Starters for the 2024 NBA All-Star game most of them fairly obvious picks uh in the East Giannis embiid Jason Tatum that’s your starting forwards and then Tyrese halberton and Damen Lillard sneaks in there in the back yeah a little surprising I know we’re going to get to picking our actual reserves here

But just any uh takeaways thoughts on the starters there in the East Tas Millis the tie goes to the fans that’s what happened with Damen Lillard because it isn’t just a fans vote that matters it’s 50% fans 25% to the media 25% to the players and there was a tie there

Was a tie the East guards are extremely strong he tied with Brunson specifically jayen Brunson of the New York Knicks uh but the fans the fans picked Lillard first so he gets in yeah we’re going to get to the East guards that’s going to

Be that’s going to be a race um but of course we’re going to get them in all in on the reserves I do believe but for two years we’ve been telling Nicks fans to go uh vote for their guy Jaylen Brunson and it actually you know there was some

Uh impact this year because if he had more votes if he was higher up he got a higher you know love from the players of media he would have been starting but yeah the tie goes to Dame uh what do you think TK yeah like nearly a million more

Votes for Damen Lillard over Jaylen Brunson but I thought Brunson had a great response he’s like Lillard deserves it it’s his first time starting an All-Star game that’s crazy and his numbers they’re still really good they’re not the Damen Lillard and Portland that we’re used to but the

Bucks despite firing their coach this week they’re still second in the Eastern Conference like you can make a case obviously uh for Damen Lillard so um as long as Jaylen Brunson gets a start at some point I think it will be water under the bridge but he took it the

Right way and I kind of agree with what our friend Jason concepion said on Twitter last night uh we elected juliani and Eric Adams New York is not good at voting good point good point uh so okay let’s go to the west then the starters LeBron Kevin

Durant and uh jic are the starters in the forwards position Luca and Shay gilis Alexander will be on the floor when the ball is tipped in the back court so yes all 10 starters have made All-Star games before and uh Shay is maybe the one that surprised some people

That he edged out Luca actually in both the media and player votes and he beat Steph Curry in both category categories and almost caught him in the fan vote so he gets the start there um I guess Edwards beat Steph in the media vote as well that maybe helped uh Shay chances

Uh to get that starting spot too any thoughts on that well Shay being there fantastic stuff just period I think what it comes down to is just getting your name in the All-Star game having that in your credential having that on your resume and Jaylen Brunson better damn be

There in the Eastern Conference and it’s just great to see Shay be there I can understand why Shay trumped Steph in many ways I I get that um although the fans pick Steph and want to see him there he will be picked as a reserve um even though Shay won those other two

Categories uh we will see step there and LeBron set the record for most NBA Allstar selections with 20 yeah that’s absurd two decades I feel like is it does this sound weird because it’s LeBron and we talk about LeBron all the time but like this is not really being

Talked about as much as I think it would be maybe because last year he tied the record and this is just a formality but my God 20 straight years a streak that began in 2005 in his second NBA season and uh here he is starting another one

TK yeah I’m I’m going back and looking at the old pictures of LeBron carrying a PlayStation into a game they’re on a PlayStation 5 now man that’s amazing 20 years of starting in the allstar game and I mean he will be starting until he decides to retire I

Don’t think we’re going to get to a dirk nitzki Zone a Dwayne Wade Zone even a Michael Jordan with the wizard Zone where he didn’t start his last All-Star game until Vince Carter was pressured into starting his All-Star Game it feels like LeBron will just continue leading

The vote until he decides to hang it up okay so that’s the starters again all 10 of these guys uh have made previous All-Star games um you know from LeBron making 19 prior to Shay making one prior but they’re all back in the big game as the starters but let’s get to the

Reserves that’s what everybody wants to talk about get into our debates about who you leave in off who gets in Tass you have the challenge here of the Eastern Conference you’re picking the seven reserves we’re going with the coaches type ballot the two guards three forwards two wild cards um how much did

You struggle with this exercise last night when you were putting together your team oh I got very difficult at the end especially at the end we we’ll get there but at the beginning I think it is a little bit easier start with the two guard spots I started with Don V

Mitchell over Jaylen Bruton how dare I but Don V Mitchell has been fantastic he could have been starting over Damen Lillard in all honesty I picked him over Brunson we’ll get to Maxi a little bit later when it comes to the wild cards but he’s been carrying the Cavs since

The injuries began and look at these numbers he’s become better and more efficient in more of a star role with Darius Garland out and have mle out U but Mitchell has averaging 28 and8 assists and better shooting numbers 59% true shooting percentage since those injuries happened and he’s on the

Seventh highest us usage rate in the NBA so he’s become a superstar anyways he deserves to be there he’s there Jaylen Brunson will take the other guard spot the guy is an absolute machine uh I just love watching him play he barrels into guys to create space every single game

So he’s just fun he may not be the most athletic super duper jump over you but uh the four seat is theirs in New York he’s taking it and he’s the best player on that team so he gets there moving over to the forward spots my first forward I picked was bam

Atab bio because he’s been phenomenal he’s one of the League’s best defenders and then the numbers hello 21 10 and 4.4 assist all career highs shooting 50% from the floor he got over there easily more than uh Jimmy Butler who missed 33% of the Heats games but he was my best

Forward in the Eastern Conference which was a little surprising to me moving on Jaylen Brown is there okay um he’s the second best player on the best team in the conference easily to me I I know porzingis is fantastic I know Derrick White’s been fantastic I know Drew

Holiday has been fantastic on the Celtics but he’s efficient and he defends extremely well so moving on to the third final spot on the on the forwards this was a little tough Randall or Scotty Barnes or Paulo banero it all came down to but uh Randall was the easy

Decision at the end it wasn’t easy I take it back but uh I like the barreling Bros with him and Jaylen Brunson they just Barrel into all of the everybody and uh he’s got incredible scoring and rebounding and efficiency that’s better than Scotty Barnes that’s better than PA

Buero and he’s got more wins so you know it was it wasn’t easy but that’s where it came down to wild cards two more spot we got two more spots here Maxi clearly should be there with the Philadelphia 76ers he deserves to be there he could have been above Brunson or Mitchell if

You if you really wanted but he’s the second best player on the third seed he scores a ton assists efficient plays the most minutes in the freaking League okay now the last one okay the wild card for me at the beginning was Barnes banero or Trey Trey young has had some

Incredible numbers but the first decipher his wins Trey needed to say goodbye uh because he also it comes down to the defender also kicked off Trey on this position in in this scenario here because Barnes is damn good at that banero is damn good at that too actually

