It’s time for another episode of “DTB’s Honesty Hour”, where DownToBuck sits down with his fans and tells only true things and no lies. Since the Honesty Hour is all about being totally honest about everything, here’s a nugget for you: I don’t know anything about Bryce Cotton, other than the things I learned while…

Rudy Gobert 14 Points/6 Dunks Full Highlights (4/10/2015)
“Remi, give me a status report on Joffrey Lauvergne,” Rudy Gobert commanded, sitting at his expansive solid-oak desk with a glass of fine Chardonnay resting in his long fingers. The short, pointy-faced Frenchman consulted a folder in his hand. “Of course, sir, of course…let me see, Joffrey Lauvergne…” Remi murmured, paging through a large stack…
Read MoreRodney Stuckey 24 Points Full Highlights (4/10/2015)
Rodney “Looks Like 50 Cent” Stuckey has rebounded nicely from his unfortunate seven-year stint in Detroit. His scoring is down a little bit, but he’s shooting a career-best from the field as the Pacers are utilizing him better than the Pistons ever did. Rodney must have invoked the horned one himself from the scorching pits…
Read MoreTarik Black 18 Points/5 Dunks Full Highlights (4/10/2015)
Tarik “Tarrick Rose” Black once caught the attention of Aaron Rodgers for his potential as a tight end, despite never having played organized football at any level. In honor of this, DownToBuck takes a look at what sports some other members of the Lakers might be good at: Ryan Kelly: Hurling Robert Sacre: Any sport…
Read MoreMike Muscala 17 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (4/10/2015)
Mike Muscala reclined on his couch, eager for another night of ESPN. There was always the chance that his name would get dropped at some point, given that he had been the game’s leading scorer. And if there was even a chance that the name “Mike Muscala” would escape a reporter’s lips, it was his…
Read MoreRichard Jefferson 24 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (4/10/2015)
Not one, but TWO dunks in a game for Richard Jefferson? Not just regular dunks, but posterizing whammers? Forget about Gallo’s 47. Hell, forget about Kobe’s 81 and Wilt’s 100. This is some next-level stuff right here. It would take Dirk a whole season to accumulate that many slams, and ancient RJ is doing it…
Read MoreEnes Kanter 25 Points Full Highlights (4/10/2015)
Another good game for Enes Kanter. He really was misunderstood in Utah, I guess. Let this be a lesson to all haters on the internet (including me!): never call a player a bust until they suck for at least two teams. With just one team played for, it could just be a matter of them…
Read MoreDanilo Gallinari Career High 47 Points Full Highlights (4/10/2015)
“Hey man, great game tonight, too bad about the loss, huh?” Wilson Chandler wandered over to Danilo Gallinari’s locker. Danilo looked up, startled, as he hurriedly packed up his stuff. “What? Oh, yeah. I was really feeling it, and the guys kept finding me. I Liked the way they played tonight, lots of hustle, it…
Read MoreBeno Udrih 20 Points Full Highlights (4/10/2015)
This is a very Beno Udrih-esque performance by Beno Udrih. He has done one thing well since entering the league: hit midrange leaning-forward jumpers. His range can extend to the three-point line, but he really prefers to do his damage in the normally-least-efficient section of the court. I was hoping that he wouldn’t hit a…
Read MoreMarcus Smart 19 Points Full Highlights (4/10/2015)
Normally, when a player is a horrible shooter, percentage wise, he gets called out on it by every possible source. His team’s fans, other team’s fans, the general NBA punditry (I include myself in this category), fans from his college days, his mom, everybody. So why is Marcus Smart not receiving any flak for shooting…
