So this morning I woke up and everything was normal. I had pop tarts for breakfast (Stephanie thinks my reliance on pre-packaged “easy foods” is funny and endearing) then sat down at my computer to peruse the NBA news of the day. Of course I skipped all the news about contracts because 1. I don’t…

Jaylen Brown Career High 25 Points Full Highlights (10/17/2017)
Today was a strangely eventful day for your old pal DownToBuck. The good news is, I’m back to making highlights. The bad news is…well, you’ll have to keep reading to find out what the bad news is. Otherwise you’d stop reading here and I’d have written down all these words for nothing. So, I’m gonna…
Read MoreEvery NBA Player’s First Field Goal This Season (2016-17 Season Full-ilation Part IV)
This is what you’ve been waiting for. The scrubbiest scrubs in the NBA, making shots. Every player shown in this video made 55 field goals or less. Hell yeah. 0:09 – I’m not sure Jeff Withey even touched this ball. 0:52 – This is the first, but not the last, player in the video where…

Part three of my full-ilation is subtitled “entering the void of lesser talent” because we’ve gotten to the point where some of these guys can’t even be called “role players” anymore. Diehard DTB adherents should recognize these dudes, but casual peasants might be confused by some of the names. That’s okay. You’re free to leave…
Read MoreEvery NBA Player’s First Field Goal This Season (2016-17 Season Full-ilation Part II)
This is part two of my video series displaying every player’s first converted field goal in the 2016-17 season. Part one was already getting towards some scrubby players by the end; part two continues that downward trend. If you like role-players, part two is pretty much the best part of them all. Just as in…
Read MoreEvery NBA Player’s First Field Goal This Season (2016-17 Season Full-ilation Part I)
Welcome to part one of my bold, forward-looking new series where I display the first made shot of every player who converted a field goal this season, starting with the most prolific shot-maker and ending with the most marginal scrub in the NBA. I have dubbed it a “full-ilation”, because what could be more “full”…
Read MoreDTB’s Top 100 Dunks of the 2016-17 NBA Season (2016-17 Season Dunkilation)
As Jennifer ran towards him after his successful dunk, Nick’s mind was a blur, and most of the myriad thoughts racing through his head were some variation on the idea that he had never, ever, in his entire life, kissed a girl. The nervous sickness that he had banished before the attempt had returned in…

“Where’s Nick anyway?” Jake asked the assembled group of friends who were sitting in the bleachers, waiting for the pep rally to start. “It’s like he doesn’t even want to see the cheerleaders bounce around and do flips. That’s like the best part.” Jake lecherously eyed the perkily hopping cheer members, who were attempting to…

“That was the best meal I’ve had in forever!” Rachel said happily as she finished up her plate of chicken Parmigiana. “Glad you liking it,” Giannis said humbly. It was just an Italian place near his house that Yelp had recommended. He had picked it because it was labeled “$$” on that site, meaning that…

I just can’t believe my luck sometimes. So last week I got to go to this thing in New York City, it was called the “YouTube Sports Highlight Summit”. Basically they just invited a bunch of YouTube highlight people to go to a fancy hotel in NYC and listen to speakers who are experts in…
