Yeah, folks here wanted him to back Gortat, but apparently -- given the contract he got from the Raptors -- we may not have really tried.

:Nate slams his own head on the table:

Of all the no-brainers, that was the brainless-est: he's a tremendous bargain.

indeed. bismarck = ben wallace (give or take)


Well, bismark = Charles Jones (give or take) more likely but he was still a longtime player in this league.

Didn't even know Brad was playing...glad he wasn't injured :)

Lol, Beal (and the rest of Team World) was basically messing around the first half and not trying. He got hot in the 4th though during the comeback, with 11pts


It sounds like it was a great event. Even if it generally wasn't the most serious game, it is good to see Beal have some success.
