I haven't watched the all-star weekend since Nash, JJ, Marion, Q, and Amare were all in it.

Reggie Jackson playing at 30% causing them to lose. Thats was pretty disappointing having Dragic pair with him.

Of course, just like in the standings, even though the 2nd best west team had the second fastest time, an east team has to advance ahead of them.

I don't think that made that big of difference. The main thing that won it for the other team was Lillard hitting his shot the first time...that saves a ton of time.

I don't know anything about this Reggie Jackson **** but now I wish the real Reggie Jackson would take a swing at his face.

1/10th of a second. That was pretty cool. Dragic could have done it in 5 seconds less time though...

I honestly didn't know Nelly was still alive. He just assaulted Bradley Beal.

I don't know why people were so excited about the dunk contest this year...honestly I think only Ross and George deserve to be there.

He had the best dunk of the night. Which wasn't saying too much. It was a good dunk, and George's was too, but just when I think the contest can't get any worse stuff like tonight happens.

That was bad and the NBA should feel bad.

The dunk contest sucked. All we got to see was 2 great dunks by George and Wall and a bunch of mediocre dunks from the rest. The contest format is dumb, just 1 dunk by each player, wtf...

I agree. I just disagreed with the Wall didn't belong there part. He really surprised me. I don't get it tho, how they always tend to overcomplicate things. Just pick the best dunkers you can get and have them do 3-4-5 dunks, maybe discard the best and the worst or something like that, and send the 2 best for a final showdown.

You will see better dunks in the allstar game than the actual dunk contest

A's over Royals. Lester and experience will prove that he's worth the trade.

Tigers winning it all. Tigers are, imo, peaking at the right time.

Gerald Green should have been in the 3 Point Contest and Plumlee should have been in the Dunk Contest.

Maybe if the NBA stops putting on a circus instead of a simple dunk contest we could actually watch a good product. Whatever.
