Maybe they should have a 2-on-2 exhibition with siblings.

Ooooor intergenerational games! Currys (Curries?) vs. Thompsons! Riverses vs. Dunleavys!

Tream is bad tonight

another monster game from love

near triple 5

klay thompson

Just finished the 1st q. Incredible stuff. KLAY hit those first 6 in a row I was ready to go nuts again

David lee working hard on d too! Draymond d'ing up gasol, good stuff. All three bigs out tonight for gsw :/

Mirotic is a cool player

i am v bullish on mirotic but he needs to be somewhere where he's getting more than like 15mpg

Shoulda started him w butler out

he is getting quite a bit of run for a rookie on a Thibs squad

True

but yeah he can't really play SF, and you've got Pau and Taj at the 4...might need to trade Taj? Or by the time his rookie contract is up, Pau will be retired or washed up.

Taj has a ton of value around the league doesn't he?

yep
ha I was just about to bitch about how useless Hinrich is

just started the 4th man Alive that pass from curry. What a weird game so far

Love how the refs are calling this game so far

End of close games still the worst.

dubs first home loss in 10 weeks.

Mirotic got two bad calls against him after I posted that.

What a bizarre and awesome game. Rose maybe the weirdest game I've ever seen, so much good and so much bad. His last three or four threes were some of the worst looking shots I've ever witnessed. Never got over the rim. Then hits the game winner? And like no assists and a million turnovers.

Draymond green is my hero getting that tip on Noah and gasol.

Was Iggy not in the act of shooting?

That curry turnover before the end of the game was roooough

was pretty close to being in the act if it wasn't. but if I was a Warriors fan I'd prob prefer Klay shooting a FG than Iggy shooting FTs to tie.

Oh def I was secretly glad they didn't give him ft's haha. Klay just shoulda taken one more step, think he rushed it. Noah and gasol were fun, watching draymond work against those guys was a blast.

flabbergasted by W's going 0-14 from deep in 2nd half and OT

Some halfway down but wouldn't go. Also those missed free throws were big in the 4th.

my all-star reserve pixx

EAST

G jeff teague
G jimmy butler
FC al horford
FC paul millsap
FC kyle korver
WC dwyane wade
WC kyrie irving

toughest omissions: none, weak field again this year

WEST

G james harden
G chris paul
FC tim duncan
FC kevin durant
FC lamarcus aldridge
WC Damian lillard
WC russell westbrook
injury replacement: klay thompson

toughest omissions: cousins, draymond green, andrew bogut, kawhi leonard, z-bo, deandre jordan, markieff morris, wes matthews, tyson chandler, ty lawson (all would be worthy choices in the east)

no raptors for toughest omissions? figured at least one of those dudes must be ballin his brains out but yeah it's the east

lowry >>> irving

lowry is starting xp

oh ha

list looks good kev, id swap zbo for milsap maybe

they play in diff conferences tho

how many allstars from the 2011 draft I wonder

it has not been a great year for my 2011 draft opinion

smh at myself

it's still a collection of nice players with little franchise shifting star power, but very good depth now

I'd prob swap cousins in for kd (bc he's missed half the year) or duncan (let the old man sit) but otherwise k3v otm.

u got to put kd in there CMON dont have the allstar game w/o the best player

a couple weeks back I'd have Conley over cp3 too but the clips have really picked it up and you can't say paul doesn't belong.

he's played in like 4 games man idk

KD PLAYS THATS FINAL
