2024 All-Star Weekend

[Im Coming Home]

He was drunk and wack tonight

Criticized Sabrina using wnba ball
Criticized why Jaime had a Mexican tribute
Talked about how no one on their feet for 3 point shootout
Talked about how when Vince Carter blah blah for the 100th time

He was just all around bad

He was fine.

It's just that everyone is sensitive and ready to start bitching and crying over anyone that has a slightly different opinion than they do.

For example - he's right on Sabrina.

This is a competition. Either make it equal or don't have it at all. It cheapens the idea of it. I get that it's for a charity but it's corny pandering and doesn't actually help the WNBA.

I'm curious, what advantage, in your mind, does shooting with a WNBA ball give Sabrina?

Or are you just going to ignore the fact that it takes an absurd amount of skill to do what she did, and from the NBA three point line at that?

I don't understand this criticism at all. I guarantee most men can't go out there and cook like she did from NBA distance, regardless of what ball they use. She is one of the best shooters on the planet, regardless of gender. That's all I see here.

Yeah comes off like he's just misogynistic. A smaller ball is not an advantage, and she still shot from the NBA 3pt line which is a disadvantage for her since that's not her normal range she has to shoot from. He's just got clown takes that seems like he's a misogynistic person trying to cover it up by just claiming he was it's all even including the ball or whatever tf.

That’s what they do at all star games. Theres lots of networking and recruiting.

Brunson's tampering game is on full throttle this week, first Mikal now Spida.

I'm sure it'll all work out one way or another.

I've said it previously.... Spida/Cleveland is another Kawhi/Toronto type of thing. Everyone knew Kawhi wanted to be in LA area but Tor got what they wanted. Cle knows Spida isn't signing long-term unless they win it all and even then, it's iffy.

Absolutely love seeing Brunson bonding with Mitchell.... the last piece to the puzzle.

We live in a society where we’re trying to make everything an even playing field without acknowledging that the playing field - I.e in this case the basketball - is uneven.

If you acknowledge this you’re automatically called a bunch of mumble jumble names like misogynist and all that jazz. That’s the way things work now. If you happen to opine on anything that doesn’t fit a narrative you’re automatically a terrible person.

I wouldn’t say he’s a misogynist but he wasn’t good. The guy who was with them i think Harlen kept trying to clean up Kenny’s drunk takes doing damage control for the casual audience.

They already calling him a world class hater on twitter he’s trending. Not rocket science to know he was out of pocket this wasn’t the barbershop. Just like he hate on Knicks but all of a sudden wanted to show love once Brunson showed up in studio.

lol as everyone felt to say Kenny was ass. And now he’s trending proves we not crazy.

[Kampuchea]

Damn, Kenny getting cancelled. Not really but he was a bit tone-deaf with that. I understand the comment about basketball size but this was meant to promote women's basketball and he was discrediting it, poorly timed on his part.

Hit it on the head. I’m not working with the nba and the sponsors and I felt their pain. Doesn’t help every year he compares dunk contest to Vince Carter times. Like bro nba trying to save all star games you not helping. My 8 year old was excited he don’t care about back in the day.

Just read the room.

I don't necessarily like the idea of Brunson/Mitchell defensively, but if Spida wants to play on this team you get him and worry about how to make it work after the fact.

I didn't call you anything, I asked you to explain to me what advantage does Sabrina have by using a ball that is...a whole whopping 1 inch in circumference smaller? How does that make her performance easier? You seem to think it's like her throwing a tennis ball through a hula hoop when it's not.

Especially when she shot her balls from NBA range, which was a "disadvantage" to her...and i use the word disadvantage jokingly, because if you've ever watched Sabrina play, she shoots from NBA range all the time with marksman efficiency....so again, I ask. Where is the unfair competitive advantage?

Shouldn't the fact that she shot from NBA range dispel your entire argument about the competition being "unfair"?

Ignore the ppl calling you a misogynist. I just want you to explain how there was some kind of advantage for Sabrina by using a 28 inch ball as opposed to a 29 inch one. Prove your point.

I still want a Donovan Mitchell and Brunson back court

[MrDollarBills]

The basketball size...again, I need to understand how a 1 inch size difference in the ball actually matters when 99% of the 3 point competition involves pure skill? Not trying to start a debate but I see men saying this but I guarantee dudes can't shoot like Sabrina can regardless of the ball used.

Also, Kenny has been a loudmouth idiot for years and he drunk just enough tough juice last night to expose himself. Even Reggie Miller of all people had to shut his dumb ass down.

And then he threw in some racism to boot. He needs to apologize not only to Sabrina, but Jaime as well for being a moron.

Exactly. The entire weekend is supposed to be for the kids...no one wants to hear two old men bitching and moaning about Vince Carter.

It’s mikal szn on this board so I’m going to let them live lol

Honestly the chances of Spida becoming a Knick are higher than Mikal, so might as well roll with it.

I'll be watching either way. Nova boys + Randle, OG, Bojan, Ihart are gonna cook regardless

When we first got OG I thought we still needed a true scorer next to Brunson and Randle so I wasn’t on board with Mikal. But seeing how well we are at full strength and all the great teams we beat, I wouldn’t mind adding mikal to the core now. Side note: We finally started to give OG a bigger role in the last 2 games before he got hurt and our team looked insanely good. We might have something there.

It does seem Donovan Mitchell is destined to go to the Knicks/Nets though. I still prefer Donovan in case Randle chokes or isn’t healthy in the playoffs.

yeah I doubt Nets trade Mikal to us, unless if we overpay

I just have no idea who the hell we would even trade for Spida

we got rid of all our young dudes lol

His defense has improved this year... not great by any means but improved from what I've seen. I honestly have 0 concerns about that backcourt working well together

You would think it would have some kind of impact, a smaller item going in a larger goal. It’s actually less of an impact than I thought, and maybe even a detriment.

The results of the study show no substantial differences in terms of the percentage of two-point field goals when using the old and new basketballs.