The field goal percentage of guys he guards are pretty low the three-point percentage on shots he defends are among the best so came to Barnes or buero Barnes B Carol Barnes or B Caro it was wasn’t easy um so I turned I turned I turned and uh Barnes has more rebounds

Assists steals blocks although B Carrol scores a lot Barnes numbers through all those categories rebounds assist Steels blocks a little surprising better than b Caro he’s way more efficient than b Caro 57.5% to 53.6 6% in true shooting percentage but do wins matter the question just threw Trey young out for

Wins yeah I’m not more than the I’m not done I threw out Trey because he doesn’t defend the way Scotty Barnes does he freaking he’s he is he’s a behemoth on that end blocking shots stealing shots so it really did come down to uh it come

Down to wins the Raptors are 12 games under 500 is it siakam’s fault who who could I blame and put Scott put Scotty Barnes on the team I am taking B Caro it was freaking tough um because Scotty Barnes is damn good but yeah being 12

Games under 500 I know we tend to put guys on starting lineups or I’m sorry On All-Star lineups even if they have losing teams these days um but uh I I I I I guess I deciphered when I saw Barnes on there lots of losses Trey on there

Lots of losses so I went with Banker over him there’s lots of other snubs uh that we’ll get to that should probably just be at Allstar Weekend but anyway okay so p is your final wild card so C there over like you said Barnes Trey young maybe some of those other Celtics

Guys so you remov Jimmy Butler from consideration just uh in terms of only playing like 65% of his team yeah he’s missed a third of his games yeah that’s not good and Chris class Jimmy thing yeah it’s getting it’s getting it’s getting Wilder and Wilder it’s becoming

More straining I think on on his team 33% it’s a lot I know they’re just numbers like he is a great player but I I I put bam on on there because they’re nearly a top 10 defense and it’s all bam um he’s been so good you know I went

With numbers as well when I looked at Christof porzingis oh he’s missed a quarter of the games that’s a lot of games it is a fair amount of games um so they’ll make the second team we’re putting the second team in there just get the snubs there Eastern snubs play

The Eastern Allstar the Western snubs play the Western Allstars then the winners meet at the end because we want a great Sunday I I didn’t even realize that Joe Dumars VP of the NBA he talked to the players before the season and said we need a better Sunday we need a

Better All-Star Weekend Ty Tyrese halber is gonna be there he said the allstar game sucked last year his his first one but Dumar has literally said we talked to players about putting on a great show on the last night on Sunday night actually getting out there and competing that’s what they

Want snubs versus Allstars would be good I don’t know if that’s going to work here kind what they do for rising stars now they got a tournament I love Joe Dumars the disappointed dad of the NBA he just needs to lecture the players every now and then so that we try a

Little bit harder and that’s why went to four quarters that are basically just 12 minutes now they’ve gone away from the the El amending they’re just it’s just a game again MH so just play hard at least for a decent amount of it exactly okay so uh tas’s Eastern Conference reserves

Uh the guards were Donovan Mitchell Jaylen Brunson the forwards bam at a bio Jaylen Brown Julius Randall gets that last spot then you had Tyrese Maxi as a no-brainer wild card and that last one you went back and forth back and forth back and forth but in the end palero is

On T’s teams how did that stack up to your East reserves I assume a lot of similar names but maybe difference yeah yeah yeah six of seven I would say are the same my locks definitely Brunson and Mitchell in the back court my front Court guys bam Jaylen Brown and Julius

Randall and then I also thought Tyrese Maxi is a lock as a wild card so it came down at the end for me to Pao banero just like Tas uh porzingis is in the mix for me cuz I think he might actually be the Celtic second best player but he’s

Missed significant time and he rolled his ankle again last night so not great um but I’m going with Trey young I’m putting him in the numbers are kind of undeniable to me 27 points a game and 11 assists shooting 36% from three he’s given his best effort defensively I

Agree it hasn’t translated to defensive performance for the Hawks or for enough wins for the Hawks but man 27 points and 11 assists yeah that’s hard to to look past uh meanwhile Pao Bano kind of in the same situation he’s got to do everything for the magic he’s at 23 a

Game five assists he’s awesome I really wanted to make a case for Paulo but when I threw it in stat head it just didn’t hold up uh yeah and I I feel like if this was done a month ago it’s a no-brainer pal in but the magic did

Start to slide a little bit I think some of that had to do with fron vogner’s injury yeah Pal’s efficiency started to dip more and more and more so I can see why you struggle to either have them on or off um so you’re going with Trey

Young you get into this whole dilemma here right especially when it comes like to the last couple spots at what point is is it better to have a complimentary player like a Derek white let’s say or a porzingis like a complimentary player on a really good team or the leading man uh

For the lack of a better term on a sort of bad team be it a Trey young be it a Scotty Barnes uh and like those type of guys that’s where you go you know you go back and forth but and then there’s the whole Jimmy Butler thing which I mean if

You’re just saying who’s the best player in the East jimy Butler is going to be on a lot of people’s list but like like last year right similar situation where he missed a a decent amount of time and was left off the All-Star team if I remember correctly um so he’s always a

He’s just his own thing he’s an easy elimination for me because he sucks in All-Star games he does not care at all to be at an allstar game he would rather go on vacation yeah uh and then the only other name I think maybe what about this

Guy that was sort of I guess slipped in there as a as a joke but Pascal cakam the numbers are still good he can’t hit a three to save his life but obviously now on Indiana 22 six and five I mean those are good num numbers this is a a

Really talented player so he’d be the final guy I think that would be in the running Jared Allen also a fantastic season okay okay we will have discussions about him in the defensive player of the year contest he has been phenomenal I think we got to all the

Snubs though okay there you go um let’s move to the Western Conference then and uh Trey you’re leading this one was this more difficult or easier than the East more difficult uh for me I think there are the last spot particularly in both conferences is where it comes down to

Right like think they’re pretty locked in on six players for the most part but there are so many guys who could easily make it in the Western Conference and the cases are pretty hilarious because there’s a lot of mid teams in the western conference with like huge

Numbers like I don’t know what to do with Anthony Davis man this guy’s having one of the best seasons in the league and he’s playing and he’s playing all the time and dominating when he’s out there but the winds aren’t rolling for the Lakers and you know do they get two

All Stars we shall see star in the back court though Steph Curry didn’t get voted in Easy lock for me okay not having his greatest season I blame Draymond few were wins for the Warriors and Steph went into a slump when Draymond was off the court because

Draymond sets Steph up for a lot of his shots uh you saw Draymond and Steph last night doing their thing against the Kings what an incredible game that was but Curry easy you we know he’s going to be there anyways he’s got some other things planned that’s true we’ll that

We’ll get to that later yeah Anthony Edwards you’re an All-Star okay that was easy one best player on the best team in the Western Conference lock him in okay I guess now I have to move to the front Court my only lock in the front Court

