  • Thanks. Got it.
    If we knew half as much about coaching an NBA team as we think, we"d know twice as much as we do.

            Of ffs. The little jokes made on player intros? We skipped a televised draft but somehow still managed to bruise egos and hurt feelings?

                "give it up now for my guy. Demar...Rozan!!"

                  Hes an entertainer and they need a MC to hype the game during the pre-match ceremonies. The biggest complaint should be getting a washed up singer to sing the anthem, only to have her sabotage and butcher the song.

                    • Anyone saw the vid of T-Mac saying he's not sure if Lowry and DeRozan can keep this up in the playoffs?

                      That's funny coming from a guy who's never gotten past the 1st round in his career lol. What does he know about playoffs and winning?

                        There are some games Thursday. Cavs-Wiz and Clips-Warriors scheduled on my cable. Thank goodness the Suns aren't playing.

                          It's pretty crazy.

                          The NHL held their all star weekend last month. They played the AS game on sun afternoon. They were off on mon and then it was back to work on tue. Just one day off!

                          The NBA players on the other hand are off for a damn week.

                            The player whined for it in the CBA. Same group of guys who have all stars taking "rest days", who protested not to have the draft televised, and who finally be told to maybe try a little bit during the all star game people pay money for after 5 or 6 years of pathetic "efforts"

                            • lol respect the game. One of the main ASG complaints is the players don't respect the game, just layup lines and 35 foot jump shots.

                              Kevin Hart is fine. No comedian pleases everybody, ever. Personally his new ice bath YouTube bits are pretty hilarious.

                              Fergie was at least memorable, even if for all the wrong reasons.

                              The new team format injected a bit of extra interest and that was a good finish to the game. I've seen the suggestion that next year they save the AS player announcements for either a couple days before the weekend or the Saturday, then do the live draft right away. That would put the "who made the team?" excitement right on AS weekend instead of several weeks beforehand.
