Carmelo Anthony packed up his things, alone in the locker room, having fielded the last of the reporters’ questions. They had wanted to talk to Arron Afflalo about his excellent game tonight; but he was nowhere to be found. Must have left early, Carmelo thought as he slung his bag over his shoulder. Can’t blame…

Lance Thomas 24 Points Full Highlights (12/21/2015)
DownToBuck is always striving to provide the best possible highlight experience for fans. To that end, I have tried something new for this video. To paint a clearer picture of how a given player is performing, I am going to try showing all of their shot attempts, not just the ones they make. In this…
Read MoreDerrick Williams 17 Points Full Highlights (12/18/2015)
“Hey Arron, check out this new track I’m working on.” Arron Afflalo looked across the aisle of the bus to see Derrick Williams hard at work on his laptop. “That’s cool man, I’m good,” he answered. He had heard rumors around the league about Derrick and his odd fondness for certain types of electronic music….
Read MoreKyle O’Quinn 14 Points Full Highlights (12/12/2015)
Kyle “The Irish Black Santa” O’Quinn would normally have to score more than fourteen points to be honored with a highlight video. However, it is unclear to me whether he will be able to top this performance while wearing a Knicks uniform. With the break-out of Kristaps Porzingis and the unfortunate presences of Kevin Seraphin…
Read MoreKristaps Porzingis 28 Points Full Highlights (12/7/2015)
A lot has been made of Kristaps Porzingis’ first matchup with Dirk Nowitzki. It’s understandable; after Rik Smits, the most common pre-draft comparison for Kristaps was, in fact, Dirk. Well, maybe he was the third most common comparison after Rik and Chuck Nevitt. Hard to keep track of that sort of stuff. Anyway, yeah, they’re…
Read MoreKristaps Porzingis 19 Points Full Highlights (12/4/2015)
If I’m Carmelo Anthony, I’m freaking out right now. In only a month, the Knicks have gone from “Melo’s Team” to “Kristaps Kristaps OMG Porzingod WOW WOW WOW Latvia’s Team”. Put another way, there are still lots and lots of people who remain unhyped about Carmelo. There are no such people when it comes to…
Read MoreKristaps Porzingis 17 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (12/2/2015)
If you couldn’t tell from my recently uploaded October/November dunkilation, I am officially on the Kristaps Porzingis bandwagon. I don’t know how any NBA fan couldn’t be. A hypothetical person who could hypothetically find it within themselves to hypothetically not root for a three-point shooting, putback dunking, beanpole rookie from Latvia would hypothetically be a…
Read MoreArron Afflalo 31 Points Full Highlights (11/29/2015)
I will never forgive the NBA for not making Arron Afflalo an All-Star during the 2013-14 season. Never. Ever. He was averaging like 20 points a game! You knew, they knew, he knew, his mom knew, everybody knew that he was never going to approach that kind of production ever again. Thanks to the cruel…
Read MoreKristaps Porzingis 20 Points Full* Highlights (11/29/2015)
Another good game for Kristaps Porzingis. I don’t even get that excited anymore. At this point, I’d way rather see a legit good performance out of Sasha Vujacic than yet another one out of the Latvian. I’ve developed tolerances like that for a lot of fun-to-watch players. The worrying thing is how quickly I developed…
Read MoreKristaps Porzingis 20 Points Full Highlights (11/23/2015)
When was the last time this many lottery-picked bigmen looked so legit during their rookie seasons? The 2012 draft was okay, since it had both AD’s, but it also had Thomas Robison, which cancels that out. After doing a bit of research, I suddenly don’t feel like going back very far in these drafts, seeing…
