Fred VanVleet 30 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (8/17/2020)

It’s a widely-known fact that Fred VanVleet ascended into a new level of basketball-playing beastdom when his son, Fred VanVleet Jr., was born into the world. But that was just a temporary boost. The glow of being a new dad doesn’t last forever (I don’t have personal experience with this, but I asked my dad…

Stanley Johnson 23 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (8/14/2020)

Stanley Johnson resurrected himself from the dead (actually the very end of the Raptors bench – but being dead is basically the same thing) in the game before this with a “game-winner” against the Philly Cheesesteaks. I put “game-winner” in quotes because there were still five seconds left in the game at the time he…

Paul Watson Career High 22 Points Full Highlights (8/14/2020)

Raptors fans will be exceedingly happy to tell you all about this guy, this “Paul Watson”. That’s what Raptors fans live for: to tell other fanbases how good and sweet and amazing their young players are due to their team’s high-class developmental system. They’ll talk for hours about it, nonstop. Just endless jabbering about how…

Chris Boucher 19 Points/4 Blocks Full Highlights (8/12/2020)

I understand that Marc Gasol brings “intangible” things to the game of basketball. He’s savvy, he knows how to win, he utterly shuts down Joel Embiid whenver they match up (that’s more of a “tangible” than an “intangible” but whatever), he provides leadership on the court, blah blah blah, who cares? Marc Gasol might have…

Norman Powell 21 Points Full Highlights (8/10/2020)

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…

Chris Boucher 25 Points Full Highlights (8/10/2020)

So we were all robbed of those glorious early-to-mid April games where all the starters are resting up for the playoffs and all the scrubs on the ends of benches, and even some new scrubs signed to fresh new ten-day contracts, are thrown onto the court at once to duke it out for our entertainment….

Matt Thomas 22 Points Full Highlights (8/10/2020)

Just four days ago I wrote these words which I have now come to deeply regret: “Tyler Herro is OFFICIALLY DownToBuck’s preferred unpigmented Wisconsin-born Wisconsin-raised male NBA player.” Can you believe that garbage actually came out of my mouth? I want to believe that I was forced at gunpoint by Tyler Herro-aligned cronies to write…

Fred VanVleet 21 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (8/5/2020)

With every good game that Fred VanVleet adds to his already impressive resume, the closer he gets to securing “the bag”. “The bag” is a mythical concept which represents large amounts of money, way more than would fit into a single bag even if it was all in hundred dollar bills. “The bag” is what…

Fred VanVleet Career High 36 Points Full Highlights (8/3/2020)

Check out these choice quotes from my latest Terrence Ross highlight video: “My absolute burning hatred for free throws.” “…My highlight videos are repeatedly getting ruined by players and their stupid tendency to get fouled and shoot free throws.” “…Some way to play the game of basketball without free-throws.” And yet, here I am again,…

OG Anunoby 23 Points Full Highlights (8/1/2020)

I’ve been going back and forth on the issue this season, buffeted as I am by the howling winds of hype, but this game has really clarified things for me: OG Anunoby is definitely, 100 percent, for sure the next Kawhi Leonard in Toronto. No doubt about it. Forget about Terence Davis. Norman Powell? Forget…
