Patty Mills, driving home from another successful practice, looked around curiously. He had been diverted from his normal route home by detours, and was traveling through a commercial area that he had never had occasion to visit. Suddenly, a large sign ahead grabbed all of his attention. It read: “BED BATH & BEYOND” Unable to…

Boris Diaw 21 Points Full Highlights (1/24/2014)
Screw Boris Diaw. He pretty much quit on the Bobcats so that he could get waived, and then he signs with the Spurs and suddenly starts caring again? You’re a paid professional, Boris. There’s a reason that the general public thinks that NBA players are a bunch of lazy, overpaid malcontents. Fatass.
Read MoreNando De Colo 13 Points/3 Threes Full Highlights (1/19/2014)
Nando De Colo is the next Manu Ginobili. I only say this because he plays for the Spurs, and the Spurs turn every weird-looking foreigner into a good player. We actually don’t have a good idea of how good Nando is, since he never gets to play, but it’s safe to say that he will…
Read MoreMatt Bonner 14 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (1/12/2014)
Gregg Popovich is widely considered to be one of the best coaches in the NBA. But he is not free from criticism. One of the points of emphasis for his detractors was his seemingly misplaced confidence in the abilities of Matt Bonner. Bonner is not a bad player, but his minutes were too high for…
Read MoreDanny Green 22 Points Full Highlights (12/26/2013)
Danny Green surely has been the downfall of many a fantasy team this year. Not mine, luckily, since I don’t do that crap, but I bet I can find many disappointed owners who needed his threes. Remember, never put all your eggs in one basket. That and other wisdom-filled nuggets can be found in my…
Read MoreAron Baynes Career High 14 Points Full Highlights (12/10/2013)
The Spurs’ system makes people look good. That is a well known fact. Hell, it makes Tiago Splitter look like one of the best centers in the league, stat-wise. And we all know that he isn’t. On any other team he would be average at best. So of course it makes sense that Aron Baynes…
Read MoreKawhi Leonard 18 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (12/7/2013)
Kawhi Leonard sat alone in the corner of the locker room, towel draped over his head, looking concernedly at the tablet in his hands. On the screen was a graph with a bunch of reds and greens, and some numbers that, while looking indiscernible, apparently made perfect since to Kawhi. “Dammit, I can’t believe this…
Read MoreMarco Belinelli 19 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (11/29/2013)
My phone rang. Taking a break from splitting and splicing clips of Mirza Teletovic, I answered. “Mr. ToBuck speaking.” A nervous-sounding Italian man was on the other end. “DTB, this is Marco,” he started. As soon as he said his name, I knew what he was after. “I understand you have a video of me…
Read MoreManu Ginobili 16 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (11/25/2013)
Every year I think to myself “This is the year the Spurs will finally stop being good. Their core is a year older and there’s no way they can keep it going.”, and every year I’m made to look like a fool. They were supposed to come back from choking away the championship looking like…
Read MoreDanny Green 19 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (11/6/2013)
Danny Green was the darling of last year’s finals. He was shooting tons of threes, making tons of threes, setting records, blocking LeBron’s crap, it was fun times. Then he sucked in the last two games of the series and the Spurs lost. But it’s not really Danny’s fault. He’s just a role player. Not…
