You stare at the video title in disbelief. If you are a Pistons fan, your disbelief is multiplied tenfold. “B-b-b-but DEE TEE BEE!” you yell at your computer screen, “Ersan Ilyasova scored more than sixteen at least a d-d-dozen times while on the Pistons and you rarely made highlight v-videos for him!” It’s true, my…

Brandon Jennings 18 Points Magic Debut Full Highlights (2/19/2016)
Just call me Nostrabuckus. A mere three weeks ago, I wrote these words in a description on a Brandon Jennings video: “The time has come to find a new team for Brandon Jennings.” Not only did I successfully predict that he would be traded, I also correctly presaged his destination and got most of the…
Read MoreMario Hezonja 12 Points Full Highlights (2/10/2016)
The best part about making Mario Hezonja videos, other than the insane view counts, is that the MHIDF (Mario Hezonja Internet Defense Force) always shows up to rough up any non-Croatian commentators who doubt Hezonja’s star potential or…gasp…call him a bust. Luckily I have my own defense force (the DTBIDF) who will come to my…
Read MoreEvan Fournier 28 Points Full Highlights (2/10/2016)
The trade deadline is fast approaching, and you know what that means! Hackneyed trade proposals concocted by fans who think that the GM of every team other than their own is a blithering idiot! It also means that I have some sweet trade ideas for Evan Fournier, because he is never going to win a…
Read MoreMario Hezonja 14 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2016)
What I really wanted to do for this video was put “/1 Game-Winner” in the title. What better way to drive views to my carefully compiled highlights than with the promise of a game-winning shot by everyone’s favorite Croatian rookie? His big triple near the end of regulation looked to be the game winner until…
Read MoreEvan Fournier 21 Points Full Highlights (2/7/2016)
It’s official: Evan Fournier’s hairline is officially forsaking him. Officially. I suspected something was up when he doing that mini-ponytail thing last year. This year, he’s given up on that ugly thing, but he is doing a similar thing by slicking his hair from front to back, creating a type of combover that disguises somewhat…

Don’t tell me to chill out with the thumbnails. DownToBuck doesn’t “chill out” with anything. The thumbnails are part of the package, got it? You get the highlights, you get the description, and you get the thumbnail. Those three things are of equal importance. I am creating ART with my thumbnails, just like with the…
Read MoreMario Hezonja 16 Points Full Highlights (2/3/2016)
I figured out why Mario Hezonja has been semi-disappointing as the 5th overall pick. “Dee Tee Bee, you’ve told us a thousand times. We KNOW that Scott Skiles hates rookies, so you can shut up about it now!” Wrong. That’s what I used to think. The real reason is totally different, Skiles has nothing to…
Read MoreAaron Gordon 19 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (1/31/2016)
Everyone’s thinking it, but is anyone man enough to say it? Anyone? No? Fine. I’ll say it. Magic Johnson. Magic Johnson with ATHLETICISM. That’s what Aaron Gordon is. People might be leery of making such a comparison. And for good reason. We may be selling Gordon way short here. This revelation makes lots of things…
Read MoreMario Hezonja 17 Points Full Highlights (1/31/2016)
Alright, here we go! Finally, a game for Mario Hezonja that doesn’t fall into the “okay for a rookie”, “bad”, “didn’t play”, “disappointing”, or “purulent” categories, but instead fits squarely into the “good” category. The definitive performance of his career, to this point. And, what do you know, it’s all jumpers! The kind of shot…
