Don’t like this

 

Probably not a great idea to give Trae Young five consecutive free throws to close the half.

 

Nike made 5 all star signature sneakers but only two of those players made the game

 

easy pick

 

Yeah it’s insane Westbrook got in over Booker. Booker has been so good this season.

 

Setting the over under on when Marvin Bagley plays his 82nd career game at next December

 

Trae putting on a free throw clinic lmao

 

Giannis with a glorious return to twitter

ps he isn’t wrong

 

Do players that aren't Centers ever get picked for the All-Star game because of their defense?

 

I mean Rudy is a center and they didn’t care about his defense before either lol

 

Haha. I was thinking more about players like Ben Wallace. There might be a couple others.

 

No

 

Speaking of Ben Wallace, I distinctly remember one year there was a portion of the All Star game that was basically the Pistons vs the West. Chauncey, Rip, Rasheed, and Ben Wallace all on the court at the same time lol.

 

I miss that team so much

 

Sheesh Philly

Unless they win it all I truly think this is the last season that Simmons and Embiid are on the same team

 

Wait, this is Gobert's FIRST ASG!? How can that be!?

 

defense first players don’t tend to get it a lot. and there aren’t really a shortage of offensively flashy bigs in the west

 

It’s behind a paywall but Ben Golliver had probably some of the most agreeable and thoughtful takes of the week on the Kobe assault stuff on Greatest of All Talk. More considerate of the victim/more wary of the “champion of women” narrative this week than most of the other discussion by NBA media has been while still leaving room to understand if a lot of people didn’t feel comfortable talking about it so soon considering the scale of the tragedy.

 

Jokic gotta be the most clutch player this season
