Ersan Ilyasova has a grand total of one (1) game in the 10-19 scoring range, a 10-point outing against the Knicks. Everything else has been single digits or twenty-plus. Feast or famine with this man. Still, I thought it would be all famine with him due to how he finished last season. Every 20-point game…
Read MoreCourtney Lee 27 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2017)
MSG Network spent pretty much this whole game trying to guilt me into donating to Garden of Dreams. At a few points I had the number dialed and my credit card in hand, but I was able to step back from the brink. Not like I don’t support their cause, but I have to save…
Read MoreRondae Hollis-Jefferson Career High 25 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2017)
Both Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Spencer Dinwiddie ended up with career-highs tonight, and still the Nets lost. It would be easy for me to go “LOL Nets” and leave it at that, but tonight, we will find the real reason as to why never before seen performances by two of their most important players resulted in…
Read MoreSpencer Dinwiddie Career High 26 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (12/14/2017)
Good news everyone! DownToBuck is back in business, directly defying Ajit Pai and his Net Neutrality. The slow lane that my ISP put me in isn’t even that slow: it only took 23 minutes to upload this vid for you guys. The thumbnail took an extra 5, which isn’t so bad either. They said I…
Read MoreSerge Ibaka 21 Points Full Highlights (12/13/2017)
This is probably the last video I’ll be able to upload. Net Neutrality has been repealed, and I just got a letter from my ISP that says I have to pay 50 dollars for each vid I want to put on YouTube. I know, right? Ridiculous. Obviously, I’m not going to be able to pay…
Read MoreTyler Ulis 16 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (12/13/2017)
Tyler Ulis hasn’t been having the monster games we were seeing from him at the end of last season. The Suns aren’t as blatantly tanking, which could be a factor, but it’s not like he’s having to fight off better players for minutes. He just hasn’t been good this year. Good news is that he…
Read MoreMichael Kidd-Gilchrist 18 Points/3 Jumpshots Full Highlights (12/13/2017)
Are jumpshots a part of Michael Kidd-Gilchrist’s game now? I’m looking at his shot chart and comparing it to previous years, and the results are inconclusive. Maybe he’s shooting a few more this year? It’s easy to think of him as an around-the-rim-only player, but players his size are basically forced to take at least…
Read MoreAndrew Harrison 20 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (12/13/2017)
Let’s be real here. You can’t expect a team that starts Andrew “32% shooting” Harrison to win any games, especially if the best players he gets to play with is a discontented, low-effort Marc Gasol and whoever the other good player who played for the Grizzlies in this game was. Maybe JaMychal Green. That’s just…
Read MoreSteven Adams 23 Points Full Highlights (12/13/2017)
We’re going to play the “explicitly enumerate the statlines of all the Thunder starters” game in the description because that’s always the most fun game there is. Russell “Chucksell Statpadbrook” Westbrook: 10 points, 3/17 FG, 17 statpadded rebounds, 12 assists Carmelo “Career in Shambles” Anthony: 12 points, 4/14 FG, 5 rebounds, 0 assists Paul “Traitor”…
Read MoreAron Baynes 17 Points Full Highlights (12/13/2017)
Aron Baynes AKA The Baynes Bus AKA Masturbaynestion AKA The Big Baynger AKA All of Australia pretty much took advantage of the defensive woes of his similarly-pigmented counterpart, Mason Plumlee, this entire game. If people weren’t finding him on pick and rolls for mammoth dunks or less mammoth layups (“LAMEups”), he would space out and…