Kawh Leonard I feel like there are so many front Court lot of like there’s like a list of like eight guys so you’re like yeah he could be there he six centers easily exactly okay but you have kawhai as a lock as locked in you know definitely a

Slow start to the Clippers season but then once they got their legs under him with James Harden Ka is looked like the best player in the league at times I mean obviously joic is the man but kawai’s throwing it back and the Clippers have been one of the best teams

In the league for basically two months at this point yeah kawhai averaging 24 6 and four shooting 44% from deep and kawhai also never turns the ball over like he never hurts you in that category so and he’s playing like you keep bringing up Tas and he’s actually

Playing in you know back Tob backs and playing a lot of minutes okay so Qui my next two in for the front court that had to make it on Meritt and case Larry marinan wo okay okay 24 points a game eight rebounds two assists he’s shooting 49 from the field 39 from three

87 at the line you’re telling me a guy’s averaging 24 a game on 50 40 90 so feeling very Dirk like feeling very Dirk like I was hoping to see that his record when he played was different than the Jazz’s record when they play

But they’re 23 and 23 and 18 and 18 when Markin in’s on the floor so okay could have been better but he has been great I’m surprised I thought he was going to be a oneandone kind of Allstar and it wasn’t the smoothest start to the season

Uh for marinin but he’s good he’s just a really good player uh next I’m surprising myself on this one damont sabonis je welcome to my All-Star team okay you’re surprising me here with these picks I love it curveballs yeah hey hey heyy sure JD loves the sound of

That uh bonus highest riser for me when I was making my short list I didn’t even put him on the list and then I went and looked at stuff this guy’s averaging 20 points a game 13 rebounds and eight assists he’s leading the league in rebounding shooting 61% from the field

He is shooting 43 from three that’s not really a part of his game but at least he’s knocking him down uh when he gets the attempt sabonis is not one of my favorite guys to watching an All-Star game but he’s there for me right now okayy look numbers are ridiculously

Numbers are crazy yeah yeah it’s like every second game it’s like uh sabonis lead Kings with a triple double T trip dou yeah yeah it’s again there’s I know you’re going to go through a bunch of other names so he’s like that’s the crazy part you ask 10 other people to do

This you know eight other people probably don’t even have sabonis as one of the sort of locks as you called it for your for your front Court position you don’t even have them as a wild card um because there’s just so many guys but uh you got low marinin sabonis and Kawai

There as your forwards weird I mean you do love rebounding so that makesense I do love rebounding uh and I’ll say this damont sabonis best screener in the NBA oh boy come fight me he won the game against the warriors with the screen I’ll explain later all

Right here’s another lock for me as a wild card Devin Booker yeah okay okay I was getting a little nervous there but yeah yeah okay I I got him behind Curry and Edwards in the back court but Booker to me an easy Wild Card pick so does

That add up right that’s three so far four five six I got one last spot yep you’re right it’s tough M yeah Paul George he’s in the mix okay Anthony Davis he’s in the mix yes Rudy goar he’s in the mix sure Carl Anthony towns same

Team he’s in the mix sure Darren Fox he’s in the mix 276 and four alprin shenon they put him in the mix and I’m even throwing chat and wemy in there just cuz it’s fun to discuss them at this point so where do you go where do you go

T I’ve been debating hard my top two choices Paul George and Anthony Davis Anthony Davis better numbers worst team Papa Johns Paul George longtime hater of this guy he’s been straight up dragging the Clippers to some of these wins but I’m staying with all curve balls here

SKS I’m going Rudy goar is my last holy [ __ ] who is this guy man what is wrong with your I don’t know I don’t know defense and an allstar game that is not the Trey cury I know wow look the timber wolves are in first place because

They’re the best defense in the league and he’s is going to win defensive player of the year yeah yes yes that is true we can have one guy out there that cares about defense this is amazing I know what a dumb team I’m picking here

But goar you’re in you’re in for me holy crap so the so the painful ones that get left off dearon Fox Anthony Davis Paul George Paul George yeah Paul George is averaging 266 and4 and his shooting splits are 47 42 and 91 and he’s a great defender still that’s I mean he’s

Basically Kawai those are that’s like kawhai like numbers they’re almost identical that’s a it’s a tough admission but yeah yeah yeah okay anyone else on that ooh tough to leave off you said those three well I think what Trey is sort of building here are good teams that have been good all season

Long but have you know one player you you get shoved in there like low marinin which was a little bit of surprise to bonus only one player from the Sacramento Kings I mean Booker sneaks in has a second son cuz Uh Kevin Durant got in there so

Uh but you don’t want Anthony Davis in there it’s a 500 team I do want Anthony Davis I do really want him in there he team if they were five games over 500 I’d have him over go I think yeah he’s like 25 12 and four and it’s like

Arguably I mean goar will might win the award yes but he is Anthony Davis is still a top three defender in the league you know probably Rudy bam ad maybe and whatever order when you’re looking at the center position and the the numbers are just damn good for Anthony Davis

Obviously played a lot so it’s hard to leave him off but um you know you got to respect the other players the fact that he’s played in 44 games is almost surprising yeah so so how would you differ here in in the Western Conference reserves well well I don’t know um I I

Think I would sneak in Anthony Davis there uh right at the end over Rudy goar okay but I don’t mind the Lowry I don’t mind the sabonis and I like the book especially because book got a little screwed last year because he was a little bit injured he

Deserved to be an all NBA player he deserved to be everything so I like I don’t mind Curry Edwards kawhai Lowry sabonis book and I think I’m going to Anthony Davis sorry Paul George you can set up Podcast p in any hallway and have every NBA player on your podcast but

Paul George gets screwed every year it seems like by by people who pick their picks not necessarily by coaches but everybody I was going to say Paul George’s made a lot of Allstar teams he might make this one too as we’ve debated here previously but everybody keeps him

Off other than the coaches really oh man I guess I I like your I like a lot of your guards that you picked for sure um Steph I am just not at the point yet where I feel comfortable leaving Steph Curry off of an All-Star game so he’s in

Anthony Edwards is a no-brainer I believe Devon Booker is a no-brainer there as a wild card sure Kawai yes it’s then the final three that you had Markin in sabonis and rud it’s like ad Paul George I feel like I maybe have in over a lot of those guys

At least over you know two of them I think Rudy’s out for me sabonis is there and then I go ad Paul George Lowry Markin and I think just started he just started too slow and then the guy is kicking ass recently so timing is everything with this so maybe he gets in

You said Chad he’s like the Western Conference version of porzingis sort of with what he does we didn’t even say the two guys on the Pelicans who are just going to be on the outside looking in I’m so Zion and Brandon Ingram like they’re the classic they’re really good

