Serge Ibaka 15 Points Full Highlights (6/10/2019)

There are many talking points that I could bring up in this description. Among them: -Kevin Durant’s Achilles injury -Raptors fans’ response to Kevin Durant’s Achilles injury -Serge Ibaka’s role in the play where Kevin Durant injured his Achilles -The Warriors now having an outside chance to win this series -The fact that Warriors fans…

Serge Ibaka 20 Points Full Highlights (6/7/2019)

One of the main things that Serge Ibaka brings to the table in this series against the Warriors is bigness. He’s just a big dude at the power forward position, and the Warriors have very few big dudes to match up with him. Not only that, but the Warriors’ bigs are usually playing center because…

Serge Ibaka 17 Points Full Highlights (5/21/2019)

It’s a shame that a channel with the name “DownToBuck” is forced to do endless highlights of Raptors role-players kicking the Bucks’ booty. I’ve had my share of fun this series, with George Hill and Ersan Ilyasova and Brook Lopez, but that fun is over now. This game was the game where all the Raptors’…

Serge Ibaka 17 Points Full Highlights (5/12/2019)

Serge “Ibaka Gaijin” Ibaka was literally the only Raptor aside from Kawhi Leonard to show up on offense this game. Kawhi had 41 points, including the game-winner as time elapsed, but he had to take 39 shots because his teammates were being useless bumnuggets. Ibaka had a good game, scoring 17 on ten attempts, but…

Serge Ibaka 23 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (4/3/2019)

I am growing concerned that people seemingly care more about Serge Ibaka the YouTube celebrity chef than Serge Ibaka the NBA basketball player. I say “seemingly”, but the YouTube view counts don’t lie: he’s easily pulling in hundreds of thousands of views for his cooking stuff, while the best non-fight highlights of his, by the…

Serge Ibaka 23 Points Full Highlights (3/30/2019)

I don’t get the sense that Raptors fans have been very happy with Serge Ibaka lately. I won’t pretend to know why that would be (he hasn’t been scoring a whole ton lately, I will say), but I will pretent know that fanbases will always find something to complain about. Doesn’t matter if the team…

Serge Ibaka 22 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2019)

I would consider this a VINTAGE performance from Serge “Ibaka Gaijin” Ibaka. No free throws, no three-pointers, just dunks, hooks, and midrange jimbos. Eleven field goals made for twenty-two points, a mathematical cleanliness that is basketball’s analogue to the Golden Ratio. Ibaka even showed committment to the cause by being awarded two free throws, but…

Serge Ibaka 25 Points Full Highlights (1/5/2019)

Serge Ibaka always torches the Bucks, and it always happens the same way: by him shooting a bunch of barely contested midrange jumpers. Especially this season, since the Bucks’ new defensive strategy is to basically let teams shoot as many of those as they want. Over time, I guess, the theory is that the Bucks’…

Serge Ibaka 25 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (12/11/2018)

It has become evident to me that the Serge Ibaka/Fred VanVleet pick and pop is unstoppable. Completely unstoppable. That’s my OFFICIAL DTB DECLARATION. Ibaka is currently shooting an incredible 73% on two-point jumpers longer than sixteen feet, meaning that the Raptors should run this play nonstop until one of two things happens: a.) Ibaka stops…
