Overshadowed by the Dragic news is the ugliness of those rising star jerseys.

The Grizzlies owner tho. Dude looked so uptight out there, everyone else was laughing and he was just there trying to act all stoic and cool.

Just enjoying some hoops. Do not go so hard into it that I really care for what happens. Let the youth be served. Lets see some dunks, and lets see the best play on Sunday. Have some snacks, put your feet up and relax and enjoy.

I'm looking forward to that three point contest. There are a lot of good shooters this year.

Why is Kevin Hart still a thing? He is so tacky and not funny.

I'm kind of surprised people didn't realize this sooner. He'll be back yet again next year like a clown that he is.

Lol Splash brothers predicted each other for all-star game mvp but predicted themselves for 3 point shootout winner.

co-signed.

don't get me wrong, he's an absolutely hilarious dude, and amazing at his craft, but he really needs to stick to stand up comedy. He tries too hard when he's live on tv. childish even.

Not sure how much of this I'll actually watch but I'm pulling for Curry or Wes Matthews in the 3pt contest, Lavine in the dunk contest, and Isaiah Thomas in the skills competition.
