Fred VanVleet 22 Points Full Highlights (2/12/2020)

I predict that this video will get fewer views (possible as few as zero) on account of Raptors fans being way too sad after having their precious 15-game winning streak snapped to watch this. The entire nation of Canada is in a state of mourning. Why relive painful memories of the past, as would happen…

Serge Ibaka 28 Points Full Highlights (2/12/2020)

Despite Serge Ibaka’s heroic 28-point performance (a performance that featured more points than ANY he had during his time in OKC, by the way), the Raptors lost, ending their winning streak at 15 games. Good. I’m going to sound like a butthurt Bucks fan, and maybe I am a little butthurt, but they (and their…

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson 21 Points Full Highlights (2/10/2020)

During his time in Brooklyn, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (hereafter shortened to RHJ [pronounced “ree-haj”] for brevity) slowly worked on incorporating a funky midrange game into his repertoire. It looked totally awful, the most hideous jumper this side of Giannis, but it was fun. I might have dissed it a bunch at the time, but that was…

OG Anunoby Career High 25 Points Full Highlights (2/10/2020)

OG Anunoby is playing pretty well this season, but he isn’t exactly a perfect replacement for Kawhi Leonard. I know that Raptors fans never expected him to be, but from this ignorant outsider’s perspective, SOMEBODY needs to be the Kawhi replacement. Here are the ways that Anunoby fails to live up to the task: -Midrange…

Fred VanVleet 29 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (2/8/2020)

I already regretted making a vid for Fred VanVleet’s 20 and 7 performance last game, but now I REALLY regret it. Because there is not a single person on earth who would rather watch that video than this, objectively superior, video. It is totally obsolete now. Before this game, it sucked. Now it sucks AND…

Terence Davis 20 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2020)

Terence Davis should be a reminder to all GM’s in the league (minus Masai Ujiri, who already knows this) that NBA-caliber talent exists outside of the draft and outside the top levels of foreign leagues. Always do your due diligence on these dudes and you might uncover a hidden gem as the Raptors did with…

Matt Thomas 15 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2020)

Before this game, Matt Thomas had not made a layup in his NBA career. That sounds so outrageous that you almost can’t believe it, but, unless basketball-reference is lying to me about the nature of his shots this season, you’d better start believing soon, because I’m telling the god-damn truth. That fact becomes slightly less…

Fred VanVleet 20 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (2/7/2020)

Looking back on it, with the benefit of the perfect and clear vision of hindsight, I probably shouldn’t have made this video. 7 assists is right in line with Fred VanVleet’s season average, and 20 points is only slightly higher than his PPG per game average of 18. DownToBuck doesn’t deal in mediocre performances. If…

Serge Ibaka 22 Points Full Highlights (2/7/2020)

Serge Ibaka, in his 11th season, is putting up more PPG per game than he ever has. It feels like he should be super old at this point, but he’s only 30, so the fact that he is scoring at a career-high rate is not wholly surprising. 30 is still considered by most to be…