But 22 a game and this economy and right same thing with Jamal Murray he’s come on late like we talked about but he’s the second best player on on the team cat the fact I don’t mind sneaking in Go I mean yeah Harden has the third man

Option there uh he is the third he is third he’s not an Eastern Conference I’ll say that no um Kyrie Irving has missed a lot of games I do like the fact of sneaking Rudy in there because Timber rolles are still the one seat in the

Western Conference so to put two guys in there I know it’s just traditional crap get a second guy in there but he’s damn good um towns Town’s numbers are freaking phenomenal and at 22 points the the percentages are ridiculous he’s having a career-high three-point percentage in his career almost 44% the

Best seven foot shooting guy in the freaking NBA the problem is though if ANS a no-brainer which he seems to be for everyone yeah and then it’s like it’s like cat or Rudy sort of cannibalize each other a little bit I think and so then you’re just left going

Well maybe I’ll just leave them both off and go some other some other way uh and some other guy that’s deserving to yeah it’s tough It’s very very difficult uh I know people are uh sounding off here in the Stream team let us know in the

YouTube comments tweet at us uh who we got right who we got wrong how we did explaining all that cuz it gets really confusing too let’s be honest when we got three guys trying to pick their teams we aged on some but yeah um is ad

On your team is Paul George is it Lowry marinan sabonis no yeah where’s Fox where’s Jamal Jaylen Williams there’s another one about this guy not yet too soon for jayen yeah J J will be there in a couple years I wonder if the inseason tournament helped Anthony Davis’s chance

Of being here just his finals in the in the inseason tournament he was freaking amazing didn’t factor into his stats unfortunately no right that’s a good play that count be balling even harder I might have made the most unwatchable All-Star team of all time you you really

Surprised me with you you started off with a low Mark and I was like whoa I wasn’t ready for that but okay then you went sabonis okay and then yeah the Rudy goar the the cherry on the Sunday for TK in the Western Conference just imagine a lineup of yic marinin sabonis goar

And like the most boring possible Allstar lineup cool tune in for my I like it I like the snubs team is definitely more interesting to watch yeah we could build a massive third All-Star team here we could have the starters and the entire uh you know reserves maybe we’ll save that for for

Next week we’ll actually just straight up build the uh the snub team let’s set up that tournament let’s set up Western snubs they’re so damn good and they are best better than the Eastern snubs okay I will say all right well we got to take a break uh when we come back though

We’re going to uh talk a little bit about last night’s games we’ll throw around the slop a little bit and uh we got some Allstar uniforms to discuss so don’t go anywhere yeah that’s the sound of a sale on Shopify my old friend yes Shopify is the global Commerce platform that helps

In Indianapolis uh all right let’s get into some fill-in-the blank fun here yeah I got a bunch of topics I thought why not fill in the blank here and first one allows us to look back at some of last night’s action um I don’t know who wants to get started but best

Game from Thursday night was blank Tas what do you got try at it Kings Warriors for me was phenomenal they’ve had three one-point games this season number three yesterday H Kings have won two of them why former Warrior Scotty Barnes Scotty Barnes Harrison Barnes all the Barnes uh

Was just raining down shots career high 39 against his old team for the Sacramento Kings I know there’s been a lot of talk H do we trade Harrison Barnes we get a better power for a guy’s turning it on at the right time 24 Shots in this one the most of the

Season he had seven threes coming off a 32-point game The Warriors decided oh we got to get the ball out of his hands they started to double him a little bit but he was he was scorching clay he was just so good it was just a crazy crazy

Game down the wire the warriors were up one 30 seconds left Kings missed and then Steph Curry had a rebound but his back was on the Baseline so he was called out of Bounce cuz it it was on the basine line but he got up to grab

The rebound yeah was so close like his jersey maybe was touching the line if he sat up one Split Second earlier he just gets a rebound on the ground it’s all good he was looking like the Undertaker right back to wrestling as he rose up but yeah that was that was bang bang

Call there yeah and if Curry gets it up one they win this game probably but then sabonis gets a dunk on a weird defense falling asleep kind of thing great pass from herder though it was a great pass it’s time to talk about the screen yeah the screen on that monster screen by

Damont sabonis Curry cannot get around it so then somebody else has to take his guy which is herder in the corner yeah Steph is on sabonis is back he flies to the hoop herder great pass sets him up for the easy dunk big men out there

Screen to get open screen to get open shout out to Pat mcnam that was huge was awesome it was a great inbound play Draymond Green did have to go to herder in the corner um I get that was it herder in the corner it was her in the

The pass yeah yeah it was a great pass herder goes to the corner Draymond Green goes there but Wiggins was on the inbounder he was just kind of there did nothing so he could have you know woken up a little bit um but it was wild then

Kam goes the other side gets blocked by Barnes but Sacramento gets filed and Kevin herder miss two free throws two fre throw like an 80% free throw shooter yeah so then the Warriors it felt like they were going to call a timeout down one and Steve Kerr was signaling for one

But it didn’t happen so they up and Curry kind of gets doubled and gets the ball out of his hands instead of going to Draymond Green you know the classic four on three give it to Draymond Green and let’s just break it apart because Draymond Green was phenomenal on this

Night 11 assists I don’t get why he comes off the bench I guess maybe because he’s coach of the bench guys in this scenario because Chris Paul is out it’s still a little strange to me because the kings were amazing right out the gate they scored 40 in the first

Quarter without Draymond on the floor for for much of it because he’s coming off the bench but luckily C Curry had eight 18 in the quarter 33 overall I I still think the Warriors have some life it is it is good for them I guess to see the rockets falling out a

Little bit they’re two games out of a a playin game a playin spot but Kings Warriors just phenomal going back to the last year’s playoffs it’s just so fun I I botched it when I did uh my top five NBA Rivals week games I left this one

Off I thought n they can’t live up to the hype that we’ve seen from these games prior I was like no they’re due for a stinker and so I I skipped that one I focused on other games I should have had it on there uh yeah they play

They play entertaining games it was like a playoff atmosphere in that in that Barn last night when it was like the final five minutes and they’re trading baskets also shout out to dearen Fox I think he learned his lesson lesson when Damen Lillard hit a huge three on him

When he went a little too under didn’t get up on the uh on the perimeter player enough he didn’t do that at Curry here when there was no time out call he was up on him and that led to Curry sort of bobbling the ball and fox getting the

Steel I thought that was uh well done done from him he’s like I’m not letting that happen to me again I’m not especially with curry uh who you know obviously can pull from anywhere like Damen so that was a great game do you have any other games to fill in the

