It’s well known that fans from Philadelphia are the worst in the league. From throwing batteries at opposing players to puking on little girls to pretending that a meat-and-cheese sandwich is in some way a unique and admirable cultural symbol, they have proven that they have no respect for the purity of sports or its…

Carl Landry 22 Points Full Highlights (3/27/2016)
Carl Landry is a scoring machine. People don’t realize it, but he is. He has been for his entire career. Somehow, at age 32, his per-36 numbers in Philly exceed anything he did in his younger days, leading me to believe that he is actually aging in reverse. I mean, just look at the facts….

Yes. YES. This is what DownToBuck wants. This is what DownToBuck CRAVES. Carl Landry getting 25 minutes or so off the bench (or starting), to give him ample time to do the things that he does. That is what DownToBuck has been clamoring for, and now his cried have been heeded. 26 points, over a…

Previously I had thought that you needed to accomplish something major before you did a biceps-flexing pose. It turns out I was mistaken! As Carl Landry illustrates, even minor successes can be celebrated in this manner. For example, if you rip away a rebound from somebody, then do a drop-step and elevate six inches off…

Once upon a time, in a land known as Sacramento, Carl Landry would score 19 points or more with regularity. But then he got traded to the Hornets and has been a bench player ever since. If I was Landry I would try to get on a team that needs a good power forward, because…
