Toney “Baloney” Douglas is just the next in a succession of point guards that the Pelicans are trying out for the backup spot. And boy, is it an ugly list: -Russ Smith (literally who?) -Austin Rivers (had to be rescued by his dad because the Celtics were going to send him to the D-League) -Jimmer…

Jason Smith 25 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2015)
In a previous description I stated that Andrea Bargnani was better than Jason Smith. I would like to issue a retraction for that little nugget of misguided garbage. This Jason Smith dude just put together a game that would give prime Raptors Bargnani a hardon if Bargnani hadn’t already been made impotent by the spermicidal…
Read MoreHassan Whiteside 17 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2015)
Some people have been asking, if Hassan Whiteside keeps up this level of play until his next contract, will he get the max? in DownToBuck’s not-humble-at-all opinion, this is a magnificently stupid question. These people are not thinking big enough. You could ask, “if Hassan Whiteside plays like this for the next few years, will…

“Our power is growing. I can feel it,” said Luke Babbitt, seemingly talking to an empty locker room. “It is as I told you. The longer I get, the better you shoot,” replied Luke’s hair. “Monty, the vile minutes-reducer, will pay dearly for his insolence. When you were benched, I could feel the anger glowing…

Cavaliers’ record without Timofey Mozgov: 19-17. With Mozgov: 14-4. The defense rests, your honor. Cleveland may or may not have overpaid (alright let’s face it they drastically overpaid) for Mozgod’s services, but you cannot argue with results. He has filled a huge bear-shaped hole in the Cavaliers’ roster, with his defense and bigness. Unfortunately, we’ve…
Read MoreJ.J. Barea 22 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2015)
JJ Barea stood on the sandy beach, his eyes closed, facing the direction of the reflected moon on the shimmering water. The darkening twilight and ocean mist alike shrouded him in the mystique of his native land, Puerto Rico. He took a deep breath of the breeze, and relished its salty tang. This was his…
Read MoreNick Collison 15 Points Full Highlights (2/11/2015)
I don’t feel like doing the research, but it seems like Nick Collison must be one of the longest tenured players to never average double figures in any stat over a season. I know, I know, his impact is made in ways that don’t show up in the box score, yada yada, he’s always making…
