Lol@Mathurin, what a fucking dickhead. Treating the Rising Stars game like he's The 2nd coming of Mike. Mouthing off and going forehead to forehead. Sure he hit the game winning shot but ffs mate it's the Junior Boys game not the Allstar game. Plus missing dunks and even worse clanging both free throws after he's just bet a bloke he'll make them both to win the game. Prize twat. "Prize twat." Spot fucken on.

All Star Weekend. Every blinged-out, tarted-up showpony and his dog is out in FULL FORCE.
Kenny Smith and Reggie Miller on the comms. NBA has to do better. Just insufferable bores who are so thick and self absorbed they seem to be pretty much halfway to dementia. Listening to them and it's like a Battle to The Bottom of Numbskull Ravine. Old men that should be put out to pasture
"Skills Challenge" LOL, a laughably easy pedestrian pisstake. Players jogging downcourt to make a layup well whoop de fucking doo. It should be a pair going at the same time, first to finish wins. Shoulder checks: OK. Then they'd pick up the goddamn pace.
3-pt contest is always the best part of the weekend I reckon. The LED floor is fantastic too. At one stage they pushed a button and it was instantly the Celtics Garden parquet floor. Amazeballs technology
The woman shooter mustve given Steph a fright. 26 she chucked in ffs. 26. Same score as the 3 blokes who qualified for the mens final. Bird won once with only 17. Junior girl bounceballers watching at home mustve goddamn exploded with pride. Fuck yeah we can do it too cuntz

I haven't watched an all-star weekend in decades. The three-point contest was always interesting. I was just reading about that contest between Sabrina Ionescu and Steph Curry. I didn't know it was happening or I would have watched it. She is damn good, and I would not bet against her in a rematch.
Miller and Smith are on auto-pilot, which according to Vonnegut's "Timequake" will end when free will kicks in again. I would not want to be around those two when free will kicks in. No fucken way.

So Doc Rivers may not be the answer in Milwaukee. Hard to say, but so far it has been tough to see any improvement anywhere on the floor. P.J. Tucker would have been a perfect fit on that team. Of course, every league executive is going to make sure that NEVER happens. The league gets a bit more predictable each day.

I haven't watched an all-star weekend in decades. Wise man. I switched it off in the 3rd quarter. A debacle, insulting to everyone, esp the fans. Players just walking around. Rebounder walks up court, launches 3, rinse repeat. One team had 100 pts.............. at halftime.They should rope in the previous years Defensive Player Of The Year, put him in a different coloured bib and tell him to fuck everyone's shit up. I guess if they actually did play defense like everyone wants them to and someone gets injured from it then all hell would break loose. Team owners sueing the NBA for damaging their "assets" or something.

I would hope that the owners give the players an incentive, which for the best players on good teams would be homecourt advantage in the NBA Finals. Other than that, I can't see any point of having the game at all.

So either the Western Conference champion or the Eastern Conference champion, regardless of record, would host the NBA Finals depending on who has won the all-star game.

Oooh that is a very spicy idea. But being the preening divas these guys are wouldnt it be open to shenanigans? Although OTOH I think the trade deadline has passed by the All Star game? Maybe some spiteful cunt could torpedo an old team he was traded from haha

Jacque Vaughn got a contract extension at last season's All-Star break, and, now, he has been fired in a season that has seen Simmons, his best defender, not able to play regularly. Fucken hell. I like Jacque Vaughn. I like Ben Simmons. I was looking forward to what was coming. Better to build up more in the draft than get the 10th seed in the play-in. Management is dreaming. Fucken hell.

they gotta look at any option to fix the All Star Game. not sure the NBA will be too pleased that their mega-cool guy billion dollar showcase, televised worldwide, has become a laughing stock. Esp in this fickle viral age. some other ideas I've seen around the traps - play the game after NBA Finals
- offer more $$$ to the lethargic showpony posers
- 3 on 3 teams
- pick players strictly by position, 2 guards, 2 forwards and a centre
- players from losing team get docked points/votes from next years voting. Instead of having a massive cry when you dont get in then rocking up all too kool 4 skool-like, show youre actually pleased to be there ffs
- playground rules; you score, you keep the ball. Then you'll see some motherfuckers D up

Perhaps we are seeing what total selfishness looks like? Seriously, Moses Malone did not want to lose at anything. These guys today are happy losers. And why wouldn't they be? They are stupidly wealthy. The owners are even more stupidly wealthy. Cream puffs. Boring games. Boring league. Give me Rugby League over any American sport, full stop.

The Bulls finally put Drummond on the court for over 30 minutes and he ends up with 26 rebounds. His team wins. Vucevic ends up with 13 rebounds. The entire Cavs team had 39 rebounds. Will Drummond be back on the bench next game? Most likely, yes.

Will Drummond be back on the bench next game? Most likely, yes. Tuned in for the whole 2nd half of this one. 2nd best game I've seen all season after that OT Warriors lakers epic. Bulls played frantic D, the hometown comms were going berko and the United Centre was pumping. Great atmosphere. Drummond is still a massive human. That can still jump. Bit ominous for the high flying Cavs playoff hopes in that he completely manhandled the spindly duo of Jarrett and Mobley. That did not look like the Cavs that have the 2nd best record since Dec. Outrebounded 2 to 1.

Outrebounded 2 to 1. Drummond off the bench in the next Bulls game--a loss. Cleveland getting outrebounded like this makes me wonder again why they let Kevin Love go. Love has been pretty damn good off the bench for the Heat. What do I know? Nothing, yet I enjoy mulling over some of the moves that have to be made to get more cap space.

Nuggets starting to look better? I think so. Clippers proving that Westbrook not the problem in Lakers debacle? I think so, because they miss him not coming off the bench. L.A. has no bench, not much of a team there so far this season. Bucks going through the motions until Middleton comes back? I think so. Celtics looking good, but not good enough to win it all? No clue. Haven't watched them all season.

Is Luka Doncic a bit of a tedious cunt?
Fat fucker slowly dribbles down the floor, slowly gets to his spot, slowly swishes the shot. Then he has a massive bleat to the ref. Where's my call? I was fouled.
Does not defend at the other end AT ALL. Rinse, repeat.
The refs must be so sick of him having a giant where's-the-call whinge at them after every single fucking possession
He averages 34 pts a game, leads the NBA in scoring by miles.......... and the Mavs lose anyway.
Again.
Poor old Kyrie Irving is basically a spectator.

Absolute scenes here in the lakers vs GS game. 2 mins left and the next 15 seconds of play took 20 minutes. 2 reviews then the shot clock broke.
Reviews, ffs their review team. we all saw the result on screen 5 mins ago, just announce it you dopes
