Raptors fans love infesting every corner of the internet with their rabid homerism. It’s just what they do. US government efforts to create a separate “Canadanet” which would quarantine all Canadians onto their own private internet have thus far proven unsuccessful, sadly. I don’t know for sure really, but I assume they’ve been at least…

Norman Powell 19 Points Full Highlights (10/30/2019)
The Raptors commentators were making some veiled (okay, not-so-veiled) references to Norman Powell’s scoring woes so far this season, so I decided to check out the trusty basketball-reference (without the services of which I would just be guessing at stats) to see exactly how Powell has been performing this season. Let nobody say that DownToBuck…
Read MoreOG Anunoby 17 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (10/26/2019)
Do not be fooled by the somewhat paltry point total (just in general, for OG Anunoby this is actually rather good) of this highlight video, because this is one of the sickest displays of the year so far. Yeah, we’re only a few games in, but I bet by the time we get half way…
Read MoreFred VanVleet Career High 34 Points/7 Assists/1 Injury/1 Return Full Highlights (10/22/2019)
After having to reject two stunningly beautiful women in the span of two weeks, I was starting to feel like something was amiss. To have one very attractive woman show interest in me, sure, I could pass that off as a fluke. But two in such a short period of time? That’s going beyond fluke…
Read MoreDanny Green All 198 Three-Pointers Full Highlights (2018-19 Season Three-ilation)
No one from last year’s championship-parade-having Raptors has come out and said “The East still runs through Toronto”, but there can be no doubt that their chances are significantly reduced compared to last season. It’s not going to be the embarrassing fall from grace that the Cavaliers experienced and that Tristan Thompson didn’t want to…
Read MorePascal Siakam 26 Points/1 Championship Full Highlights (6/13/2019)
My game six viewing experience was interesting to say the least. Most of the time I’m a solitary basketball watcher. I don’t go to bars or restaurants to watch the games because those places are loud and the TV’s are usually too far away. The few times I’ve been in one against my will while…
Read MoreFred VanVleet 22 Points/1 Championship Full Highlights (6/13/2019)
I don’t know if there’s ever been a player who, in the course of one playoff run, went from team scapegoat and complete negative to team hero and fanbase darling. Through the first two series, and the first three games of the third, VanVleet was playing like an absolute turnip. Every time Nick Nurse subbed…

There are many talking points that I could bring up in this description. Among them: -Kevin Durant’s Achilles injury -Raptors fans’ response to Kevin Durant’s Achilles injury -Serge Ibaka’s role in the play where Kevin Durant injured his Achilles -The Warriors now having an outside chance to win this series -The fact that Warriors fans…

Read MorePascal Siakam 19 Points Full Highlights (6/7/2019)
I’m upset with Pascal Siakam right now because he’s forcing me to occupy my own time (which is a precious commodity that I cannot acquire more of) making marginal-quality highlight videos for him. When he’s scoring in the mid-twenties and above, I don’t mind the task, because the end result is a compelling highlight video…
