I just got a vision of Trae winning the MVP in his hometown in year 3! :D And continue to recruit! It’s your town! You said it!

Ain't it past time for voting, even with a delay to start the season? I I thought it was just going to be a break and then resume.

I'd like for us to get the event without covid. The ownership did a good job renovating the arena. The upper deck is possibly the nicest I have seen in the country. It's worth pointing that out since mamy arenas just leave the upper level as it and don't bother improving it. The only NBA arena I haven't been to is the United Center in Chicago.

De’Aaron Fox Criticizes NBA’s ‘Stupid’ All-Star Game Plan

The 2021 All-Star Game is scheduled to be held in Atlanta on March 7, but one potential All-Star isn't exactly excited to attend if selected.
"If I'm going to be brutally honest, I think it's stupid," Kings guard De'Aaron Fox said following Sacramento's win over the Celtics on Wednesday night. "If we have to wear a mask and all this for a regular game, then what's the point of All-Star being back? Obviously, money makes the world go round, so it is what it is."

How State Farm Arena became the site of this year’s All-Star game

“This is as far from typical as possible,” Hawks CEO Steve Koonin said. “Players will arrive Saturday night, they will leave Sunday night.”

At long last, the one-day All-Star event, which will include a skills challenge, 3-point contest and dunk contest, was announced Thursday afternoon, though rumors of the event have been swirling for weeks. The game will feature local health-care heroes and HBCUs, with the NBA and Players Association committing more than $2.5 million in funds and resources toward HBCUs and “support and awareness around equity and access to COVID-19 care, relief and vaccines,” the league said in a statement.

“NBA All-Star in Atlanta will continue our annual tradition of celebrating the game and the greatest players in the world before a global audience,” commissioner Adam Silver said. “In addition to the festivities on the court, the All-Star game will honor the vital role HBCUs play in our communities and focus attention and resources on COVID-19 relief, particularly for the most vulnerable.”

IDK if Trae gets a coaches selection into the AS Game. But Capela seems like a lock.

Both! Although based on our record I could see them only taking one Hawk. Oh man, as much as Trae is our leader I’d have to say Capela has had a year to remember. Comon both!
