Josh Richardson Career High 32 Points Full Highlights (11/3/2018)

Sometimes I get really far into making a highlight video before I realize that the commentators are for a team other than the one the player is on and that I’ve been using the wrong broadcast. Like I don’t register whose voices I’m hearing, just what they’re saying. I guess they didn’t seem that excited…

Jeremy Lamb 19 Points Full Highlights (11/3/2018)

Jeremy Lamb has been in Charlotte for a long time now. Four years, has it really been that long? It seems like just last week he was being picked up as a reclamation project from an unsuccessful stint with the Thunder. That team apparently has made a habit of trading away great players for no…

Trae Young 24 Points/15 Assists Full Highlights (11/3/2018)

I’m unsure if I’ve already said this (not like I have an archive of descriptions I can refer to anything), but I did not expect Trae Young to be this good this early. I fully thought it would take him a month or so before doing anything of note. He just didn’t seem like the…

Joe Harris 18 Points Full Highlights (11/2/2018)

If there’s one thing I love about the NBA, it’s how buttmad the fanbases of “good” teams get when they lose to “bad” teams. Observing the profanity-sprinkled meltdowns of the collective is satisfying in the same way those “Russian Winter Car Crash” compilation videos are. Even better is if the meltdown includes calls for management…

Shelvin Mack 19 Points Full Highlights (11/2/2018)

I just spent the last fifteen minutes frantically searching the Googs for phrases like “Do I have Alzheimer’s” and “early onset dementia” and “Alzheimer’s symptoms”. Now, thanks to all that Googling, I’m fairly convinced that I have the ‘Zheimers, and while I won’t let this be the end of DownToBuck, I’m sort of dreading the…

Isaiah Canaan 19 Points Full Highlights (11/2/2018)

Now seems like a good time to remind people that Isaiah Canaan was 15th in total made three-pointers in the 2015-16 season. He would’ve been higher, but he sat out the last few as the 76ers were in the deepest throes of tanking. To reiterate: Canaan, who is just a guy, was one of the…

Jerami Grant Career High 22 Points Full Highlights (11/2/2018)

I just want to shout out the Wizards commentator (I forget his name) who managed to acknowledge Jerami Grant’s career-high (he didn’t mention that part) 22 points while being overcome with smothering melancholy. That takes inner power. Normally he just sits in silence when things are going really wrong, as they have been for the…

Carmelo Anthony 29 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (11/2/2018)

Maybe I jumped the gun on banishing Carmelo Anthony to my channel (is banishing even something you can do to something? or only away from?), because this is the third video I’ve had to make for him. Did he even have a game this good at any point last year. I wasn’t paying much attention,…

Ricky Rubio 22 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (11/2/2018)

The thing with Ricky Rubio is that his flat-ass jumpers never feel sustainable. They go in often enough, I guess, but do you ever see him put one up and think “oh yeah that’s definitely going in”? No. So when he has a good stretch of gametime where he’s line-driving them into the hole, you…
