I think KyKnee is such an overrated bum. He just has amazing fortune in playing with the two best players in the game. Otherwise we'd never have heard of him


He’s probably one of the 5 to 10 most talented players in the league. He’s just also doesnt love basketball and the extracurricular stuff definitely gets to him.

Also, lotta rumors that hes, uhh, very similar to Harden with the off the court interests, to put it mildly.

I dislike him Greatly, for the BS he pulled.
But he's one of the best players today. A great dribbler, too.

Also, say what you want about LeBron but the man can pick teams.

KD was probably too worried about how he was looking in the camera.

Why doesn't Curry ever miss these showboating shots? How can anyone really be this good? Nobody should be able to pullup from halfcourt and hit them most of the time.

Scoring quarter by quarter hides the fact that this game is 100-80 at halftime. :rofl:

Nice. Kareem was in really good shape. Due to his Karate Skills.
LeBron may overtake him, in All-Star nods.

Thing is, even if Lebron loses a step or three the next couple seasons, he'll still get in by popular vote. So, unless he's out of the league within two years, he definitely overtakes Kareem.

Okay, my stream got so far behind, it just skipped ahead and skipped the first three dunks. Awesome.

Think I'm gonna call it a night. I can suffer through a spotty stream for a game that matters, but this is about my limit.

Take it easy all, enjoy the show.
