Torrey Craig 14 Points Full Highlights (1/10/2019)

Torrey Craig is a starter on the best team in the West. Is that messed up or what? Even in today’s NBA, that means defense means something. Because let’s just say he wasn’t the 2017 NBL (that’s Australia for you cretins) DPOY for no reason. Also he was MVP of that league in 2015 which…

Marco Belinelli 19 Points Full Highlights (1/10/2019)

With 7.8 threes attempted per 36 minutes this year, Marco Belinelli is sitting right around 50th in the NBA in that stat. That’s inclusing a bunch of players who barely play (and Carmelo Anthony, LMAO), otherwise he’d be around 25th or so. But if this was 10 years ago, he’d be in the top ten…

Justise Winslow 13 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (1/10/2019)

Goran “All-Star PG” Dragic double-digit assist games last year: 1. Justise “Bust” Winslow double-digit assist games this year: 2. That’s all that needs to be said. The fact that a bust like Bustise Winsbust could out-assist a supposed star-caliber like Goran Dragic means that either Dragic is not as star-like as assumed, or that Winslow…

Jerami Grant Career High 25 Points Full Highlights (1/10/2019)

Given their respective college careers (and their draft positions), I don’t think anybody thought that Jerami Grant would be the superior brother out of him and Jerian Grant. Yet here we are. Jerami is getting big minutes on one of the powerhouses in the West, while Jerian’s minutes on a bad team in the East,…

Terrance Ferguson 21 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (1/10/2019)

“Dear Mr. Ferguson, I suppose that when you see a letter from the famed DownToBuck, you might assume that I am writing to congratulate you on a good game. After all, you are fully aware that DownToBuck is the preeminent highlights provider for role-players and scrubs leaguewide. How naive of you. I am not writing…

Derrick White 23 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (1/10/2019)

Imagine blocking somebody so hard that you injure yourself. That’s what Derrick White did when he blocked Jerami Grant at the rim in the second overtime of this thrilling matchup. It was actually more like Grant injured him since it was Grant’s elbow that made contact, but it’s more fun to think about it in…

Marcus Smart 18 Points/1 Block Full Highlights (1/10/2019)

I’ve been one of Smart’s biggest critics ever since he came in to the league. Among the attributes of his that I have criticized: -His hair (which looks like white-cheddar cheetos dyed half-black) -His complexion (low blow, but his acne scarring is crazy bad) -Celtic fans’ adoration of him (not his fault, but also kind…

Bruce Brown 15 Points Full Highlights (1/10/2019)

It pains me to admit it, but there are times when my extensive (some would say encyclopedic) knowledge of the current state of the NBA fails me. It doesn’t happen often, but when it does, it’s devastating to my psyche. I am reduced to a shell of my former shelf, my identity lying shattered around…

Harry Giles 14 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (1/10/2019)

Before the season started, I didn’t know what, if anything, to expect from Harry Giles. I knew that he had been drafted as an injured dude who was at one point a top prospect in the nation, but perhaps wasn’t one any longer. I figured that anything he did in the NBA was just a…

Mason Plumlee 17 Points Full Highlights (1/10/2019)

OFFICIAL DTB DISCLAIMER: Mason Plumlee does not get any assists to Nikola Jokic in this video. Neither does he receive any assists from Jokic. Plumlee and Jokic don’t even really seem to share the court in this video. There are no plays that one makes facilitated by the other. If you are a Serb trying…
