“Come find me, Luka,” Dirk Nowitzki whispered into Luka Doncic’s ear as Luka patiently answered questions from the flock of reporters that surrounded his locker. “After these guys leave.” Luka subtly nodded to let Dirk know he understood, and as Dirk retreated to his own locker to answer comparatively fewer questions, Luka wondered what Dirk…
Read MoreAnte Zizic 18 Points Full Highlights (1/11/2019)
In my opinion, which I could tell you is provided humbly but really isn’t, Ante “Antetozizpo” Zizic can pretty much reproduce the production of the injured Kevin Love if given enough opportunities. Note that I’m not saying he could reproduce the impact of Love, just the production. And when I say “production”, I mean the…
Read MoreKevin Huerter Career High 29 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (1/11/2019)
Today’s DTB challenge: figure out a good comparison for Kevin Huerter who ISN’T melanin-deprived. I’ll let you work on it for a bit, and then reveal my answer. Tough, huh? The problem with human brains (among other things, like not ever being able to stop thinking about naked females), is that they are simply incapable…
Read MoreTomas Satoransky Triple Double 18 Pts/12 Rebs/10 Asts Full Highlights (1/11/2019)
Tomas Satoransky grimaced a little bit as he could hear the sounds of an argument beginning between his teammates. It was like this whether they won or lost. John and Bradley always found something something to disagree about, and, while some of the other teammates ignored the arguments, others couldn’t resist coming to the defense…
Read MoreTorrey Craig 14 Points Full Highlights (1/10/2019)
Torrey Craig is a starter on the best team in the West. Is that messed up or what? Even in today’s NBA, that means defense means something. Because let’s just say he wasn’t the 2017 NBL (that’s Australia for you cretins) DPOY for no reason. Also he was MVP of that league in 2015 which…
Read MoreMarco Belinelli 19 Points Full Highlights (1/10/2019)
With 7.8 threes attempted per 36 minutes this year, Marco Belinelli is sitting right around 50th in the NBA in that stat. That’s inclusing a bunch of players who barely play (and Carmelo Anthony, LMAO), otherwise he’d be around 25th or so. But if this was 10 years ago, he’d be in the top ten…
Read MoreJustise Winslow 13 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (1/10/2019)
Goran “All-Star PG” Dragic double-digit assist games last year: 1. Justise “Bust” Winslow double-digit assist games this year: 2. That’s all that needs to be said. The fact that a bust like Bustise Winsbust could out-assist a supposed star-caliber like Goran Dragic means that either Dragic is not as star-like as assumed, or that Winslow…
Read MoreJerami Grant Career High 25 Points Full Highlights (1/10/2019)
Given their respective college careers (and their draft positions), I don’t think anybody thought that Jerami Grant would be the superior brother out of him and Jerian Grant. Yet here we are. Jerami is getting big minutes on one of the powerhouses in the West, while Jerian’s minutes on a bad team in the East,…
Read MoreTerrance Ferguson 21 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (1/10/2019)
“Dear Mr. Ferguson, I suppose that when you see a letter from the famed DownToBuck, you might assume that I am writing to congratulate you on a good game. After all, you are fully aware that DownToBuck is the preeminent highlights provider for role-players and scrubs leaguewide. How naive of you. I am not writing…
Read MoreDerrick White 23 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (1/10/2019)
Imagine blocking somebody so hard that you injure yourself. That’s what Derrick White did when he blocked Jerami Grant at the rim in the second overtime of this thrilling matchup. It was actually more like Grant injured him since it was Grant’s elbow that made contact, but it’s more fun to think about it in…
