The lowly grunt in the video room at the Amway Center was setting up a replay of the most recent made three-pointer. He didn’t know who had made the shot, or if it was important in the context of the game, but until something more exciting happened, replays of three-pointers were a good fallback option…

Jahlil Okafor 19 Points Full Highlights (11/16/2016)
19 points in only 20 minutes for Jahlil Okafor? Grab your pitchforks and torches, we’re going on a hunt, we’re out for blood, and we won’t return until we have Brett Brown’s head impaled on a pike! Who’s with me?! WOOOOOOOO! Wait, wait… hold on. Just everybody hold up! I’m checking the boxscore again and…
Read MoreWilson Chandler 28 Points Full Highlights (11/16/2016)
In today’s episode of “Google Autocomplete Adventures”, we examine what Google’s disturbing robotic hivemind AI thinks you want when you type in “Wilson Chandler”. Result one: “Wilson Chandler”. This one makes sense, when you type in Chandler’s name, obviously you are going to want internet documents relaating to him. Why else would you be typing…
Read MoreBrandon Knight 32 Points Full Highlights (11/16/2016)
The Suns have finally done what Bucks fans were (futilely, as it turned out for them) clamoring for with regards to Brandon Knight: turned him into a 6th-man chucker. It hasn’t been as successful as people were probably imagining. He’s scoring way worse this year, on way worse percentages, for a way worse team. Uh…
Read MoreTerrence Jones 26 Points Full Highlights (11/16/2016)
After shamelessly chasing views with my last video, I have decided to atone by making this one, which depicts a player who no one at all cares about: Terrence Jones! He had his share of fans when he was with the Rockets, I think. Maybe I’m misremembering. But whatever he fans he may or may…
Read MoreKristaps Porzingis Career High 35 Points Full Highlights (11/16/2016)
Is it time for me to stop doing Kristaps Porzingis highlights? In case you missed it, here’s the DownToBuck manifesto, written on the day I started this channel: “I make NBA highlights. I like to give some spotlight to the lesser known players.” Krispy definitely falls into the first category. He is an NBA player…
Read MoreJerian Grant 18 Points/5 Steals Full Highlights (11/15/2016)
Count me among those who remain unconvinced by Jerian Grant. It’s well known that Phil Jackson reached when drafting him because he’s obsessed with big point guards or something, so it’s not like it’s Jerian’s fault that he’s not living up to his draft slot, but still. He was not very good in New York…
Read MoreTimofey Mozgov 20 Points Full Highlights (11/15/2016)
In perusing my large collection of Timofey Mozgov closeups for the perfect thumbnail image, I’ve noticed something: Mozgov has the greyest eyes ever. They are greyer than grey. The are both gray and grey simultaneously. Unlike some special snowflakes who characterize their eye color as “hazel” or “green” (both being made-up colors), Mozgov’s are legit…
Read MoreChanning Frye 21 Points Full Highlights (11/15/2016)
If LeBron James averages a triple-double this year, it’s going to be in large part due to Channing Frye being a conduit through which free assists are channeled. 6 of 7 FryeBaskets were assisted by LeBron in this game. If they can even have half that connection during the average game, 10 assists per game…
Read MoreBojan Bogdanovic 29 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (11/15/2016)
What’s up with Bojan Bogdanovic and postering people this year? First he totally smushed it on Giannis Antetokounmpo, now he’s gone and power-pumped right on top of Timofey Mozgov. There’s a joke in there about Russo-Croatian relations, but I’m not going to make it. I’ve learned my lesson. Don’t even tempt me on this one,…
