NBA All-Star Weekend thread

What was up with Steve in the 3 point contest? He was horrible.

None of those shots were clutch enough. There was no game on the line. I'm sure that contest was boring for him.

 

[FArting]

Anyone know why Strawberry or Tucker wasn't on the rookie team?

 

[YouJustGotSUNSD]

Because Tucker has played all of 8 minutes this season and DJ was the 59th pick...

Id be more surprised if they were in the game.

p.s. Sean Williams dominated in that game.

put Kobe back in!!!! I Want to see his finger fall off

These jerseys are terribly confusing!

 

[Griffin]

These jerseys are terribly confusing!

Agreed.

So now the fans get to vote for the all-star MVP too? And before the game is even over? I predict Yao Ming wins by a landslide

 

[Bufalay]

it was funny to see amare play no defense and try to score as much as he could. He knows he got screwed last year and it trying to get that MVP.

 

[Roca Dolla]

whoever designed the ASG jerseys should be fired

 

[Bufalay]

those jerseys are awesome.

It's the All-Star game, teams don't play defense unless it's close in the 4th qtr. The West starters are disadvantaged with Kobe injured and having Iverson & Yao playing. Duncan doesn't exactly excel in this kind of a game either. Nash is the only guy getting back on defense on the West and it usually ends up in a 3 on 1 dunkfest.

 

[Folster]

This has to be the worst All-Star game I have ever seen. Sloppy and boring.

 

[dodie53]

kobe should have been replaced imo

 

[Roca Dolla]

yup totally agree, amare didnt even played in the 3rd quarter

 

[Proteus]

Last year's game was better.

Amare with a great dunk on Howard.

 

[tobiazz]

Stat scoring on Howard as usual. Feed the Beast for a chance to win.

 

[bigfoot]

yes! highlight play by stat

 

[tobiazz]

Time for Dirk and Stat to take all the shots

 

[Proteus]

Big lineup for West with Dirk, Amare, and Duncan on the court at once.

Airball by Lebron.

West up 114-112 with 5:34 to go in the 4th.

 

[Proteus]

Airball by Dirk.

 

[tobiazz]

Stat is a Monster

 

[Kel Varnsen]

These jerseys are terribly confusing!

The back of one of the team's looks too similar to the front of the other.

That's gotta be confusing for guys who are playing with guys they never play with.

 

[mribnik]

Might have to get me some of those "trash talker" shoes.

 

[tobiazz]

This is why Ray Allen should have been on the All Star team initially. I've wanted him on the Suns since he was drafted. What a pretty shot.

 

[FArting]

Anyone know when All Star tickets are on sale or how much they cost? I want to go to the All Star game next year.
