What’s up with the Boston video people and showing random shots of happy fans after a made Celtics basket? It’s weird. I don’t even especially care for close up face shots of the players themselves, and this surpasses that, going into straight-up voyeuristic territory. When I go to a sporting event, I want total certainty…

Jabari Parker 14 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2015)
Did anybody else freak out a little bit when Jabari started screaming while coming down from that dunk? I don’t want to lie to you guys, I almost started crying in the immediate aftermath. Then he got up and was running around like normal, but I was still a little bit shaken and I couldn’t…
Read MoreGiannis Antetokounmpo Career High 33 Points/5 Dunks Full Highlights (11/19/2015)
When the first splash of berry-flavored smoothie landed on his tongue, Giannis didn’t know what to think. As John Henson looked on expectantly, Giannis swallowed and smacked his lips, then pondered for a little bit. “It’s tasty,” he finally said. “What flavor it is?” “Berry,” John answered. “I think it’s strawberry and blueberry, and, uh,…
Read MoreBen McLemore 17 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2015)
What’s going on here? I really thought that Ben McLemore had turned the corner last year, and by this year would be Ray Allen 0.6 or so. Instead, he’s playing way less and randomly getting inserted and uninserted into the starting lineup. I do have some ideas for reasons as to why this may be:…
Read MoreTyler Johnson 19 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2015)
Today’s DownToBuck tech tip: do not try to watch NBA basketball on your computer while a highlight video is rendering. It doesn’t work, even if you REALLY want to watch the Clippers versus the Warriors. No amount of wanting will make it happen. This is the end result of choosing to have GPU-accelerated rendering; it…
Read MoreEnes Kanter 24 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2015)
I’m tired of everyone dissing Enes Kanter all the time. Alright, we get it, he’s probably the worst defender in the league, yada yada yada blah blah blah. Wow. Who cares? The horse has been dead for a long time now. Instead let’s focusing on the things he does well. Positivity! Let’s see, he’s pretty…
Read MoreElfrid Payton 24 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (11/18/2015)
There is a new civic engineering crisis in America. It is all of our duties to spread news of this impending disaster. Elfrid Payton’s hair looks like it’s going to collapse in on itself at any moment. It dangles precariously from the top of his head, one sudden move from total loss of structural integrity….
Read MoreRyan Anderson 30 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2015)
THE STORY SO FAR: Ryan Anderson, guided by some malicious inner voice, builds an arm-mounted flamethrower with which he incinerates all of his teammates. Returning back to his apartment, he sees a name stamped on the device. The Smoothie King is the one who has taken control of his mind! Simultaneously, Ryan is cornered by…
Read MoreEvan Fournier 26 Points/1 Game-Winner Full Highlights (11/18/2015)
Mario Hezonja held the explosive-rigged gift basket up to Evan Fournier’s car window, unaware that the bomb’s timer would go off in thirty seconds or so. “You forgot your gift basket, Evan!” “It was a gift!” Evan said, trying to keep the panic from his voice. “You keep it! That’s the point of a gift!…
Read MoreLuis Scola 22 Points Full Highlights (11/18/2015)
No. This is not what I wanted. When I saw Luis Scola scored 22 points, I was thinking one thing and one thing only: Post moves. At least one, right? Wrong. This is jumper city right here. Not that jumpers aren’t cool. They are. No denying that. But they are objectively less cool than post…
