Event 2023 NBA ALL STAR WEEKEND - FEBRUARY 17-19 2023 (FRIDAY - SUNDAY ) TNT

[Chris Craig]

Dame to lead the Blazers to a championship in his 26th year in the league!

When he's 47?

 

[Chris Craig]

The letter 0 tonight scored 81 points.

In honor of Kobe! (*puke*)

There is only one letter 0

 

[Bingo Bango]

ESPN is calling Lillard’s last shot the “game-winning” three. What the hell are they talking about? Lillard’s team won by 9 points.

He won the all star game with a three.

 

[Bingo Bango]

He won the all star game with a three.

No, he didn’t. His team won by nine points.

 

[Chris Craig]

No, he didn’t. His team won by nine points.

It was first to 182 after the third. His three got them to the mark. Thus a game winning three by Dame won the game.

As you said yourself, you haven’t watched in years so you obviously don’t know the rules.

Good Lord. What a ridiculous rule. Another reason not to watch the game.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Anyone else notice that Dame "scored" 26 points in round 1 of the 3 point contest, 26 points in the 2nd round (and "won" at the buzzer) and scored 26 points today, and "won" at the buzzer too?

He's heard "It's a marathon, not a sprint," a few too many times.

First team to 182 wins.

So that was a game-winning shot.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Did you know that Keon Johnson has the HIGHEST vertical jump in NBA draft combine history? His dunks seem pretty bland but perhaps he gets invited to a future dunk contest.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Good Lord. What a ridiculous rule. Another reason not to watch the game.

"Hey you kids, get off my lawn!"

 

[Pinwheel1]

"Hey you kids, get off my lawn!"

Sometimes...they really need to.

 

[PCmor7]

"Hey you kids, get off my lawn!"

"Come on in, Grandpa. Time for your Toradol."

 

[AldoTrapani]

Wow, Chris Tucker got fat.

I said the same thing!

No i didn’t notice that but that was a very keen observation

I was told Shaedon Sharpe does.. but I guess as long as he’s a Trail Blazer then it counts as a record

And what do those numbers have in common?

*6*6*6

 

[KingSpeed]

Hey KS, you see Babylon yet?

No, why?

No one ever gives a fuck. It’s a ridiculous and pointless game, which is why I stopped watching it years ago.

As recently as 2 years ago, it was very competitive. I also remember that great game where AI and Mutombo led an incredible comeback. Yesterday, they just stood around.

 

[Labinot41]

Giannis was trying to recruit Dame hard lmao

 

[OneSport3]

Windy throwing some flames at Adam Silver…

Starts at the 8:40 mark.

 

[Natebishop3]

I know that All Star games have always been a little iffy.... but the players aren't trying at all. There is zero effort.

I would rather watch an All-Star team play against the All-hustle team or something like that. Have players come out and embarrass them.

No one wants to risk injury for a meaningless game.

 

[Pinwheel1]

I have not watched the All-Star game in years. It is absolutely pathetic. Even watching a college football spring game where the play gets blown dead when a defender gets within 5 yards of the QB is more entertaining.

 

[Natebishop3]

Then don't play it.

These guys play a ton of games in the offseason. I think that's a bullshit excuse if that's what they're saying.

 

[AngryFan]

I wouldn't call it meaningless when it is actively devaluing the NBA as a brand. The players might be under the impression that it is meaningless but they are wrong.

Exactly. They play harder at the summer UCLA runs and the Lifetime Athletic runs than they did for the All-Star game last night.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

NBA circle jerk.

 

[Natebishop3]

Move the All-Star game to after the season. Give the players a short break during the middle of the season.

I want to see the All-NBA team against an All-Star team.
