Since I, DownToBuck, am a world-renowned expert in linguistics and etymologies (according to the many plaques and little glass obelisks I have on my desk awarded by various professional societies), I have decided to undertake an etymological breakdown of Drew Eubanks’ name. In doing so I hope to uncover facets of his personality/style of play…

Rudy Gay 24 Points Full Highlights (8/5/2020)
Rudy Gay is using this Bonus Bubble Basketball session to demonstrate to the world (and, honestly, the whole universe [assuming they can decode our television signals (“they” being alien life forms)]) that he’s not just a role-player at this stage in his career. He’s a HIGH-END ROLE-PLAYER. That’s the official designation you get when you’re…
Read MoreKeldon Johnson 20 Points Full Highlights (8/5/2020)
KELDON JOHNSON GOOD. BRYN FORBES BAD. KELDON JOHNSON GOOD. BRYN FORBES BAD. KELDON JOHNSON GOOD. BRYN FORBES BAD. Come on people, say it with me! If you want to, you can even stomp your feet like you’re saying it while marching. It’s way more martial and terrifying that way. KELDON JOHNSON GOOD. BRYN FORBES BAD….
Read MoreJa Morant 20 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (8/5/2020)
The ‘Zlies are collapsing. Not collapsing hard enough to cost Ja Morant the ROTY of the Year award (which is the only thing ‘Zlies fans should be caring about right now), no collapse is big enough for that to happen, but collapsing in such a way that their chances at the playoffs are now in…
Read MoreMichael Porter Jr. 30 Points Full Highlights (8/5/2020)
DTB’S FUN FACT OF THE DAY: Michael Porter Jr. just scored thirty points in two consecutive games. The last player to achieve that feat was the Bucks’ Carlos Delfino in the 2011-12 season. Believe it or don’t. Right now I’m hoping that all the Nuggets that are currently injured decide to stay injured for just…
Read MoreDillon Brooks 23 Points Full Highlights (8/5/2020)
At this point, the only reason I make Dillon Brooks videos anymore is because I KNOW that the thumbnails are going to be good. The video itself isn’t going to be good, and the video description isn’t going to be good, but the thumbnail image? Guaranteed goodness. Remember, all three of those things are equal…
Read MoreGrayson Allen 20 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (8/5/2020)
Big props going out right now to Grayson Allen. He really seemed like one of those players who would be pretty fun and good in college, but whose game would completely fail to translate, leaving him either toiling in the G-League, scraping around for 10-days, or playing for some team in Europe and having a…
Read MoreJoe Ingles 25 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (8/5/2020)
So those of you who have been paying attention to my life will know that Joe Ingles is permanently on the “DTB Diss List” for not helping me acquire a real-life wallaby from Australia. He is a full-blown Australian, has insider access to all levels of Australian government (not to mention whatever stupid wildlife conservation…
Read MoreDanuel House 17 Points Full Highlights (8/4/2020)
Oh, to be a role-player on the Houston Rockets. There is no pressure to do anything; in fact, doing anything is actively discouraged. Just stand there while James Harden does his thing, maybe move around a bit if you’re feeling up to it, and wait until whatever gimmick defense the other team is using to…
Read MoreJeff Green 22 Points Full Highlights (8/4/2020)
Jeff Green, somehow, is still only 33 years old. I think the fact that he was a rookie with the Supersonics is distorting my view of him. I mean, he was on the Supersonics. You know, that team that was in Seattle a million years ago? And if he’s been around long enough to be…
