    Rudy nonchalantly tweets a pic of the ocean on a beach, while all stars are stuck in Indianapolis in 20 degree weather. Rudy might’ve lost the battle but he definitely won the war

    no, but i want the trained basketball creatures to dance for our craven amusement for even MORE time!

  3. Fact of the matter is if you’re going to have this mid-season with players who expect to be competing in the playoffs you just aren’t ever going to have a competitive game. It’s silly to even pretend like that is feasible.

    I was watching last night with an old friend and we were talking about ASGs from like the KG era, and I don’t necessarily know if I’d say there was a ton more defense played in those days, but it was still more exciting because guys were really going for fun, athletic offensive plays. They’d even do how they do today, kinda like take turns with each other, but they were all taking turns doing these awesome in-game dunks and stuff like that, not just chucking up 3s. Throwing it off the backboard to themselves, to each other, Shaq taking the ball up the floor and dribbling between his legs, more globetrotters-y I guess haha. And we were just observing last night how so many of those fun athletic offensive plays have turned into impressive three point shooting performances. So you get less high-flying action, but higher scores at the end of it all so then you’re just like where did all these points come from, they’re all just walk/jogging around out there. I love Dame and I’m glad he got the MVP, the ASG really lends its hand to players like him these days for better or for worse

    Ant should have given his spot to Rudy, if it meant nothing to him. Ant could have taken that break on a beach and come back refreshed.

    As pissed as people are about the lack of effort in the All-Star game, I know that I’d be a million times more pissed if Ant or KAT blew out their knee because they were try harding in the game. I’m perfectly OK with these guys fucking around and not taking it seriously as long as they stay healthy.

    Just give us a 1 on 1 to 7 tourny for all star weekend.

    Would be way more competitive and enjoyable to watch because nobody wants to lose 1 on 1.

    Your never going to make all star game competitive though the game means nothing and everybody is nursing injuries.
