https://youtu.be/UDbC_FaZoe0 The world-renowned DownToBuck YouTube channel is known far and wide as a haven for scrubs and role-players. Given that fact, one must question the wisdom of the decision to continue featuring Chris Boucher on such a channel. After all, Boucher has now had THREE thirty-point games this season, putting into doubt his status as…

https://youtu.be/XE-seQ2vIA8 If you went back in time and told me, the DownToBuck that existed four years go, that the skinny dude who played exactly one minute for the Warriors in the 2017-18 season as a 25-year-old rookie would eventually be scoring 38 points in a sanctioned NBA contest, I would have laughed in your face…

https://youtu.be/JpRZmiw4mJI Now that Norman “Bucks Killer” Powell is officially off my channel because he’s averaging like 19 PPG per game and constantly reminds me of Greivis Vasquez simply by existing, I’m going to have to lean heavily on Chris Boucher to provide highlights for Raptors players going forward. And I have to say, given the…

https://youtu.be/3ZdFERZXhwk I know that Nick Nurse is a championship-winning coach and that he is generally well-regarded among learned NBA scholars (a group which I have tried to force myself into, to no avail), but the fact that he seems so reluctant to use Chris Boucher to his full effect is, in my opinion a major…

https://youtu.be/JsYhZxz-r1c I don’t blame the Raptors for maybe not being as good as maybe some people (not me) maybe thought they should be. Maybe. Having to play all your “home” games in Tampa, and not being able to actually live in your actual residence in Toronto, that’s gotta be tough. Living out of a hotel…

https://youtu.be/lY3LriybLjc We’re almost a week into the season, and the Raptors have yet to win a game. I’m not implying that they’ll NEVER win a game, obviously they’re not going to pull a Detroit Lions and just lose for a whole season, but I am implying that they’ll probably only win 4 or 5 games…

I understand that Marc Gasol brings “intangible” things to the game of basketball. He’s savvy, he knows how to win, he utterly shuts down Joel Embiid whenver they match up (that’s more of a “tangible” than an “intangible” but whatever), he provides leadership on the court, blah blah blah, who cares? Marc Gasol might have…

So we were all robbed of those glorious early-to-mid April games where all the starters are resting up for the playoffs and all the scrubs on the ends of benches, and even some new scrubs signed to fresh new ten-day contracts, are thrown onto the court at once to duke it out for our entertainment….

Who even wants Marc Gasol to come back? Nobody besides Marc himself and maybe his brother Pau (and their third brother who never made it to the league, Andreas or something). Other than that, I don’t know why you would want that old dude to come back to the court and be old when you…

https://youtu.be/EpROmySEKtc Rhetorical question of the day: is Chris “The BoucheBag” Boucher, right now, better than Pascal “Mild P” Siakam? Screw it, remove the “rhetorical” part. I’m just straight up asking the question, even though I, you, and my tubby little kitty Japurri Purrker all know full well what the answer is. Actually, screw it, remove…
