So Nick Young scored 22 points in the second half after not scoring in the first. When it comes to Lakers-related topics, Nick Young is probably the most exciting and relevant. NOT! Kobe’s retiring, bitches! I know what you’re all thinking, so I will put it to a vote: should DTB start doing Kobe highlights…

Clint Capela 18 Points Full Highlights (11/29/2015)
Clint Capela and Dwight Howard, in the midst of a rather vehement disagreement, approached their interim head coach, J.B. Bickerstaff. “Coach, Clint’s being a dummy. Tell him to stop being so dumb!” Dwight whined. J.B. sighed. This was not the first time in his short coaching stint that he had dealt with his team’s childish…
Read MoreAaron Gordon 12 Points/2 Threes Full Highlights (11/29/2015)
Aaron Gordon is still in that stage of player development known as “The one where DownToBuck makes highlights if the player shows anything at all”. This is not a good stage of player development. Put another way: I wouldn’t even think to do highlights of Karl-Anthony Towns if he scored a mere 12 points. It…
Read MoreArron Afflalo 31 Points Full Highlights (11/29/2015)
I will never forgive the NBA for not making Arron Afflalo an All-Star during the 2013-14 season. Never. Ever. He was averaging like 20 points a game! You knew, they knew, he knew, his mom knew, everybody knew that he was never going to approach that kind of production ever again. Thanks to the cruel…
Read MoreKristaps Porzingis 20 Points Full* Highlights (11/29/2015)
Another good game for Kristaps Porzingis. I don’t even get that excited anymore. At this point, I’d way rather see a legit good performance out of Sasha Vujacic than yet another one out of the Latvian. I’ve developed tolerances like that for a lot of fun-to-watch players. The worrying thing is how quickly I developed…
Read MoreKarl-Anthony Towns 17 Points Full Highlights (11/29/2015)
Now THIS is how you develop a rookie. Don’t let him get any easy looks in the paint. How is Karl-Anthony Towns going to get better if he has someone feeding him bunnies underneath the basket? He isn’t. The only way, and I mean the ONLY way, he’s going to improve is if he has…
Read MoreMirza Teletovic 20 Points Full Highlights (11/29/2015)
Which version of Mirza Teletovic did the Suns think they were getting when they plucked him from Brooklyn? A. The one who is a multidimensional space mercenary, fighting under the banner of King Hyperiarch. B. The one who shoots lots of threes while blood clots inhabit every nook and cranny of his lungs. C. The…
