Event All things 2017 All Star weekend thread

[HailBlazers]

Last night? Crap, I was out. He do good? He has the makings to go full on ESPN when his BB career is done.

Yea he did great, interviewed some young guys then Kyrie and was able to get Westbrook to talk on camera when the main crew was saying nobody could. CJ looked fing Dapper. The hosts were giving him shit about taking their jobs.

 

[BigGameDamian]

How often will KD get the ball passed to him?

 

[handiman]

Gotta earn that contract some how right? BS he isn't wearing a Blazer Jersey or something to at least help pay for that contract......

It's bad enough that his name sounds like a disease, do you really want to eat anything he cooks, especially if it's served up with Blazer colors?

For the All Star game I want four solid minutes of commercials so I can make a sandwich and grab two beers.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Only 4 contestants in the dunk contest? Is it slipping or are they just trying something new?

 

[BigGameDamian]

Well there's one for the Knicks.

 

[PDXFonz]

Called Porzingis on the skills.

I think we might see a record tied or broken in the 3 pt contest tonight...
Heart says CJ on, but Kemba is my dark horse. He's either going to go off or finish last. Same with swaggy P. I guess I'll go with CJ as the winner in the 3 pt.

We are going to see either a very good, or very bad exhibition in the 3 pt shoot out, I'm going to go with the former.

 

[PDXFonz]

And Derrick Jones will win the dunk contest unless he gets robbed and they give it to Gordon for getting robbed last year. If someone gets robbed this year I will be done with the dunk contest. Seems like every year someone gets robbed.

Announcer has included a tidbit for every shooter IE: "One of the leagues elite scorers from the sg position and last years most improved player" for CJ and "he once hit 10 3s in one game" for Wes, but Nick young was just swaggy p from the lakers.

 

[PDXFonz]

That was embarrassing by Wes...

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Wes had a rough go of it.

 

[e_blazer]

Gordon was in a groove.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Wes had a rough go of it.

Probably because his money shot is the step back. He can't do that in the contest or his time would run out after the 2nd rack.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Come on CJ. You couldn't hit the last one to beat Wes?

 

[HailBlazers]

Rough showing by CJ, I'll take Dame anyday in this contest.

 

[PDXFonz]

Wow I'm surprised CJ was so atrocious... He's got to be disappointed in that performance.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

At least CJ isn't last...

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Some drama at least. Klay won't be going back to back.

 

[PDXFonz]

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Both guys I was pulling for shot like crap. Oh well.

 

[PDXFonz]

Kemba still in it...

 

[jlprk]

This is my favorite event because the scoring is objective. Nobody fools around; it's real competition.

Agreed, this is the main event of all star Saturday for sure.

 

[jlprk]

Kemba Walker is always great against us like a shorter Lillard.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Good for Eric Gordon! He's been injured so much in his career. Even though he plays for Houston I'm glad he's finally healthy.

 

[KingSpeed]

How did CJ do? I missed it.

 

[jlprk]

Gordon wins after blowing it in regulation. He got 6 on the 3rd rack, 6 on the 4th, everyone thought he had it won, then got 1 on the 5th rack. In overtime against Kyrie Irving, Gordon won.

Kenny Walker announced he had invented the verb CJed because McCollum tightened up in his later racks. So Fucker, I mean Walker, kept saying that each player was CJing.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

How did CJ do? I missed it.

2nd to worst score

Wes was 3rd worst.

 

[Sinobas]

How did CJ do? I missed it.

He sucked ass, got the worst score...probably has to be close to one of the worst scores in the history of the contest, he got like 8. Why do the Blazers always have to embarass us on ASW?

 

[PDXFonz]

Wow watching Steph brick half court shots is so cringe.
