You know, cause they actually have basketball greatness in NBA.

It's called Mecca. Would've let is pass but you spelled it incorrectly twice. Once even in capital letters for emphasis. To address your point, however I already stated that being the Mecca has little to do with the Knicks, but rather the historical significance the city has meant to basketball.

Yeah, I am just more in to mecha robots than claiming cities as "meccas", like New York, that word is ancient. New York is like Oakland Raiders, trying to hold on to something they had decades ago. Even in 90's last time Knicks were good, Bulls were still better, just like they are now. I personally think Chicago is the better basketball city, as city and team. And I already know the futility of trying to share Jazz's awesomeness, even if you don't recognize its merits as a team, or Salt Lake as a City.

My intent wasn't to belittle you, even thought hat's probably how it came off. NYC is still considered the MEcca for the historical significance. Not my rules or perception, but the way things are. Players till this day praise NYC for its basketball chops, love playing at the Garden, and respect the NYC street basketball scene(rucker and other areas).

As for SLC and Utah. I'm sure it's a wonderful place to live, but in historical significance it's not recognized as highly , or even close, to NYC in terms of impact. As an aside, I once did a cross country road trip From Sac to NYC. I passed through SLC and found Salt Lake nice to look at while I was driving through. Even remember seeing some shooting stars as I was driving through.

Every city has it's good points, but discussing good points wasn't my intent. It's all about perception, and Nba players rate NYC higher than SLC.

They should just let celebrities in this game too. All you have to do is shoot 3s

With all the injuries we've had this year, I don't mind it. Keeping Bosh sitting pretty on the bench is just fine.

Korver's the type of **** that's going to lose a 3 point contest but is going to win your hearts in a game.

Doubtful. 2008 all star game, Ray Allen won the game for the East by scoring 28 including getting hot and scoring 14 in the last few minutes of the 4th quarter.

LeBron won MVP.

I think I saw it being 295.5 or 299.5.

Coach Bud should play Lebron with the all Hawks lineup. Lebron on a team with that spacing and those catch and shoot players would be ridiculous.

SideshowBob · Post #1796 » by **SideshowBob** » Mon Feb 16, 2015 2:05 am

West going for 200

Rapaz · Post #1797 » by **Rapaz** » Mon Feb 16, 2015 2:06 am

That was an entertaining half . . . wait, 47 points in a quarter?!

The Realist · Post #1798 » by **The Realist** » Mon Feb 16, 2015 2:06 am

West trying much harder than the East, as usual.
