You do know that one day the NBA will make the half court line the "4 point shot" and it is going to turn the game into a complete freak show.

That's not too far from being a good idea.
The Court seems to be getting smaller, as the players get bigger.

They're doing interview and music and stuff.


I'll check it out now, but I got caught up watching the Bucks game and how we scored 38 points in the third quarter. I miss those days! Kyrie started off the quarter with 3 straight threes. We need to get back to that!

Jokic :o
He looks huge. I thought Embiid is the biggest guy in the league tbh

From that angle Jokić does look bigger.
But I believe that they are actually nearly identical, in height and weight.

The angle seems to be fair with middleton who stands on the other end.
Joker 7-0, 250lb vs JoJo 7-0, 250lb(bball reference)
These are offseason metrics.
Jokic is clearly a little bit fat, you can see that in games too. Embiid seems more rigged.
But damn. I have to see them play tonight side by side to tell after this pic

Is Candace Parker the first WNBA Player to host the NBA All-Star Weekend?

Kinda doubt it, he won't go all in. And if you are on the same team as James Harden do you ever get the ball?

Steph or Kemba will get in tonight if their team wins. Their teammates will try to push them towards the MVP.
Both connected to charlotte, these things count in the ASG

Maybe, but they are on team Giannis, Team Lebron if they are in the mood can cook them IMO.

They're trying to spice it up.
But, they need to go back to the drawing board.

Kyrie can play the first and last 5mins(if it’s close). Rest that knee, young sir.
