April 2015 – DownToBuck

Mike Dunleavy 20 Points/1 Tackle Received Full Highlights (4/30/2015)

Why did the Bucks get rid of Larry Sanders again? He would have been perfect for this series, as he already has a proven track record of punching Mike Dunleavy in the face. As it stands, the Bucks season comes to a close in about the worst way possible, getting smashed at home by 55…

Boris Diaw 17 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (4/30/2015)

I’m getting chills over here thinking about how awesome Diaw’s offensive game would be if he wasn’t so fat. It’s already pretty awesome as long as he’s engaged. Imagine him running around with thirty fewer pounds on his tubby little belly. Blake Griffin would get more exposed than he already has been. It’s not worth…

Courtney Lee 20 Points Full Highlights (4/29/2015)

My #payAttentionToCourtneyLee Twitter campaign has failed to gain any significant amount of momentum since I launched it two days ago. I don’t get it. Do I need to pay Twitter users to use my hashtag? Do I need to pay Twitter to promote it? If somebody tells me who to give money to, I will…

Alan Anderson 23 Points Full Highlights (4/29/2015)

I’m not a NBA-quality coach or anything, but I’ve got an idea for a gameplan that would really help the Nets out in this series against the Hawks. Don’t have Alan Anderson be your leading scorer in a game. That’s just asking for trouble. It’s cool if he scores points. In fact, he should be…

Khris Middleton 21 Points Full Highlights (4/27/2015)

We all know that Khris Middleton is going to get paid a lot of Khash this offseason. His skillset is invaluable to most contending teams. The only question is, how much Khash will he end up receiving? It only takes one team to overvalue him and dash the hopes of all others. Let’s figure it…

Meyers Leonard 13 Points Full Highlights (4/27/2015)

Was anyone else getting really excited for Meyers Leonard after the second quarter of last night’s game against Memphis? I was. The playoffs are where heroes are born and legends are written by hooded scribes. I had visions of him being the savior that saved basketball in Portland. Down 3-0, backs against the wall, he…

Courtney Lee 19 Points Full Highlights (4/27/2015)

At the time of this writing, Courtney Lee is one of the best players in the playoffs in terms of win-shares. By this measure, Only Jimmy Butler, Stephen Curry, Marcin Gortat, and Kawhi Leonard are more valuable to their team’s success. This begs the question: why doesn’t anybody care about Courtney Lee? I’m fully aware…

Al-Farouq Aminu 16 Points Full Highlights (4/26/2015)

OFFICIAL NBA PLAYERS WHO LOOK LIKE DWIGHT HOWARD POWER RANKINGS 1. Dwight Howard 2. Joey Dorsey 3. Al-Farouq Aminu [POWER GAP] 492. Pablo Prigioni

Josh Smith 23 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (4/26/2015)

If there was any justice in this wretched world (there isn’t), Josh Smith would have airballed all of the threes that he took in this game. That would have been fair because he should get punished for taking them in the playoffs when the games actually matter. And he should get punished doubly because it…
