Last time I made a Jodie Meeks video, I mistakenly put “42 Points” in the title. I was thinking about that time he actually did score that many points, and being the dumbass that I am, my brain communicated the wrong commands to my typing fingers. I fixed the mistake fairly quickly, but not before…
Read MoreEric Gordon 31 Points Full Highlights (1/2/2017)
A couple years ago, I felt like Eric Gordon didn’t get the credit he deserved for being a lethal three-point shooter with the Pelicans. He was second-best in the league in the 2014-15 season, shooting almost 45 percent. And no one cared. Now, everyone cares about Eric Gordon and his routine bombing raids from deep….
Read MoreAaron Gordon 22 Points Full Highlights (1/2/2017)
I feel like Aaron Gordon should be dunking the ball way more often than he is. He had 71 bigtime slammy-whams last year, slammy-whams which were chronicled in a dunkilation at the end of the season. That was a decent amount of jammage, but it was marginally disappointing considering the caliber of dunker that he…
Read MoreBuddy Hield 20 Points Full Highlights (1/2/2017)
How has the collective Internet populace not yet come up with the nickname “Butt Buddy” for Buddy Hield? I shouldn’t have to be the one to come up with this kind of stuff. It’s so obvious! It seems like whenever I start gaining a small amount of appreciation for what the Internet is capable of,…
Read MoreWayne Ellington 18 Points Full Highlights (1/1/2017)
Wayne “Beef W” Ellington is having a career year. You might not have noticed because a career year for Wayne Ellington is not of the same caliber as a career year for a DeMar DeRozan or a James Harden. But the Waynemaker is averaging career highs across the board: points (12.4), field goal percentage (43.8%),…
Read MoreThomas Robinson 12 Points Full Highlights (1/1/2017)
If we just forget everything about “draft position” and “nba readiness coming out of college” that we currently associate with Thomas Robinson, and instead just view him as a rebounding specialist like Reggie Evans, we can see that Robinson does indeed have a place in the league. As a 10th or 12th man who sucks…
Read MoreMyles Turner 23 Points Full Highlights (1/1/2017)
It’s a new year, and with a new year comes new opportunities for Myles Turner to be ignored in favor of more hypeable young players even though he is better than most of them. I can only do so much with my video descriptions when it comes to apportioning hype to the proper players in…
Read MoreNick Young 26 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (1/1/2017)
Normally when a team with Nick Young on it sucks, Nick Young is a primary reason for the suckage. It’s been such a constant pattern throughout his career that I don’t think anyone would have expected to be broken. Here we are. The Lakers, after a decent start to the season, suck. Bad. I don’t…
Read MoreD’Angelo Russell 28 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (1/1/2017)
I don’t even know what “He ain’t even stretch doe” means. Does it mean anything? Did it mean anything before D’Angelo Russell said it, or did it gain meaning when it first saw the light of day? “Doooooooooooooe” I need to keep up with this kind of crap better. How can I be expected to…
Read MoreJames Johnson 20 Points Full Highlights (1/1/2017)
Welcome to tonight’s episode of “Classic Scrubuzzerbeaters with DownToBuck”. I’m your host, DownToBuck. The subject of tonight’s episode is James Johnson’s forgotten game-winning three-pointer on December 28, 2012. Johnson was on the Kings at that point in his career, a team he was only on for one season. He kind of was sucking that season,…
