What’s gonna happen to Malcolm Brogdon AKA the Junkyard Brog AKA Brog-Dog AKA Imbroglio AKA The Cybrog now that Eric “I don’t wanna be here” Bledsoe is on the team? I envision a scenario where Brogdon gets shifted to shooting guard for many of his minutes to accommodate Eric Bledsoe’s sole true position, which is…

Malcolm Brogdon 21 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (11/3/2017)
Malcolm Brogdon received a bit of flak over winning the ROY of the Year award despite not being statistically impressive. Most of this flak came from 76ers fans who were understandably miffed that their rookies got no recognition. Other sources of flak included, well, basically no one else because most people agreed that his contributions…
Read MoreTony Snell 17 Points Full Highlights (11/1/2017)
Fun fact: Tony Snell is currently leading the league in True Shooting Percentage at .725, and in Effective Field Goal Percentage at .708. Now, I don’t know what either of those numbers mean, but I think they’re the kind of numbers where being higher is better. So this looks really good for Snell. Best player…
Read MoreMalcolm Brogdon 20 Points Full Highlights (11/1/2017)
Another solid game for Malcolm Brogdon. That’s what he is. Solid. Super solid. Solidity comprises a full 50% of his body mass. Want another adjective? Workmanlike. But that has some connotations I don’t want to get into, so we’re gonna stick with solid as the primary adjective to describe Junkyard Brog. I really like this…
Read MoreKhris Middleton Career High 43 Points Full Highlights (11/1/2017)
It’s not fair. Khris “Khash Money Deuces” Middleton has been not very good most of the season, but puts up an insane 43 points. Meanwhile, Giannis Antetokounmpo, who has been very good most of the season, gets in foul trouble and contributes far below his norm. Also Malik Monk went off which DownToBuck is NOT…
Read MoreKhris Middleton 27 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (10/29/2017)
I spent pretty much the whole offseason telling anyone who would listen, and also a lot of people who wouldn’t, about how Khris Middleton was one of the best second bananas in the whole Eastern Conference. I was dedicated. I sent out mass letters to everyone in my state, I set up a call center…
Read MoreTony Snell 17 Points Full Highlights (10/21/2017)
OFFICIAL ATTRIBUTES OF TONY SNELL POWER RANKINGS 1. He’s not Michael Carter-Williams 2. He shoots three-pointers really well 3. If he’s overpaid, it’s only by a little bit 4. He allegedly plays defense (I personally don’t care if he plays defense or not) 1. He’s not Michael Carter-Williams 5. He’s low-usage so he fits in…
Read MoreMalcolm Brogdon 19 Points Full Highlights (10/18/2017)
Malcolm Brogdon won ROY of the Year solely by having games exactly like this the entire season. Well, not exactly: he only scored more than the 19 he had tonight two times in his rookie campaign. But my point still stands. He just went out there, played solid basketball, left no one particularly impressed, and…
Read MoreGiannis Antetokounmpo All 194 Dunks Full Highlights (2016-17 Season Dunkilation)
“That was the best meal I’ve had in forever!” Rachel said happily as she finished up her plate of chicken Parmigiana. “Glad you liking it,” Giannis said humbly. It was just an Italian place near his house that Yelp had recommended. He had picked it because it was labeled “$$” on that site, meaning that…
Read MoreThon Maker All 83 Field Goals Full Highlights (2016-17 Season Bucketilation)
Thon Maker, at this particular moment, was very thankful for the extremely dark tone of his skin. His trip to Perth was not a secret, but his middle-of-the-night excursion to the campus of his former high school, Aranmore Catholic College, was very secret indeed. As long as he stayed outside the range of the occasional…
