like why leave out amar'e cuz he is injured sometimes, pretty sure he hasn't missed any time this year. he signed a massive contract and then got hurt and now he basically sucks, that's the definition of overpaid

not to mention it was m/l the consensus outside of knicks hq that this is where is career was headed

sager's valentine's suit was kinda dope tonight

Forbes has decided to expose egregiously overpaid CEOs? Cool.

All-Star Weekend in general is pretty half-assed.

thank g-d

yessss the worst part of any close game now is that it looks like they just now decided to use instant replay this ONE time so hang on guys while we figure this out oh hey computer man help us out here couldja *joey crawford hustles over* *black eyed peas play on loop on PA for ten straight minutes* yes confirmed it is a clear path foul

*computer man gingerly puts cruddy dell monitor face-down on wobbly scorers table*

lol that part always kills me

Yah so lame how like hundreds of thousands of people know the truth within a few seconds.

Lol hibachi

The pass at ~1:20 on that reel is something.

the behind the head pass was really nice

literally the only good thing he's done as sec of ed

Chris Sheridan ‏@sheridanhoops -- My verdict on #NBA commissioner Adam Silver's first news conference: I miss David Stern's combativeness. Silver acts like a CEO. #boring

Ok I'm watching nick cannon interview cliff Paul, all star Saturday was really made to watch in five minutes on YouTube the next day

is there a single person who thinks the cliff paul thing is cool

I thought the first commercial or two were funny but mostly because the groucho Marx/ humpty hump getup has some inherent comic value esp when contrasted with someone we normally expect to try to appear maximally "cool" at all times

Probably should have been retired after the first round and not that into making cliff Paul an entire thing

Like we def don't need anyone trying to pitch a cliff Paul sitcom to fx this summer

god the skills challenge is an embarrassment

HORSE is really worse than this?

is there a single person who thinks the cliff paul thing is cool

― Clay, Saturday, February 15, 2014

it's one of the worst, lamest marketing campaigns ever invented, and -- even in just a few commercials -- it keeps starting, then abruptly stopping, story-lines. they're developing a rivalry! no, no rivalry; they're developing a brand of sneakers! no, no sneakers . . .

joe johnson wtf dude

why was he even in this thing

I'm starting to become an allstar weekend joe johnson truther

I'm glad they didn't put that nohoper Kyle Korver in this thing, glad to have Joe's star power

ll cool jj

this dunk contest format is just a head-scratcher, like what the hell even

dear god why is this

I'm watching a chinese language broadcast and I have no idea what's going on and I think I prefer it this way

As far as I can tell there is a dunk free for all going on

let's have the judges hold up ipads

John wall looks so pained to be there

is it the dunk contest that's on? the dunk contest is, and has always been, lame-o.

so the first round is just totally meaningless

hey guys it's drake

he makes everything better
