Miles Plumlee Career High 18 Points/15 Rebounds/3 Blocks Full Highlights (10/30/2013)

Warning: If you would prefer not to have your mind blown into the seventh spatial dimension, please discontinue reading this description immediately. In his first game with the Suns, Miles Plumlee scored more points (18) than he scored in his entire tenure with the Pacers (16). Holy dumb Christ. I have no idea if this…

Spencer Hawes 24 Points Full Highlights (10/30/2013)

Exultant in victory, Spencer Hawes showered the shower of a champion. He didn’t really feel like talking to any media right now. They would just ask him about “sustained success” and “teamwork”. He could easily spend thirty minutes or an hour just standing here, relishing his team’s win over last years champions, not thinking about…

Alec Burks 24 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (10/30/2013)

Despair no more Jazz fans! You have gotten your wish; your team is tanking. The front office might not admit it, they might claim they are trying to win every game. But while they may be trying to win, any team that willingly acquires Andris Biedrins is not planning a victory parade any time soon….

Anthony Davis 20 Points/12 Rebounds Full Highlights (10/30/2013)

There seems to be a consensus among internet commentators that this is the year where Anthony Davis totally busts out and ascends to stardom. What makes them think this? His preseason performances. Now think about this: every day you cross paths with tons of people. Friends, family, coworkers, service industry peons. They may seem normal…

DeAndre Jordan 17 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (10/29/2013)

Descending quickly and silently through the Earth’s atmosphere, their craft landed stealthily in the darkness. It hardly mattered how stealthy there were, though, as the ship’s anti-humanoid cloaking device masked it entirely from the inhabitants of the planet. The first, albeit easiest, phase of their project was a success. “Now we just need to find…

Jordan Farmar 16 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (10/29/2013)

I hate feeling this way. I really do. But inverity and concealment are not part of DownToBuck’s game. I must be totally honest with myself, and with you, the loyal viewership. I might actually like the Lakers this year. I know, I know. It’s horrible. But if they keep playing the way they did last…

Xavier Henry Career High 22 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2013)

Xavier Henry was the twelfth pick in the 2010 NBA draft. He has never averaged more than five points a game, or shot better than 41% from the field. There’s a word for those players. Burst? Blust? It’s something like that. But it’s a new season, and the X-Man is in a new situation, so…

Lance Stephenson 19 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (10/29/2013)

A new NBA season. The landscape of the league has shifted so. Stars and scrubs alike shuffle themselves into new, heretofore unseen arrangements. The annual influx of starry-eyed and stone-handed rookies who yearn to prove. Yet as much as some things have changed, others stay the same. Like the Pacers. You know, that cool upstart…

Andrew Nicholson 18 Points Full Highlights (10/29/2013)

The burning sand had blistered the shambling man’s feet into mangled caricatures. The pervasive winds had tattered his clothes to mere shreds. Yet he continued his journey. The vast, barren plains of the desert had nearly wiped every sane thought from his mind. The unrelenting sun had tormented his eyes for months, making hazy the…
