At the end of last season, I detailed a visit to DeMarcus by none other than the Basketball Fairy, who granted him three wishes. DeMarcus used his wishes on a nacho cheese-dispensing shower, cupboards containing infinite tortilla chips, and a change to his personality so that he was no longer a team cancer. How are…

Tim Hardaway Jr. Career High 21 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (12/1/2013)
What’s wrong with the Knicks? That’s a stupid question. There is an obvious problem with the Knicks that was not present last year: JR Smith is playing like he’s a homeless man who just happened to wander in to Madison Square Garden. That and the fact that they aren’t hitting threes at the ridiculous rate…
Read MoreKlay Thompson 28 Points/8 Threes Full Highlights (12/1/2013)
If Klay Thompson keeps up this incredible shooting, he has a chance at breaking the single-season record for most three-pointers made, set only last year by his partner in crime Stephen Curry. This is the direction the league is going in. NBA teams have realized that shooting tons of threes is a path to success….
Read MoreBrandon Knight 19 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (11/30/2013)
In the darkness of his bedroom, Brandon Knight furtively scrolled through her pictures on Facebook. Stopping on each one, he scanned the screen carefully, his eye stopping wherever a bit of exposed flesh, however small, was visible. On occasion, he got a tantalizing view of cleavage, or even better, a full shot of her seemingly-infinite…
Read MorePaul Millsap 23 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (11/30/2013)
Paul Millsap has always been an underrated player. Playing on the Jazz will do that to a guy. And now that he’s on the Hawks, somehow even fewer people care about him. But he’s in luck, because DownToBuck cares about all NBA players, big or small, with special favoritism shown to those who can shoot…
Read MoreQuincy Pondexter Career High 22 Points Full Highlights (11/30/2013)
22 Points in 21 minutes? Pretty good, yeah? How about 0 rebounds in 22 minutes? Pathetic, Quincy. Shameful display. You’re 6’6” and you can clearly jump high enough to dunk, so couldn’t you just get one rebound? It’s not like Jon Leuer and Mike Miller are stealing all the rebounds. There’s gotta be at least…
Read MoreDion Waiters 20 Points Full Highlights (11/30/2013)
There are some rumors swirling around that Dion Waiters fought Kyrie Irving during a players’ only meeting. As in, punches were thrown. Nobody knows exactly what happened…nobody except DownToBuck. I had three people planted in the locker room at the time of the meeting (one in a trash can, one in an air duct, and…
Read MoreTony Snell 18 Points Full Highlights (11/30/2013)
“Reservations for three, Mr. Snell your table is ready”. That is in actual sentence that was actually uttered on live TV by Stacey King. Can you believe that? I’ve heard a lot of stupid crap said by basketball colormen, but this takes the stupid cake. It’s like something an overenthusiastic high school kid would come…
Read MoreGiannis Antetokounmpo 10 Points/4 Assists Full Highlights (11/30/2013)
I am a superior human being to you. This goes without saying. But my dominance over you now grows, somehow, even more unconquerable. I can type out the name “Antetokounmpo” without consulting reference materials of any kind. Although once you realize the fact that its a romanization of a Greek transliteration of a Nigerian name…
Read MoreMarco Belinelli 19 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (11/29/2013)
My phone rang. Taking a break from splitting and splicing clips of Mirza Teletovic, I answered. “Mr. ToBuck speaking.” A nervous-sounding Italian man was on the other end. “DTB, this is Marco,” he started. As soon as he said his name, I knew what he was after. “I understand you have a video of me…
