my friends: -Three-Pointers -Buzzer-beating three-pointers -Putback dunks -And-ones (sadly without the “one”, but still awesome) James collected some other miscellaneous stats (assists, blocks, what have you) that aren’t shown in this…
