It is super impressive how useful Kent Bazemore has managed to make himself this season. Just a couple years ago I was fearing for his spot in the league, as no one has much use for a towel-waving specialist who can’t score. Now, he’s a key cog in one of the best teams in the…

Al Horford 30 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (12/29/2015)
Al Horford just tallied the first 30 point game for the Hawks in over a year, the last coming on November 12th when Paul Millsap dominated his old team for the same amount. Now, I know that the Hawks like to pass the ball and distribute the scoring equally amongst each other. DownToBuck appreciates that….

For some reason, the amount of hype for Giannis Antetokounmpo I notice around the internet is less than it should be.

There is no part of the…

Watching Brandon Jennings pass the ball to Ersan Ilyasova for a three pointer brought back memories I thought permanently repressed. Years of Bucks fandom, rushing back into my mind like a river bursting through a dam. Images of Andrew Bogut, the screams of him mangling his arm, remembrances of drafting Joe Alexander, an apparition of…

I think the YouTubes are leaking into real life. Check out that the music that the Nuggets arena people are playing at 1:13. You heard right: it’s that overused “epic”/”motivating” music that accompanies approximately half of the videos on YouTube. I don’t feel like figuring out the name of the piece, but it’s recognizable instantly….
