This is the year, THIS IS THE YEAR (note the capital letters for emphasis) that Bryn Forbes is basically Stephen Curry 0.6 and proves it by slowly working his way up the Spurs’ pecking order until he’s the second option ahead of DeMar DeRozan (who is not any version of Stephen Curry but is actually…

Davis Bertans All 145 Three-Pointers Full Highlights (2018-19 Season Three-ilation)
Waiting in his living room for his guest to arrive, Davis Bertans checked all his equipment with anticipation. Each component had been tested recently, but he wanted the reassurance that everything would go as planned. Plugging in his phone to the USB-C connector on the side, all the status codes came back normal. The doorbell…
Read MoreMarco Belinelli All 147 Three-Pointers Full Highlights (2018-19 Season Three-ilation)
Journal Entry 9/1/2019: “Today I took up my position in Marco’s neighborhood. As fortune would have it, there is a foreclosed home directly across from his, allowing me easy surveillance at all hours of the day as long as I stay by the front windows. The utilities are disconnected, but I should be able to…
Read MoreBryn Forbes 19 Points Full Highlights (4/27/2019)
I totally understand if Spurs fans don’t want to watch this video. Some things have happened in the past 24 hours that make it so that maybe watching highlight videos of Spurs players is not what they want to do. That’s fine. This vid of Bryn Forbes scoring 19 points will be here whenever they…
Read MoreRudy Gay 21 Points Full Highlights (4/27/2019)
Had the Spurs won (spoiler alert: they didn’t), Rudy Gay would’ve been the hero of this game. He did a bunch of things, not just this game, but in the whole series, that would’ve elevated him to temporary Duncan status in the hearts of Spurs fans. Heroic deed one: he scored 9 straight points to…
Read MoreRudy Gay 19 Points Full Highlights (4/25/2019)
It’s time for a confession: while watching this game live, if Rudy Gay was in the game, I was spending that entire time quoting parts from that YouTube video where the Toronto fan is freaking out about Gay hitting a game winner. I was doing it all, and in the same Toronto accent. Yelling “No,…
Read MoreJakob Poeltl 12 Points/4 Assists Full Highlights (4/23/2019)
Just because Jakob Poeltl is a starter, doesn’t mean he should be barred from playing in garbage time. The Nuggets’ lead ballooned to about 30 points near the start of the fourth quarter, rendering that last period meaningless. Normally, that’s when players like Poeltl shine; they can do stuff that maybe they wouldn’t do otherwise,…
Read MoreDerrick White Career High 36 Points Full Highlights (4/18/2019)
Derrick White opened his eyes slowly. When he saw where he was, or, more specifically, that he wasn’t in the locker room anymore, he shut them again. Maybe if kept his eyes closed, whatever hallucination he had just experienced would dissipate and he could open them again to find himself back with his jubilant teammates,…
Read MoreDerrick White 17 Points Full Highlights (4/16/2019)
The Spurs need to do something about their “Derrick White is our best player” problem. I’m not complaining, because I think White is great and it’s cool to see him be the best player on the team despite not having any real experience to speak of, but I can’t imagine it’s a recipe for playoff…
Read MoreDerrick White 16 Points/5 Assists/1 Dunk Full Highlights (4/13/2019)
There will come a time, I hope, when the Spurs aren’t good anymore. It may not be in my lifetime, but it will come. How many years in a row have they made the playoffs now? Way too many, and I bet for that whole time there were people like me just waiting for them…
