Zion over Booker? These coaches not much better than the fans

Hopefully Booker takes AD’s spot.

Hopefully Booker takes AD’s spot.

I'm sure he would but still disrespectful IMO

Booker should have been in over Zion no question. I know he's gonna get in with AD's spot but its the principle of being named an All Star.

I also wouldn't have put Lavine in the game either. I just don't like his game. I think he's an empty numbers, bad team kind of guy. He's a good player, but he's more of a 3rd guy on a really good team than an all star type. Probably would have put Sabonis in over him

You do realize the Bulls are playing pretty well this season right?

Wiggins and Curry with a couple of late plays to save the game

Not anymore man.

He has gotten a lot better.

Lavine and Randle are the two most improved players this year IMO. Both went from being empty numbers to legit star caliber leading man production.

Not saying they are championship caliber leading men, but both are worthy of being all stars.

Draymond predictably with a fantastic game. Curry with 37, in a game where the stingy Knicks D held them to 114 total. Too bad he can't carry a team though.

Luka just reminded the Celtics that he's pretty good.

 

[tlance]

Geez.

Was just about to write about how terrible the Mavs offense has been down the stretch. Then Luka hits a a dagger step back at the end of a horrible possession.

He’s not bad.

 

[tlance]

And again.

Damn Luka

 

[bksballer89]

That wasn't great defense by Boston

 

[Stakesarehigh]

How is it possible Blake griffin isn't dealt yet

 

[bksballer89]

Was Boston a fluke too @WiggyRuss ?

 

[trojanfan12]

No one wants him?

 

[Stakesarehigh]

When Marcus gets back and Kemba is up to speed this is a four seed in the east type of team. But they absolutely fucked up having all those picks. Ainge did a nice job getting to about 3 years ago and has been terrible since.

 

[tlance]

I disagree. Boston’s defense was terrific the last 2 minutes. Only quality look Dallas got was a corner 3 in transition from Brunson (which he missed).

Luka just made 2 really tough shots. That is what great players do.

Correct

Levine and Sabonis both belonged in.

 

[Robotech]

After Boston fleeced them, who could have known that the Nets would build a championship caliber team before the Celtics?
