    Zion may be the beast to end all beasts, the final boss - if he can stay healthy.

    What's fuckin with me at this point is how he's a crafty lefty on top of all the other shit. That's impossible to deal with. Shaq meets Barkley meets Willis Reed

    Couldn't believe how easily he was scoring on Adams last night. Moving him out of the way with ease. Give me Memphis at the 8....no thanks to New Orleans/Portland.

    Hope you're right. Only role player I really trust on the road is Green..maybe Dwight and double maybe Rondo

    Lakers would have the winner of that series in the 2nd round. Would you rather face the Clips/ROX in the 2nd round or conference finals?

    I'm okay with that....either way, going to have to get through them. The Nuggets/Jazz aren't contenders in my eyes.

    Rockets are the lone team I can see upsetting the Clippers. And if that happens, I don't see the Lakers losing to them in a best of 7. I know what happened at LA recently, but the Rockets would have to shoot out of their shoes the entire series to overcome the obvious mismatches down low. I'm sure LeBron would wise up and drive more instead of chucking 8 3s.

    Given the mileage of a few of these dudes, may actually serve the team better if they meet the Clips in the 2nd round. Clear that bar a little earlier.

    As much as the ROX have a chance to upset the Clips, probably have similar odds of being swept or beat by the Clips in 5. It's a Harden/Westbrook-led team, after all. Both could shoot the ROX out of every game and no one would be surprised - and of course, D'antoni doesn't adjust a whole lot. And if the Clips have the Lakers in the next round, they're not gonna want to fuck around with the ROX for long

    Took the tragic death of Kobe Bryant to improve the all-star game.

    AD FTW

    Turned into the 90's slow grind style of play in the 4th. Lowry taking charges, guys rotating on D, closing out on 3pt shooters and getting back in transition.

    Pretty solid for a game that doesn't really mean shit - a game nobody wants to get injured in. Think Kobe would nod his head in approval. Should stick with this format

    Seeing the best players in the world play all out on both ends of the floor with no end in sight was very cool.


    Most of the game before that was the usual no defense, easy shot BS that we see in an All Star game. But the 4th was the perfect tribute to Kobe. Never seen players get pissed off at refs in an all star game before

    Silver isn't perfect but he's looking amazing compared to the shithead running baseball.

    You know it was a solid watch when Harden was making big defensive plays

    CP3 has never seen a ref he didn't want to kill Lol

    Moe Harkless has been solid for a few years now. If the Knicks buy him out - Lakers need that action for Kawhi

    Not to mention the revenge factor with the Clippers dumping him in the Morris deal.

    Feels like it could be that under the radar Ariza type of move that Kupchak made years back.

    Do wish he were a better shooter, but he's not completely devoid of a shot. If he can hit timely, open shots - coo

    You missed out.
    Best all star game since hector was a pup.
    The first 3 quarters were each their own minigame so once a team got out in front it became a showcase for the players and fans.
    Fourth quarter being a brand new contest with different rules almost turned into a legit streetball game.
    They should have added a rule that you can't win a game at the free throw line.
    Although that is nit picking because it came down to the wire and felt organic not staged.
    Kobe would been trying to kill everyone and score buckets.