Blank there just a couple of more things on uh on this game Jonathan kaminga needs to start why is Andrew wiggin still starting over kaminga 31 for kaminga last night after an 11 for 11 game doesn’t make sense that he’s probably been their second best player and he’s

Coming off the bench um so that’s strange to me and I just thought that was so resilient by the Kings to actually come back and win that game cuz kaminga caught the oop from Curry on the behind the back what a play then the next time down they run like a little

Inbounds Draymond finds kaminga inside he dunks it it’s their first lead of the second half Chase Center is going wild but they got the win that was great um from the Kings as for me this was not the best game but you had it as a Rivals week

Game SKS what is going on with the Miami Heat they lost to the Celtics last night by 33 points the heat had generally been like a Celtics Boogeyman and so far two convincing wins against Miami for Boston and B and Miami’s really struggling this season against the best teams in the

League they’re 17 and seven against teams that are under 500 nice you got to beat the teams you can beat they’re only seven and 14 against teams over 500 in January 5-8 minus 6.5 Point differential they’re 28th in offense basically they have a really weak division that they’re

Stacking up wins against they’re 9 and against the magic Hawks hornets and wizards you should be winning those games that’s how they’re doing it their best wins this season they beat the Lakers twice fully healthy Lakers that’s nice they smoked the Cavs in Cleveland but no Donovan Mitchell no bam for the

Heat and then they beat the 76ers without embiid they don’t have a ton of quality wins and I can’t tell if I’m just getting suckered and rope doed once again by the Miami Heat or is this team actually stinky I mean are they going to have to come out of the play in

Tournament again I kind of think so right because New York to me has surpassed Miami at least from a regular season standpoint we know the heat are going to be a different team in the postseason but so far we’ve seen the Knicks improve we’ve seen the Pacers improve bringing in Pascal cakam who

Knows what’s going on with the Cavs they’re playing really well right now the schedule’s not great and they’re looking good and will be getting guys back soon it’s pretty likely that the heat could end up in that seventh seed yep once again they lost their first

Game in the play in tournament last year they were beat by the Bulls until the last 3 minutes of the game it’s a risky way to live yeah yeah yeah and you mentioned the Indiana Pacers among that sort of second tier you know from the Boston Milwaukee Philadelphia first TI

If you call it that and the Pacers destroyed the Sixers yesterday a Joel MB team I know Maxi was out and so it looked a little different but they put up points so the the heat started their 25th starting lineup Yesterday by inserting Terry Rosier and obviously there’s some problems uh overall they

Were down 11 points at half and I thought thought that’s good for the Heat against the Boston sou how good they look but then they tore it up in the in the second half yeah it’s very difficult I understand T Ros you’re not looking good you know just working his way in

Maybe that’s it I don’t know uh I I don’t have answer but maybe the heat just do this every year I was going to say proceed with caution with this team but you’re right they don’t look great especially over a good chunk of the Season here that also happened last year

Uh and then they obviously come uh you know and surprise everybody in that first round matchup against the Bucks be amazing if they once again are like the eighth seed coming out of the play and are taking on probably the Boston Celtics in that case in a one eight

Matchup um something happened in this five game losing streak because they were 24 and 16 they pretty pretty damn good all right well uh let’s move to our next topic here the slop is slinging right now uh the Bulls want buan bogdanovich and a blue chip player from

The Pistons for Zack LaVine you got that slop uh dejonte Murray to the Lakers rumors they’re intensifying I don’t know D’Angelo Russell might be going back to the Nets that’s the type of slop I’m seeing the Kings have expressed interest in Nets forwards like Dorian finy Smith and Royce O’Neal

So I want you to tell me Trey you get to start here first juiciest trade rumor slop right now is what it’s Zack LaVine because I thought the trough was dry SKS then James Edwards filled it up with corn cobs and eggs delicious yeah we’ll see uh some it

Feels like negotiating through the media going on right now because we got James Edward reporting like you’re saying that the Bulls want buan bogdanovich and one of these good guys right from from Detroit Detroit says no we’re not that dumb we’re not that dumb we did see Zack

LaVine score 51 points with zero assists and a loss against us but we’re not that dumb then we got Casey Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago saying the Bulls have engaged in conversations with several teams on LaVine no talks including the Pistons have grown serious in nature at

This point and the Bulls haven’t moved off their stance of seeking a strong return for LaVine not looking to move him simp as a cost-saving move or an addition by subtraction kind of thing right fair enough they don’t necessarily have to make a move for Zack LaVine if

They don’t like the deals that are out there but the deals probably aren’t getting better as time goes on as much as I like to say the Bulls are a good team now they’ve played 40 something games and they’re just mid guys they’re just mid right they’re simply mid that’s

Okay that’s where the Bulls want to be which is why they could easily stand path the Bulls do not make a ton of moves period like we remember the vo trade we remember getting D rozan and Lonzo ball and then since then not a whole lot has been going on in Chicago

But I at least had my snout perked up when I saw that there were some LaVine rumors because now that Pascal siakam’s been traded oan noi’s been traded Murray and LaVine are the next two names who could be moving somewhere and it actually feels like maybe something could happen with LaVine well

This little piggy I saw the tweets uh working the trade machine Trey Kirby throwing out yesterday just checking some math as you wrote Zack LaVine and Alex Caruso to the Sixers for Tobias Harris and Marcus Morris Senor that works or or Bogdan bogdanovich and Deonte Murray to the Sixers for Tobias

Harris and Marcus Morris senior yeah those guys rested last night o why yeah that’s the slop talking yeah the slop got you you got talking about eggs and corn cobs I didn’t believe eggs in the trough but now I’m starting to feel it uh after all these Zack LaVine rumors I

Think Zack LaVine is is yeah the guy that I tend to lean towards even though the Bulls do not need to trade him absolutely not and maybe they get more for him when he looks like Zack LaVine who is one of the best scorers in the

Game and he hasn’t been that for a while that being said if you get a really really juicy pick if the Detroit Pistons are willing to give up one of their picks not necessarily buan bogdanovich who surprises me every time that he’s still doing what he used to be doing

When he used to drop 44 career high 48 he looks freaking good but he is turning 35 pretty freaking soon how long can he play for with that bald spot on his head uh how long can you play for another five years for the Bulls I do I do sort

Of lean Zack LaVine being moved though because the Kobe white thing is really working out for them pretty damn well if they started the season with with that sort of idea around their team but who knows dear as well I mean it’s it’s endless uh for the Bulls so it’s it

Feels like that that’s the big one that’s going to happen well that one tray through out in all honesty line and Caruso to the Sixers for Tobias Harris and Morris Senor like Philly’s got to contemplate doing that right yeah I mean that’s not bad those are two really good

