Kyle O’Quinn is one of those players whose signing will either be a total steal or a total ripoff. An underutilized player in Orlando with intriguing attributes and advanced stats, The Irish Black Santa would either thrive when put into a new situation or just keep doing what he was doing before while getting four…

Kristaps Porzingis 22 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2016)
Take a close look, because this is what the Knicks could have looked like had Carmelo Anthony bolted to Chicago. That’s right: it looks like Kyle O’Quinn scoring 19 and Kristaps Porzingis scoring 22 while Jimmer Fredette claps enthusiastically after every made shot. You can’t wholly remove Melo from tonight’s game; he did shoot it…
Read MoreTobias Harris 22 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2016)
Tobias Harris: big enough to bogart some people? According to the Pistons’ commentators, yes. I don’t know about Detroit, but around in my neck of the woods, “bogart” has one definition and one definition only: to hog the weed. That’s it. There are no other definitions. From the context of the quote, I can imagine…
Read MoreMatt Barnes 25 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2016)
Attention sensationalist media outlets: Thanks to your efforts, the whole world knows about how Matt Barnes and Derek Fisher got into a brawl over some stretched-out poon. One of the year’s most compelling stories brought to light thanks to your tireless dedication to trashy tabloid-esque garbage. Enough formalities. It is time for business. I (DownToBuck)…
Read MoreD’Angelo Russell 22 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (2/24/2016)
The Lakers/Kobe must really be messing D’Angelo Russell up. 8 assists is a pretty good amount, but would you believe that it’s his career high? As in, never before tonight had he racked up that many dimes in an NBA-sanction basketball contest. Even Emmanuel Mudiay got more than that in his first game, and that…
Read MoreMyles Turner 24 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2016)
At what point did Myles Turner become a total beast? Because it seems like he was scoring in single digits all the time just a few weeks ago, and now all of a sudden he’s going bananas on a semi-regular basis. Just like that. He flashed serious talent in Summer League, but, from early returns,…
Read MoreMarcin Gortat 21 Points Full Highlights (2/23/2016)
Marcin Gortat was an old rookie, so it might catch you off guard that he is now 32 years old. His time as a useful player will soon come to an end. Before we know it, the Polish Hammer will no longer be forcing his large and meaty Polish sausage down the throats of defenders….
Read MoreJared Dudley 18 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (2/23/2016)
“Dear DTB, You have now posted two of my personal letters to you on your channel. Assuming that this letter is likewise posted, that will be three. I am glad that you make highlight videos of me, but it is very unnecessary to divulge our private communications like this. I have had my lawyer contact…
Read MoreNikola Jokic 13 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (2/23/2016)
After this impressive display by Nikola Jokic, I feel comfortable revealing my new nickname for him: “Magic Jokson”. I did a soft release of the nickname about a month ago; it is time for a full roll-out. For it to really work you have to pronounce the Jokson part like “Jock-sun”, not “Yoke-sun”. Other than…
Read MoreJahlil Okafor 17 Points Full Highlights (2/23/2016)
Say what you will about Jahlil Okafor, that he can’t play defense, that he doesn’t want to play defense anyway, that his antics off the court are hurting the team, that he’s an inefficient chucker, that his distant cousin was the worst ROY ever, that the Sixers are better with him off the floor, that…
