:lol: You've got to be kidding me. Down 5 with 1 second left, he doesn't take a contested full court shot? And you actually think this is valid criticism?


" Lol look at LeBron trying to score on a meaningless 3 pointer. He's so insecure! "

Other side of the coin.

Nah, to generalize "all players have flopped before" is exactly the weak excuse I was expecting. Does Duncan flop? Does Kobe flop? Rarely if ever have I booked either of these old school guys as floppers.

A lot of players flop, a lot sell contact/exaggerate contact like Harden, but if anyone should know, it's Dwyane Wade who has not only tried selling contact, but has blatantly flopped to get a call, which in my book is even worse than someone as annoying as Harden.

I see your Spurs... and will raise the Heat...


Manu flops, no doubt.

But Wade is one of the worse when it comes to 'hollywood moments'. I'm not referring to 'sellling' contact... you remember Manu trying to swipe the ball away from Wade in game 2 last year only for him to 'grab' his eye like he got scratched when in reality Manu didnt even graze him?

Those are the types of plays I'm referring to. If Wade is driving and gets a love tap but sells the call, it wouldnt be as big a deal imo.

So now that that's over

Anyone want to Join the Knicks?

You know NYs trying to grab one of those West players like Gasol and Lamarcus. Call it a gesture of good faith.

What happened to KD? 3 points, 10 minutes of play. Seemed like he didn't even wanna be there when on the court.

scoring record for most points in all star game is Wilt Chamberlain 42

Russell Westbrook now has record for most points in half all star game

Also has record now for most field goal attempts (28)

I think though that Harden's stat line is more in the spirit of the all-star game ... you should get rewarded for passing

not that it would be bad if westbrook won
think peaceful thoughts :meditate:

Westbrook had 12 more fg attempts than Harden plus 4 points from the charity stripe and was only 12 pts up on him at the end. Please stop rewarding this garbage.

According to your logic, Tim Duncan doesn't deserve any respect.

Of those wack Hawks, two had a positive +/- and one dropped 21 points. Wack indeed.

if harden chucked as much, he would of broken that 42 point record easily.. and he's probably not alone. chuckbrook sucks.