Players um like look Tobias Harris is he’s just always there and he’s always solid I mean a little bit like Harrison burns like has these really good games has some like obviously games where maybe you don’t hear from him much but I think I think there’s there’s something

There um if if the Bulls are really you know desperate to get off the four-year contract of Zack LaVine yeah and according to Casey he’s saying they’re not going to do it just to salary dumping but you know if the offers aren’t there at some point they might

Have to do uh a John Collins style trade so if they can get a pick involved that’d be great and I do think in general the Sixers probably need to upgrade their number three guy Maxi is such a good off ball player that it kind of gets lost because he’s great with the

Ball but like as a catch and shoot dude there’s not a lot of guys that are better than Tyrese Maxi is so it’ be nice if somebody could be setting him up as well yeah I just don’t know why the Bulls would do it if if you don’t say a

Juicy pick is coming from somewhere you want Tobias Harris for Zack LaVine that’s essentially what you’re saying and that’s fine getting off of a ton of money yeah you get a pick in there or something but uh yeah I could see Zack being moved for sure okay let’s get off

The slop we’re all dirty now uh let’s look at some uh some new jerseys cuz the League official Al unveiled the 2024 NBA All-Star Game uniforms uh in the return of the East versus West format the uniforms celebrate the league and Rich history basketball Rich basketball history excuse me of Indiana Tess 2024

NBA All-Star Game uniforms are blank how you filling that in they’re a Kindle they’re there to start the fire the fire the fire will happen on Sunday night listen I think they’re Kindle that sounds like cool slang man I think you just created a new slang Kindle fits

Kindle yeah I’m a Kindle baby I like fires um maybe it’s watching Survivor with you guys uh maybe it’s pretending to be the the fire attendant and start fires myself um I think they’re good is what the word Kindle is there for but are they excellent nah only if the game

Is excellent I think they’re just really really solid hold on you’re going to go back and grade these uniforms depending on how the game goes FAS because I do like them I they’re really traditional to me they’re they’re screaming history as you said um but people are going to

Be like I don’t want this you think you think they’re good they’re good I think they’re good I I like I do like them yeah Trey what do you think yeah I also think they’re good creamy a little I like like the addition of the cream trim what is this Cream

City hey I’m always a fan of pin stripes they’re kind of basic yeah but you know like the 80s and 9s uh All-Star uniforms weren’t always San Antonio or Phoenix style like crazy with chil peppers all over them and that kind of stuff a lot of those back in the day were pretty

Understated and that’s what these are they look nice yeah I I’m a fan overall I mean we’ve had some really bad recent NBA jerseys too so the bar was quite low and these are just absolutely okay you know I like the Pinstripes I like the colors I like that little cream touch uh

You know I like I do like that logo that they’re using for All-Star in Indiana so they’ve sort of uh made that prominent I know there’s um there’s a I guess a warm-up jacket that you were tweeting that looked like uh you know Smashmouth would have rocked rest in peace um so

Yeah it’s good it’s good it fits the vibe of the hoer themed you know Indiana Vibe that’s a good point yeah and so when we discussed this a few weeks ago and Trey said the same thing pin stripes are beautiful was it a full announcement then or that was

Theak Le man that cream was leaking and that’s when we oh no oh no oh spill my cream I am a little surprised though okay they did um in 2021 they did Indiana Pacers jerseys because they were going to host the All-Star Game Co happened it ended up having to be in

Atlanta but they were like yellow and blue with like kind of the 80s look of the Pacers um somewhere to one of the shirts we did you can get at no dunks. true true but I’m a little surprised they didn’t do something based on the flojo jerseys those are like the most

Iconic Pacers jerseys out there so maybe a rising stars will get that one I don’t know mhm interesting yeah that’s a good point oh yeah true do do young people like Pinstripes just one one Qui quick question cuz it’s like wow I love Pinstripes but I’ve been loving them for

A long time so I just wonder it’s a fair point yeah those are that’s a that’s a very faint pinstripe you know it’s not super prominent but I don’t know if the kids like pin stripes I don’t know how to answer that and that’s a little

Pacers Z too right the old the the old Pinstripes so why not do look good all right next one final one here in fill in the blank RTG features is partner partnering with Arts organization Heartland film to launch the first annual slam Film Festival dedicated to basketball themed movies the festival

Flashback of one scene in hust where doc walks into the court along with Dave jger and I thought oh yeah just replay the movie get and if you want to get wo out there bring him on the Bucks as well I mean just make it a whole half he’s

Playing Greece though doing his thing in Greece he’s young guy I’m sure they’re going to sign old guys on the buck they’ve got plenty already but uh if they can somehow get PJ Tucker over there to help out he’ll be in the movie too hustle is a great one do you have

India this is a really cool idea I hope they continue to do it moving forward okay tweet of the night let’s do it yeah tweet of the night wow I was going to go I was going to go right to Rapid Fire but a quick tweet of the night here from

Shams last night uh this is uh making its way around everybody’s getting pumped uh he wrote exciting competition planned a Three-Point Shootout between Golden States Stephen Curry and WNBA New York Liberty star Sabrina yonescu at NBA All-Star Weekend in Indianapolis sources say two Three-Point Contest Champions Curry hinted at the possibility tonight

While miked up versus the kangs did you guys see the clip of Steph talking to Poky about uh hey do you know who holds the record for uh most made it felt pretty pretty planned if you ask to me staged yeah but anyway uh this is I I I

Pretty exciting if this actually happens uh between these two incredible three-point Shooters here this is awesome Sabrina yonescu was awesome at her three-point shoot she had 20 consecutive threes in July if we remember that was for the WNBA three-point shet up she had 30 7 of 40

Points that’s pretty damn good Jesus uh Steph has never done that in his three-point history and he tweeted immediately when yonescu did it ridiculous and she tweeted immediately back shootout and here it is we talked about it on our show Sabrina not you asku Sabrina Merchant came on our show

She writes for the athletic women’s basketball she came on and basically said this would be phenomenal for the WNBA yeah this is cool if if if you can have somebody join the NBA Allstar festivity now the question is has everybody started ridiculing when we talked about it on the show how Deep’s

The three-point line right the women’s line is what about the basketball which basketball are they going to use maybe it’s a little different on opposing sides of the floor as in he shoots on one side she shoots on one she has her standard ball SL line I don’t know I

Don’t know what but this is this is just awesome it’s cool yeah I can’t wait it’ll be really fun to watch uh I flash back to that one All-Star game when they pulled Steph Curry out uh on Saturday night and they’re like we’re going to have you shoot three pointers from half

Court you just you’ll make the first one no big deal and then he just took like oh yeah 12 of them like for the first time Steph Curry couldn’t make a half point shot uh so I’m taking Sabrina okay yeah I also I mean we don’t really know

