Our 905 PG is 'UP NEXT' on Sunday afternoon.

Congrats, he's got the receipts on those who doubt he'll be the greatest Raptor ever.

It would fit the sports entertainment story line.

He got replaced by someone else :lol:
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

Gonna be really weird to see Scottie in the big game. It will be interesting to see how the other players treat him. This could be his coming out moment and confidence builder.

Also, what does everybody think about Curry vs Ionescu 3-point contest? I find it a bit bizarre as they will both be shooting from different distances and with different balls, but it should be a spectacle.

Depending on how much defense is being played I could see Scottie getting some easy dunks and throwing some nice passes. I don't know how much PT he's going to get though

Didn't Sabrina say she'd shoot the NBA three? I believe she is

You got a fresh tape? I would always tape over one of my sister’s shows and then she’d come cry/yell at me for ruining the ending of Sailor Moon or something.

This is a weak celebrity game. You know they are desperate for people when they get a guy who is only known for film/television in China and with no North American credits. Not a celebrity...sorry.

Scottie will get less than 10 minutes playing time, most likely...
And that's OK...

Last year, 2023 NBA All-star:
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander played 10 minutes only...
Jrue Holiday, 9 min.
De'Aaron Fox, 9 min.
Jaren Jackson Jr., 8 min.

The year before, 2022 NBA All-Star:
Fred VanVleet, 9 min.
Zach LaVine, 11 min.
Jimmy Butler, 9 min.
We all have different opinions, and that is one thing that makes this forum great.

I can't be **** to tune into this, but I also want to watch Scottie. What a dilemma.
