If there’s any game development companies out there reading the video descriptions on my NBA highlight videos, I’ve got a brand-new video game idea to pitch to you: Tony Parker’s Pro Parkour. It’s like Tony Hawks’ Pro Skater but instead of Tony Hawk and skateboarding, it’s Tony Parker and parkour. I don’t know if Tony…

Miles Bridges 14 Points Full Highlights (2/22/2019)
So apparently Miles Bridges was in the dunk contest. I don’t know how he did because I don’t watch the dunk contest and I don’t care about the dunk contest. In-game dunks are just way better than contrived dunks with props. That’s not an unpopular opinion, but I take it one step further by purposely…
Read MoreNicolas Batum 20 Points Full Highlights (2/22/2019)
Bad news for Hornets fans: Nicolas Batum is still getting paid 75 million over the next three years (this year included, and the last year is a player option but why the heck wouldn’t he take it), and he seems to have decided that he doesn’t want to score the ball anymore. Good news for…
Read MoreJeremy Lamb 24 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (2/9/2019)
Jeremy Lamb’s 24th point came with 9 minutes to go in the third quarter. After that point, the only thing he did was try and pretend he was a point guard (here’s a hint Germy: you’re not) and pick up 6 stupid assists. It’s great that players sometimes try to add things to their game,…
Read MoreMarvin Williams 27 Points Full Highlights (2/9/2019)
You know it’s a bad sign for the rest of the night when the first video that DownToBuck uploads, out of all the available possible performances, is Marvin Williams. Like, under normal circumstances, any W-Marv video should be able to wait until at least the fifth or sixth uploadment of the night. Sorry everybody, but…
Read MoreMiles Bridges 20 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2019)
With all these bad teams shuffling players around like so many deck chairs on the Titanic, the Hornets… did nothing. Well, almost nothing. They bought out Marvin Williams so he could sign with the Bucks (note: I would literally rather have Dragan Bender [who was waived to make space] than Williams, I don’t care how…
Read MoreJeremy Lamb 22 Points Full Highlights (2/5/2019)
Jeremy Lamb has been playing pretty well as a starter this season. For a long time I maintained that he could be the Hornets’ second option behind Kemba Walker, and guess what? I was right. He might be one of the least-potent “second options” in the league, but it’s not a total disaster, and the…
Read MoreMalik Monk 20 Points Full Highlights (2/1/2019)
I don’t even know exactly what happened at the end of this Hornets-Grizzlies game, some bad stuff involving the refs, but why do Grizzlies fans care? They want to be losing at this point, so is it so bad that the refs blatantly cost them the game? No. It isn’t. Under a utilitarian model of…
Read MoreBismack Biyombo 11 Points/5 Blocks Full Highlights (1/19/2019)
Did we ever figure out if Bismack Biyombo was actually the age he said he was when he was drafted? Because I remember there were some murmurings that he wasn’t actually 18 during that Nike showcase game or whatever where he blocked a ton of shots. Maybe he was 19. Or 20! I think the…
Read MoreMiles Bridges 15 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (1/17/2019)
Behold: Miles Bridges’ first three-pointer in almost a month! He started off surprisingly good from deep, with an early 3-of-3-from-3 performance allowing him to keep a good percentage for a long time because of his low volume. Lately, though, he’s been bricking. Which is what everyone thought he was going to do as a rookie…