Like we’re we’re assuming this is going to be like your traditional Three-Point Shootout right like the racks the five racks whatever uh we don’t know that though this could be something else that the league comes up with in terms of like obviously it’s a Three-Point Contest between them but maybe there’s

Different locations deeper locations like who knows but the idea alone is really fun and you know she’s tweeting last night during the game after this segman is leaked and chams is tweeting it like yeah let’s let’s do it let’s get it so I mean I assume this is happening

Like 99% sure this is going to go down in Indianapolis yeah I thought uh psky kind of gave it away I don’t know if he was involved in the bit cuz he’s like yeah I talked to my agent said you’re doing something right I thought that was funny sh agent

Yeah they didn’t like pre-plan out their improv scene but um I love that the NBA does this they’re like every once in a while they’re like we’re just going to throw something weird into Allstar Saturday night we had a Kevin Hart Draymond Green Three-Point Contest we had Charles Barkley race dick bavetta

Who cares they’re like we got some time to kill let’s do something crazy that’s how they should do it uh so all right we’ll see uh this is uh in a few weeks from now so that’s exciting okay we got to wrap up this drop uh with a little

Rapid fire fun I got the questions you guys got the answers on uh on Wednesday night Mike Breen and Doris Burke paid tribute to Doc Rivers who left ESPN for the Milwaukee Bucks uh vacant head coaching job Breen quipped on air we thank him for all his many weeks of

Service they were roasting talk on this setup to the game Breen was on fire it was killing me very funny so my question off of this is um what’s the shortest stint at a job you’ve ever had had fun going through this in my in my brain yesterday shortest stint was I

Was working a secondary camera for a show called Diva on a dime I just had I just had I just had one hit I just had one day I thought I was going to be on camera forever um but yeah the the host goes up to somebody’s

House person opens it and the host says I’m going to make your your wardrobe for like five bucks or whatever she says something really cheap it’s a little bit more than that but it’s not a dime it’s not $5 pin stripes yeah uh yeah and I was working the secondary camera not the

Primary camera supposed to go from you know some depth of field stuff from a from a from a tree to the front door I sucked at it uh so I just had one one day you were just there one day yeah I thought I was working there forever Diva

Ought to died all right yeah okay good answer good time TK what do you got I worked at abomi and Fitch for less than a month probably like three shifts uh but me and my roommate in college Josh Franks we used to go in and spend a lot

Of money on on cargo shorts and cargo pants like hey you guys want to work here we’re like yeah you got a discount I need some more cargo shorts so after I got my camos see you see you later fitches all right you you did three shifts I think I probably worked there

Six hours wow somehow they made money off me there yeah yeah I don’t know why they never asked me to take my shirt off and be one of those guys in the front stand outside yeah I don’t know why how is the smell in there get a headache from

Overpowering I can smell it now uh JD shortest stint at a job you ever had uh about 20 minutes I was uh I it was telemarketing for the globe in mail so a selling subscriptions I had one call sold immediately like I actually sold a subscription it was like they had a

Script and you know how I am with scripts and I was just like stumbling and bumbling over a script and I’m like basically uh do you want to get a subscription of the glob mail the guy’s like yeah I do actually and I was like

What wait what and then so I sold him a a subscription and I was like I can’t I can’t do that I took off the headset I’m like I can’t wow one one for one they’re like I you’re B bat in a thousand here man like I can’t I can’t do it [ __ ]

Don Draper man yeah wow The One That Got Away they’re still talking about him that guy they must be so mad to see you doing live ad reads now right stay on with you for 20 minutes all right great answer glad we asked that one all right sticking with Milwaukee the Bucks gave

Away a free Dame time watch to the first 10,000 fans uh at the arena on Wednesday the watch features buckard Damen Lillard giving his signature Dame time expression tapping a watch on his wrist it’s a real time within a Time situation when you start to think about it do your

Head in but I want to know what other creative giveaways would you like to see from an NBA team this season Tess um this is totally selfish and it ain’t all that creative but I think fans of championship teams should get a ring they I enjoyed wearing the Raptors Wing

If you’re with us on YouTube I got to wear a fake Raptor one um it was fun to wear it’s just so fun size of that thing it’s too big it’s ridiculous it’s too big but you know I was there I was there that country for so long paying for

Seats to a bad team I would love love love to get a fake R and it’s one of those rings that like you wear once or twice like we each got the Atlanta Braves one I do believe oh so I pulled it up when thinking about it uh it is a

Monster it’s too big uh it’s I can’t I can’t hold it up as I as I pull it out here right now all right but it’s fun okay what about you TK Alex Caruso is a fan favorite of the Chicago blls known for his headband and his headband

Celebration so they should do an Alex Caruso headband but they also should have an attached bald cap so when you put it on it’s like you see the headband and the top of your hair disappears and it also looks bald wow okay okay interesting can I can I wear it just as

A headband and tuck in the bald part like underneath the headband so I could have the option you know what I mean to go B maybe it’s reversible yeah I don’t know I don’t know how cuz I’m thinking of like one single piece of fabric that

Goes from headband to Bald yeah so I don’t know if you’d be able to tuck it in you would have to look like you have a ball on top of your head and it would look very funny for people with long hair cuz it’ be like flowing out of the

Bottom of it and then bald on top yeah yeah okay okay that’s a great idea I can’t believe they haven’t done this sounds like you can make that pretty cheap you know dibs yeah all right yeah make it a different design on the other side or something I mean it could be

Endless keep going uh JD other creative giveaways you’d like to see this year the Utah Jazz they’re their uh slogan I guess is take note little notepads you know just send the just as you’re walking in keep scoring the game why why were you so sheepish when saying I know it’s

So stupid it’s just dumb I don’t love this I don’t love you started I’m like oh he’s going to say jizz he’s going to say jizz here we go he’s going to say Utah and then you went notepad like notepad you know like good bring bring

The notepad back yeah Nora just bought a notepad the other day for us yeah you know like I started like we don’t have any paper in this house and we didn’t have any pens either you ever get into that situation no no no not around here

Addicted to pens oh really oh we just had none addicted to pens it’s like not that you needed a lot but every once in a while you want to jot something down you don’t want to do it on your phone no it’s awesome little mole skin oh okay we let’s go overboard easy

Bump all right final one uh DeAndre Aton is making headlines again sort of for all the wrong reasons this time the Blazer Center he uh got people talking when he said I got nothing to prove in this league I’m a max player and I’ll continue to be a max player in case

You’re wondering uh eighton is averaging 12.7 points per game right now okay so the question off of this what’s a skill you’re overly confident about uh being a handyman I just love doing things around the house even though I’m not all that good at it just breaking

