Channing Frye 15 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2016)

“Come on guys, do I really have to do this?” Channing asked, looking at the entrance to the McDonald’s with trepidation. “We haze all the new players,” LeBron reiterated. “Trust us, we’re going easy on you. You should have seen what we made Timofey do when he got here.” “It was no big problem, drinking…

Tristan Thompson 16 Points Full Highlights (2/18/2016)

I drowsily scroll through the list of individual player performances on Basketball-Reference, searching in vain for highlight-worthy statlines. There having been just three games the previous night, I know that there will not be much for me to choose from, but even I am surprised by the paucity of decently-performing role-players. The unexpected ringing of…

Iman Shumpert 23 Points Full Highlights (1/8/2016)

Am I a bad NBA fan for not having listened to any of Iman Shumpert’s rap output? I mean, I listened to “What the Kidd Did”, penned by Jason Kidd, and it was, you know, not really all that good, even by my relatively undemanding standards of rap as a genre. Not blaming Kidd here,…

Matthew Dellavedova 20 Points Full Highlights (12/20/2015)

You guys are so lucky. Hear that part at around the one minute mark? The part where Austin Carr melodiously moans “Delly, Delly, Delly!”? Yeah, I was seriously considering looping that audio clip throughout the entire duration of the video at a low volume, but still loud enough to be unsettling. Nothing implies “total mental…

Matthew Dellavedova 17 Points Full Highlights (12/8/2015)

Down under, mate. Matthew Dellavedova is didgeridoo abo Sydney Opera House. When he kangaroo internet-censorship, the Cavaliers are Foster’s gasoline-sniffing noice. Boomerang. No one expected that he would NBL prison-colony vegemite sandwich. If Matthews, instead, Burke and Wills shrimp on the barbie mate, there would be a backlash in the form of high-cost-of-living small-tits-are-illegal Cyclone…

J.R. Smith 26 Points Full Highlights (11/23/2015)

I don’t get to make Cavaliers highlights as much as I used to, ever since they got a big three and said big three started doing all the scoring. I have to be content with the occasional Delly or J.R. Spliff highlights, maybe some James Jones thrown in on the side. Never Tristan Thompson, though….

Mo Williams 19 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (10/27/2015)

Sometimes it’s nice to see bridges, long since burned in haste, raised anew in the name of camaraderie. Now is not one of those times. There aren’t enough real beefs in the NBA, and the Mo Williams-LeBron James feud was one of the last that drama-seeking NBA fans had. Remember when Mo, before a Cavs-Heat…

J.R. Smith 19 Points/1 Lost Championship Full Highlights (6/16/2015)

DownToBuck has a bedtime. It is a very important bedtime. However, watching the last game of the Finals is more important, so I stayed up. And then J.R. Smith came along and made the game take like ten minutes longer than it needed to. Now I’m all groggy this morning. If the last minute of…

Tristan Thompson 19 Points Full Highlights (6/14/2015)

I don’t even know who the Cavs’ second-best player in the Finals is. It seems like it’s Tristan Thompson, but the words “Tristan Thompson is the second-best player on a Finals team” have kind of a blasphemous ring to them. Just typing them out makes me feel like Lucifer himself is going to pop out…
