I would love to say that Joe Ingles made Paul George into his personal bitchboy and buttslave last night, however, that is not quite the case. Ingles scored 20 points, a respectable total, and he did have some words to say to George throughout the game (“I just hit another one ya cunt”), but George…

Derrick Rose 17 Points Full Highlights (4/23/2018)
I wonder which team is going to give Derrick Rose a contract based on this little run of good play here in the playoffs. There’s no question that someone will at this point, because he’s been legitimately legit three out of the four games so far, but who will pull the trigger? -Chicago Bulls. This…
Read MoreManu Ginobili 16 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (4/22/2018)
After the Spurs’ surprise win over the Warriors to hold off elimination for one game, I snuck in the Warriors’ locker room to see how the players were reacting to the fact that Manu Ginobili completely buried them at the end of the game. Here’s what I saw: Kevin Durcupcake: Butt-blasted by veteran savvy he…
Read MoreKyle Korver 18 Points Full Highlights (4/22/2018)
Kyle Korver only made four field goals in this game. Usually, four shots is not enough to get a highlight video from DTB. If you make four field goals but you have an otherwise highlight-worthy statline, that means you made too many free throws. Free throws suck. They’re not fun to watch, I hate them,…
Read MoreDomantas Sabonis 19 Points Full Highlights (4/22/2018)
Domantas Sabonis pretty much gave Jabroni Lames and the rest of the Cavaliers his Saboner in this game, going 9-of-11 from the field, but the rest of his teammates failed to offer similar contributions. For example, Bogdanovic’s Bogdanoboner was nowhere to be found (he went 4-of-13), and Oladipo’s Oladiboner did not intimidate the Cavaliers at…
Read MoreJayson Tatum 21 Points Full Highlights (4/22/2018)
DownToBuck’s hot take of the series: Jayson Tatum is not making enough threes. BOOM. There it is. Disagree if you want, and I know many of you will because of the controversiality of the statement, because of the hotness of the take, but be advised that if you attempt to debate me on the subject,…
Read MoreKhris Middleton 23 Points Full Highlights (4/22/2018)
Believe it or not, there are Bucks fans out there who don’t even like Khris Middleton. I know, right? It seems crazy, but in the current NBA climate, it is easy to be fooled into thinking that midrange jumpers (Middleton’s specialty) are horrible and should never be attempted, and especially should never be attempted in…
Read MoreJaylen Brown Career High 34 Points Full Highlights (4/22/2018)
Win or lose, the Celtics have learned something valuable in this series with the Bucks: Jaylen Brown is a premium grade-A certified without-a-doubt one-hundred percent confirmed beast. Serious playoff success may not be in the cards, even if they win the series (which wouldn’t surprise because the Bucks are hot gutter trash), but just imagine…
Read MoreJoe Ingles 21 Points Full Highlights (4/21/2018)
We currently live on a planet where a player with the physical profile of a flabby 40-year-old dad is top ten in the NBA in three-point makes for a season. Remember, we’re talking about the NBA here. You know, the best basketball league in the world. I fully expect a Joe Ingles-type player could be…
Read MoreRicky Rubio Triple Double 26 Pts/11 Rebs/10 Asts Full Highlights (4/21/2018)
“Hey DownToBuck,” Ricky says as he walks towards me from a great distance. “Ricky,” I murmur to myself, quietly enough that he can’t hear it, and I know this must be a dream because there is no circumstance in my waking life where I would get to see Ricky Rubio in person. I try to…
