One of the storylines I don’t think I’ve seen anyone bring up yet is Bismack Biyombo’s utterly unexpected transformation into a competent scorer. When he started his career, he was one of the lowest scorers, per minute, in the league. In the 2012-13 season, he scored 6 points per 36, a ridiculously low amount. It…

Devonte’ Graham 18 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (11/23/2019)
OFFICIAL THINGS THAT DEVONTE’ GRAHAM IS IN THE TOP TEN OF POWER RANKINGS 1. Made three-pointers. Devonte’ Graham is currently second at 60, behind Harden’s 77. KAT is close on Graham’s heels with 57. What bizarre times we live in. 2. Assists. Graham is in fifth place with 120, behind LeBron, Doncic, Trae Young, and…
Read MoreTerry Rozier 28 Points Full Highlights (11/23/2019)
I am aware that Terry Rozier had five assists in this game, ostensibly a high enough assist total for me to include the assists in this video. I am also aware that one of these assists was an alley-oop to Malik Monk. These are all things that I am fully aware of. DownToBuck is nothing…
Read MoreMarvin Williams 21 Points Full Highlights (11/23/2019)
When you see the words “Marvin Williams 21 Points”, the first thing that comes to your mind should be “7 threes”. Anyone with any amount of experience with W-Marv will know that his preferred method of scoring is by shooting-threes, and that that’s the only way he can reliably score in the first place. You…
Read MoreDevonte’ Graham 19 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (11/22/2019)
Michael Jordan must be losing it right now. At least, in my personal Charlotte Hornets lore, he’s losing it. Because, in that lore, Terry Rozier was hand-picked by MJ to be the most courageous tank commander that the NBA has ever seen. Rozier was supposed to play forty MPG per game, take twenty shots per…
Read MoreMiles Bridges Career High 31 Points Full Highlights (11/22/2019)
We’re pretty far into the season already! How time flies. Just a few weeks ago, I was thinking this about the Hornets: “They’re totally building around Miles Bridges, aren’t they?” But that was a few weeks ago, and I’m not thinking such things anymore. In my defense, it totally seemed, before the games actually started,…
Read MoreP.J. Washington 19 Points Full Highlights (11/16/2019)
P.J. Washington is a surprisingly dunk-prone player, with 23 dunks as of the time of this writing. He is more prone to dunk the basketball than pretty much anyone his size in the NBA; the only other comparable dunker is Jabari Parker (who has way more dunks, just another illustration of how much of a…
Read MoreDevonte’ Graham 29 Points/9 Threes/1 Game-Winner Full Highlights (11/16/2019)
Two games, two game-winners in a row for the Charlotte Hornets. The first one by Malik Monk, this one by Devonte’ Graham. The Hornets might not actually be a good team, but they sure know how to get it done in clutch situations this year. I don’t think the Charlotte faithful know how to react;…
Read MoreDevonte’ Graham 18 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (11/15/2019)
Devonte’ Graham might have gotten the double-double, and the Hornets might have gotten the win, but Graham unfortunately entered distinguished territory (and not the good kind of distinguished) by requiring 23 shots to score eighteen points in this game. Scoring fewer points than you take shots is bad enough. To have that difference be so…
Read MoreMalik Monk 19 Points/1 Game-Winner Full Highlights (11/15/2019)
I am issuing a warning right now: if anyone comments “top 10 pictures taken before disaster”, referencing the thumbnail of this video, I will not hesitate use my constitutionally-guaranteed right to delete your YouTube account. I want to get that out of the way right now. The founding fathers put that provision in the constitution…
