I dare you to come in his face with that.

We’d have something

Dumbtoni fault

thats like a 3rd defender on the trap.

thats all on him.

d'antoni's mistake was having derozan in down 3...and subbing embiid out for d right before didn't make much sense either

when double-teamed" offense has been working so well all year.

The Golden Boy choked. It happens.

I was LOL-ing at that sequence

.

when talking about it after the game.

he said, instead of having all that dumb shit w/ Kev Hart (to be fair, he had a few funny jokes during the intros), you line everyone up at halfcourt and the captains live draft right there and you put on the jersey of the team that drafted you right then.

that shit would be dope and entertaining.

but if the nba televised the draft, they would probably want to have it be a separate event to monetize and get viewers for

it would definitely help combat some of the deflated 3 point and dunk contests we've had recently.

of their favorite player(s) before the game. and theres prolly all typsa other all star merchandise i cant think of right now.

They all tried hard and kept it competitive throughout the game to make sure it went down to the wire. Some thoughts:

I guess Silver agreed to take all of the corniness out of the only offense game and put it into a cringeworthy intro. Pretty sure everybody watching that hated it, and I wouldn't be surprised if a whole lotta people tuned out because of it.

Speaking of corny, stop letting Reggie do big games. Everybody finds him annoying. The only good line he had tonight was the Ice Cube quote about "shut up and dribble".

Jimmy Butler is a diva. Last year he barely played because he claimed he was above the watered down competition, but this year he just rested cause he felt like it or was nursing a hangover. If he wanted to rest or planned on getting shitfaced the night before then he should have let somebody else take his place. Lou Williams was rightfully mad and Curry wasted a pick on him.

Steph had an open shot in his range with 8 seconds left but didn't want it. Then he made a bad play. If your team loses you shouldn't get to be captain next year.

Overall though, that was a very enjoyable game. Surprised this thread isn't more popping. I like the new format and the newfound competitiveness. That's how i'd imagine all those guys playing together on a Sunday at the neighborhood gym. If they tweak the selection process and cut out all corniness, next year's All Star Sunday will be even better. Now if they can just figure out All Star Saturday...

she gotta fire all her people if she rehearsed like that and they let her go do it live

She probably thought everyone was loving it until she checked the internet

to the players caring and wanting to play hard.

No.

they coulda damn well played this hard when it was EAst vs. West. In fact, they have. We've seen past all star games when the dudes were going at it in the 4th and not literally laying down in the 1st. The increased competitiveness was from Silver's mandate that they play harder and couldn't repeat last year. CP3 wanted the draft format and silver acquiesced under the condition that the players were more competitive. The league also kicked in an extra 50k for the winners.

these are the real reasons the game was better. Not because the players were simply more competitive bc of the format or bc of the charities they were playing for *rolls eyes*

that being said, if we are keeping the draft format why the hell is anything all star related east/west (ie fan voting and injury replacements) might as well make the top 10 voted in the starters regardless of conference and replace the injured players with the next best candidate irrespective of conf as well.

format you got teammates going against each other, what if Draymond goes to block KD's shot and KD falls and breaks his wrist?
