2011-12 NBA ALL-STAR GAME THREAD...........

[THE HCP]

I know everybody doesn't enjoy these games, but I take them for what they are..... glorified street ball. Usually a small man's game, I doubt our boy LA puts up big numbers, but will be good to see a Blazer back out there representin' us!

 

[jaspitzer]

I was thinking about it earlier, his game doesnt really translate to a flashy streetball type game. I wonder what he'll do???

 

[THE HCP]

Neither did Brandon's, but he was handling the ball. It all depends on if the guards look for LA running' the floor!

 

[crowTrobot]

Neither did Brandon's

debatable. he had a couple driving crossover layups through traffic that looked just as impressive as a flashy dunk.

 

[THE HCP]

Not saying he couldn't handle him self in that situation just fine, just saying his normal style of play was more methodical.

I don't think LA is going to go off tomorrow, but getting lobs at the rim from Nash and Paul is a strong possibility the way he runs the floor for a big.

 

[THE HCP]

Over/Under 12 pts?

 

[ehizzy3]

evans to win dunk contest

 

[KingSpeed]

I take my post and delete it. I don't make bets. But I think Aldridge will do well.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

sure it does. He's one of the best finisher's in the league. We're the real Lob City. I'll take the over on the 12 points. Big men who can finish do well in All Star games.

When Miller was here we were Lob City. Now Camby is the only one who looks to lob to LMA.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

hes not starting so he wont get mvp, but i could see him going off if he hits all his jumpers and runs the floor for lobs

opening theme song for NBA all star saturday night is a song called "*****s in paris". (probably edited out, but it starts with an N)

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

having WNBA players in the all star activities is a waste of time. no one gives a fuck about them there. I'd rather have the ball boy be there instead.

 

[PapaG]

I didn't know Ray Felton was in the Shooting Stars competition for Team Orlando.

He looks a lot like Dennis Scott for some reason, though.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

NBA mobile app is annoying. can't turn off notifications for all star shit. blah!

 

[illmatic99]

Saw LA sitting next to Evan Turner at the 3pt contest.

I believe Camby2Aldridge has the most alley oop dunks in the NBA this season. More than Paul to Griffin.

wow did you see the rating of the force meter on that one? crazy

I could of told you guys the Love-meister would win the 3 point contest...

 

[Natebishop3]

half naked dudes dancing around to Niki Minaj.... yup..... that's the current state of affairs in the NBA.

 

[Natebishop3]

Marj J just butchered the Star Spangled Banner.

 

[PapaG]

I could of told you guys the Love-meister would win the 3 point contest...

But could you have told us?

 

[PapaG]

Bynum hurt his knee yesterday, yet he's out on the floor now?

Welcome to the NBA.

 

[PapaG]

Wow, Rose doesn't look well at all. Barely got the lift to get it over the rim on that dunk.

 

[PapaG]

That dunk by James was maybe the sickest dunk I've ever seen. Right to left hand, under the rim. Just sick.

 

[KingSpeed]

Ugh. Aldridge 12th man?

 

[KingSpeed]

10 West players have played and no LaMarcus

 

[julius]

Ugh. Aldridge 12th man?

They've already made 5 substitutions, with 9 players playing.

Including one player subbing for another player...who was a sub.

who else hasn't played for the west?
