Carl Landry is a scoring machine. People don’t realize it, but he is. He has been for his entire career. Somehow, at age 32, his per-36 numbers in Philly exceed anything he did in his younger days, leading me to believe that he is actually aging in reverse. I mean, just look at the facts….

Ish Smith 20 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (3/27/2016)
I have not been as faithful in my compilation of Ish Smith highlights as I, were I a perfect person, should have been. I claim to love spotlighting the un-spotlit, to enjoy nothing more than to showcase the unshowcased or unshowcasable. I still like to think that I remain true to my channel’s stated goals….

Yes. YES. This is what DownToBuck wants. This is what DownToBuck CRAVES. Carl Landry getting 25 minutes or so off the bench (or starting), to give him ample time to do the things that he does. That is what DownToBuck has been clamoring for, and now his cried have been heeded. 26 points, over a…
Read MoreNik Stauskas Career High 23 Points Full Highlights (3/18/2016)
Finally, a game for Nik Stauskas that falls into the “actually good” category. I was beginning to wonder if it would ever happen. He’d had a bunch of “okay” games, which gave me hope, but even playing for the rotten 76ers didn’t elevate his play enough for him to ever score 20. Until now. Anticlimactic,…

“Put ‘Career High’ in the title you stubborn bastard. Do you think I’m playing around here? Just do it!”, Adam Silver yells at me through our forced Skype chat, his face contorted with rage. “I defy you!”, I respond coolly, my face not betraying my inner fear. “DO IT!” “I shall always defy you!” “Defiance…

This is what I expect out of Carl Landry. Eighteen point games on a regular, consistent basis. All he needs is twenty or twenty-five minutes to do his damage and then his old man body can take a breather on the pine while the younguns undo all the good work he did on the court….
Read MoreCarl Landry 18 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2016)
Is it wrong to think that Carl Landry could put up 20 and 10 if he were simply put in the right situation? Him and J.J. Hickson. 20 points and 10 rebounds per night, made possible by playing on a team that is the perfect fit. I don’t think that’s unreasonable. The 76ers are, apparently,…
Read MoreIsh Smith 26 Points Full Highlights (3/4/2016)
Since joining the 76ers, Ish Smith has been one of the premiere point guard chuckers in the league. He is lagging behind only known scoring machines like Curry (duh), Lillard, Westbrook, and Irving. Meanwhile, he’s about neck-and-neck with chuckmaster supreme Derrick Rose. One of these things is not like the other. Hint: Ish Smith is…
Read MoreRobert Covington 25 Points Full Highlights (3/4/2016)
I want to see Robert “English Nobility” Covington play in a good situation. That’s what I want to see. Right now he is probably a bottom-five starting SF in the league (Alonzo Gee is definitely worse at least), but that’s more due to the garbage that surrounds him than due to any fault of his…
