https://youtu.be/O9l7zJJumpY If Norman Powell doesn’t watch out, he’s going to find himself evicted from DownToBuck’s vaunted Hall of Scrubs onto the cold, unforgiving streets of general NBA highlightdom, where the view counts may be bigger but camaraderie and warmth are absent. It’s not a decision I take lightly, the banishment of a longtime channel fixture,…

https://youtu.be/geKVnpwY1CU “Dear Diary, Today we played the Bucks again. I did okay. I scored 29 points, which isn’t as many as I wanted but still pretty good.

With this game, Norman Powell raised his shooting percentage in the Raptors’ first-round series against the Nets to a blistering 60.5%. That’s pretty nuts for a guard-sized player, and that’s EVEN MORE NUTS for a player who has been deemed unworthy of a starting role on his team. He also averaged 17.5 PPG per game…

Norman Powell underwent an amazing transformation this season. He went from a “Bucks Killer” who would play exceptionally well against the Bucks and so-so against other teams, to an “Everyone Killer” who plays well against everybody. This is like sitting in your garden watching a caterpillar turn into a butterfly, but it’s actually way more…

What you see here is an example of the “mercy rule”. It is a 100% verified scientific fact that Norman Powell is a 100% certified Bucks Killer. He kills the Bucks all the time. They traded him for poopoo and now he hates them and he will hate them until last of his neurons flickers…

Since returning from injury, Norman Powell has been on a tear, averaging 28 points over the last 5 games. You could look at the last 5 games for a lot of the stars in the league, and I bet a lot of them aren’t averaging even close to that. That’s my way of saying that…
