James Harden All 378 Three-Pointers Full Highlights (2018-19 Season Three-ilation Part I)
James Harden is notable for many things: his stepback three-pointer that looks like a travel. His ability to enrage opposing fanbases with uncanny foul-drawing ability. The fact that Sam Presti deemed his value in a trade to be equivalent to that of Kevin Martin. That funny commercial where he sang about taking his shirt off…
Read MoreP.J. Tucker 15 Points Full Highlights (5/10/2019)
The Rockets season is over. This isn’t as tragic as the way they lost last year, which was a top-five tragic occurrence in the NBA ever, but it still must be sad for Houston fans. They just kind of sputtered out, even playing at home in an elimination game with the opposing team missing its…
Read MoreKevon Looney 14 Points Full Highlights (5/10/2019)
It took Kevin Durant being injured, but the Warriors finally got a decent performance from one of their bench players. And that means I finally get to make a Warriors vid for someone other than Andre Iguodala who, by the way, I’m FRICKIN’ tired of. I don’t even like that dude. Not like I enjoy…
Read MoreAndre Iguodala 17 Points/5 Steals Full Highlights (5/10/2019)
I think I am enjoying the Warriors a little bit more now that Kevin Durant is injured temporarily. DeMarcus Cousins going down was the first step to making them seem less like a ridiculous superteam that is ruining the NBA forever, and Kevin Durant following his lead is the second step to making them seem…
Read MoreZach Collins 14 Points/5 Blocks Full Highlights (5/9/2019)
It says something about the Blazers’ center rotation when Jusuf Nurkic is out and Meyers Leonard still doesn’t get to play. It appears that Terry Stotts is perfectly content to just run Enes Kanter and Zach Collins out there for all the center minutes. Is there such a thing as being too deep? That’s a…
Read MoreRodney Hood 25 Points Full Highlights (5/9/2019)
Remember when LeGM specifically targeted Rodney Hood to bring to the LeCavs so they could win LeChampionship? It was part of the same three-team trade that saw George Hill come to the team. I don’t hold LeBron’s player evaluation abilities in the highest esteem, but acquiring Hood made sense at the time because he had…
Read MoreNikola Jokic 29 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (5/9/2019)
In the immortal words of Zaza Pachulia: “Game Seven! GAME SEVOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!”. Combine this upcoming game seven with the other game seven that is for sure happening (Sixers-Raptors) and the potential game seven that will probably happen (Warriors-Rockets) and your pal DownToBuck is not going to be a happy camper. That’s too much pressure for me….
Read MorePascal Siakam 21 Points Full Highlights (5/9/2018)
Pascal Siakam fatigue is really starting to set in for your pal Dee Tee Bee. Out of eleven playoff games he’s played in so far, nine of them have been deserving of a highlight video. Basically, if Siakam plays anywhere near his expected minutes, he’ll put together a highlight-worthy scoring total no matter what his…
Read MoreGeorge Hill 16 Points Full Highlights (5/8/2019)
I wasn’t able to watch this game live (DTB’s internetip of the day: do not ever have any obligations in real life if you can help it), but it’s plain to me just from looking at the boxscore that George Hill continued his pattern of dominating the Celtics. He dominated them in such dominating fashion…
