Time for a brain exercise. I’m going to throw out five random NBA players and you tell me if it’s a championship-contending lineup for years to come, bordering on dynasty-esque: Damian Lillard. Brandon Roy. Nic Batum. LaMarcus Aldridge. Greg Oden. Oh, I’m sorry Blazers fans! Stop crying! I didn’t mean it! I had no idea…

Michael Beasley 24 Points Full Highlights (3/8/2013)
The Phoenix Suns are in a bad place right now. A place with no light, only the gnawing sounds of tortured souls and the eyeless face of a vengeful god. A place where hope is a lost concept, and despair permeates the air. A place of unscalable walls and byzantine corridors. A place where they…
Read MoreEric Maynor 20 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (3/8/2013)
All aboard the Eric Maynor hype train! I’m your conductor, DownToBuck. Choo Choo! We might not be as fast or as fancy as the Lillard hype train, but we’re a lot less crowded! Plenty of room to spread your legs. And you guys had better get on quick before it is derailed by Terry Stotts’…
Read MoreDerek Fisher 13 Points Full Highlights (3/8/2013)
I thought Derek Fisher retired? He started off the season with the Mavericks and then retired. That’s what happened. Right? I’m just saying that because he definitely just played a game with the Thunder. After his retirement. Is there a new definition of retired that I don’t know about? Or maybe it’s like the first…
Read MoreJohn Wall 19 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/6/2013)
This is probably the most improbable game of John Wall’s career. He made seven field goals, but all of them were jumpers. Six of them were long two-pointers. His strength is using his quickness to get to the rack, not pulling up from 16 feet to take a jumper with his broken form, as evidenced…
Read MoreEric Maynor 13 Points/4 Assists Full Highlights (3/6/2013)
Remember when Thunder fans thought that Maynor was going to be a key contributor to their championship squad? Those were the days. Then he got injured, and Reggie Jackson came along, and all of a sudden he wasn’t playing at all. But now he’s been traded to the Trailblazers, who desperately need a competent back-up…
Read MorePatrick Patterson 15 Points/4 Assists Full Highlights (3/6/2013)
Note to Kings announcers: stop calling Patrick Patterson “P-pat”. Why would you call him that, when his nickname is obviously “Pat-Pat”? You HAVE to take advantage of the fact that the first syllable of both of his names is the same. Morons. Anyway, I think Rockets fans were kind of disappointed that they got rid…
Read MoreAnthony Tolliver 21 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2013)
I really shouldn’t have made this video. Last time I tried to make Anthony Tolliver highlights, only about 120 of you watched them. That’s like the lowest for any of my videos. Except for maybe Quincy Pondexter. Anyway, you guys were trying to send me a message, and that message was “we hate Anthony Tolliver…
Read MoreMarc Gasol 23 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2013)
So when did Marc Gasol become a better player than his brother Pau? It was probably around the time when D’Antoni tried to turn Pau into a three-point specialist and Dwight Howard started stealing all his rebounds while Marc turned into a master of turnaround J’s. Marc also has complete use of both of his…
Read MoreAndre Miller 16 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (3/5/2013)
Andre Miller is the best in the league, other than maybe Chris Paul, at throwing lobs for alley-oop slammy whammies. It helps to have athletic freaks like McGee and Faried on your team, but he can throw oops to pretty much anyone who can dunk. It’s just one side of his multi-faceted game. Other sides…