Things smashing through walls I got it Dan yeah I was worried today that I was about to smash a glass but uh that wasn’t being handy that was just almost dropping a glass but the last few days I’ve been been killing it sprayed some grease on the inside of my garage door

Oh good let’s let’s let’s keep it moving let’s keep these wheels moving I was under the sink um cuz I had to change you know the hose wasn’t going back into its spot in the F like the little weight um I was up on the roof there for a

Little bit pulling some pine straw for no really real reason careful no I was actually on a ladder on the roof I wasn’t really going on anyways I’m not all that good but I just like doing it okay you’re overly confident I’m an old I’m that’s old that’s old it’s the old

Man stuff right there oh yeah yeah TK can I borrow your garage door grease spray please damn right got a little creaky got a little creaky when I bought it I was like I’m not going to even use this but it’s good grease is good grease is good I need

Some uh as for me a skill I’m overly confident about skateboarding oh oh I don’t know how to but I think if I had three weeks I could learn how to skateboard okay I’ve got Fair balance we talking like trick skating like uh up on the curve just uh physically skating

Like just get on a Belt Line and just sort of tooo scary for me on too many people and stuff too many dogs bikes dogs I can see you on a longboard just I think that would be the way to learn and then the board gets progressively shorter until I’m on a

Legit skateboard um but it’s a hard one to learn the older you get cuz I think there’s a lot of falling in skateboarding um can yeah but I think I could learn it it’s like like we would take bets on if you like serious like

Okay I’m going to for 3 weeks try and learn how to skateboard like we’d have bets going like think he breaks a bone think he breaks a wrist you knowy screw up a knee yeah you could but you’ve skateboarded before no you’ve never done it uh-uh you’ll be doing it in an hour

It’s not that hard like wasting my life then it’s all your it’s all our definition of what actually skateboarding is talking about like I know standing on a board and pushing pushing yourself forward I believe you can do that and turning W within an hour TR you play Bas you play basketball last

Night you play basketball this morning I think you can get on a skateboard and stand while you’re moving down the road he’s overly confident about you skateboard no I got to I did have a Ninja Turtle skateboard Once Upon a Time you know when they were on top of the

World and my version of skating I called it thrashing okay and all I would do was step as hard as I can on the thing go call crazy beat up I’m good at that Caba thrashy all right JD take us home what’s a skill you’re overly confident about

Yeah go-kart racing oh good one all right just being in a go-kart like you know I’m a 200lb guy in a go-kart I have to pass people I have to win if it’s a red last time I was go-karting I I won it was all adults was at like a kid’s

Birthday party but we had an adult side electric carts super fun but it’s I have no skill it’s just my body weight propels me faster I think and also uh I have no regard for safety so I will I will I rammed Rachel into she was

Racing I rammed her into like Cut Her Off she’s crashed and I’m just like go I’m very very Reckless no regard for safety so but I think I’m a great racer but I’m not I you’re like a you’re like you’re like Donkey Kong or Bowser exactly Warrior really is my

Inspiration I’m going to win that should be a question that they ask you before you step into a go-kart who’s your inspiration which which Mario current character Rachel was a real peach out there she spun up y I guess I’m a toad or something like that probably yeah yeah you would be a

Toad I think I I haven’t been like uh cart racing in so long it is fun but man when you talk about it I want to get out there so fun they probably got a cool one in Indianapolis yeah let us know you just go R around

  1. Having watched the starters in the past and now finding this podcast, I like this one a lot better! Keep up the great work

  2. What makes the West so tough is honestly, LeBron and Curry shouldn’t be there but got in/will get in because of legacy. That’s why there will be so many snubs.

  3. my 12am routine!! had to wake up everyday and today almost missed it coz my son snoozed the alarm, but nope can't miss this drop, shout from the stream team all the way from the Philipines since the The Starters…

  4. You guys are really pissing me off. Why do you actually think this has anything to do with knick fans voting? Do you really not understand how this works or are you being obtuse…i really expected better from you

  5. The fact that everyone finds the Sabonis selection controversial is just baffling. The guy has 12 triple doubles, putting up crazy stats, and is on a Kings team with a pretty solid record. All the arguments they gave for others, they just dismiss for Sabonis. Zero consistency

  6. For basketball movies 2 excellent flicks in 2023, Slam Dunk The Movie (from the great 90s anime series), and Rebound (South Korea). Also love the classics Coach Carter and White Men Can't Jump. Top Tier 🏀 🎥

  7. Actually you're better at go karts than you think you are because you're heavy and your body weight is actually slowing you down. That's why they try to keep the cars as light as they can in professional racing and I sometimes put the drivers on diets. You're good at go karting.

  8. with Kat numbers being 22pts 9rebs 3ast shooting over 50% and 44% from 3 with the best record in the west, Hes gotta be in over AD Lauri PG an Fox. Lakers,Kings,Clippers Suns shouldnt get 2 all stars over timberwolves they literally been the best team in the west for like 3 months

  9. As a pacers fan I love the pinstripes on the jersey and these r faint didn’t take attention away from the rest of the jersey

  10. The only part of the curry Sabrina shootout that will suck is the online discourse lol. I'm all here for it though

  11. Points=Brunson
    Assists=dame
    Rebounds=dame
    True shooting%=dame
    Team wins= dame
    Head to head=dame 3-1
    Steals=dame
    Blocks=Brunson
    Clutch points=dame
    Game winners=dame

    I’m fine if somebody thinks Brunson should of made it but to act like it’s some huge snub is crazy

  12. I’m writing 13hrs after this was posted. I’m assuming TKs sitting in an Atl hospital waiting on X-rays to confirm a broken wrist. I hope not, but overconfidence + confident peers + skateboard – experience on a skateboard = broken wrist.

  13. Wait wait wait…did Skeets start off with a nonchalant Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist reference?!?! Or is that a reference in its own right that I only know of because of that movie? 😅 ("Follow the white rabbit")

  14. Markkanen can be cool player to watch, have you forgot all the poster dunks he has had? He can score in all levels too. He also tried to windmill in last years All Star game but sadly it didn't stay in 😄

    Also he clearly would have been ready to play more competitive last year but didn't want to upset the guys who have been All Stars many time being first timer in All Star game 😃

    …yeah, yeah, I know I'm homer 😉😄

  15. Anthony Davis is the best player on his team, and he is borderline??? Ofc Media will just praise lebron not AD who is avg better numbers in every statistical category besides assist while being the best defender.

  16. Towns and Gobet should go over over Markinen and Sabonis! D’Aaron Fox is an all star as well. Even before his teammate Sabonis. You have to factor in clutch as well.
