How well does Caris LeVert have to play to permanently unseat DeMarre Carroll from the starting small forward position? He’s already averaging a similar amount of points (12 PPG) in fewer minutes, and gets way more assists. Carroll’s got that whole “gritty defensive mindset” reputation going for him, but the dude’s not even shooting 40%…

Caris LeVert 22 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (12/27/2017)
OFFICIAL THINGS THAT NEED TO HAPPEN SO THAT CARIS LEVERT CAN GET 25 ASSISTS IN A GAME LIKE RAJON RONDO JUST DID POWER RANKINGS 1. Change nickname from “Baby Durant” to “Adult Rondo” 2. Petition NBA to change the length of the game to 100 minutes 3. Stop scoring 22 points 4. Stop shooting altogether…

Astute viewers of this video may note that there is something missing from it: there are no lobs to Jarrett Allen! I basically only made this video because Caris LeVert had five assists, and I figured all of them would be alley-oops that Allen could crush through the hoop. Turns out I just wasted my…

Yes, I know that Caris LeVert had three assists in this game, and yes, I know that one of them was an alley-oop to Jarrett Allen for the sweet stuff. The thing is, three assists is never enough to include in a DownToBuck-provided highlight video unless one of the assists is a no-look behind-the-back (or…

Caris “Fat LeverT” LeVert had a nice game tonight. His second best game this season in terms of points, and his second best game this season in terms of assists. Does that make it his second best game this season in total? Yup! I thought the Nets were gonna be pure unfiltered garbago beans this…

Ha! Ha! The heavily-touted Thunder lost again! This time, to a team featuring as its best player… Caris LeVert? Rondae Hollis-Jefferson? Spencer Dinwiddie? Whichever of the three you pick, there’s no way a star-laden team like OKC should be losing to the Nets as currently constructed. This game is way more of an indictment on…

I have yet to see much out of Caris LeVert that justifies his nickname “Baby Durant”. That’s the problem with nicknames given out in high school. The different level of competition makes any fringe NBA prospect look like a god, and I’m sure LeVert flashed tons of Durant-like tendencies. Same way that Luke Babbitt was…

I was tempted not to make this video because it features more free throws (6) than made field goals (5). That’s pretty much my official benchmark for deciding if there are too many free throws in a video. The only reason I caved is because I suddenly remembered that Caris LeVert is like a mini…

The Brooklyn Nets keep winning games. Most teams as bad as they are have fully embraced the tanking lifestyle by this point in the season, but since they don’t own their own pick, they can tell their players to play hard and try to actually win games. It’s kind of refreshing, actually. And it doesn’t…

The Nets season is, mercifully, coming to an end. Better luck next year, bros, because you can just forget all about this one. Did anything go right for them at all? I guess Brook Lopez was pretty solid. And some of their young talent didn’t totally crash and burn when given more opportunity then they…
