Around the League: Week 16 The 2015 All-Star Game

Post by carey »

I don't recall a year with this many All-Star replacements.

Who is out? Kobe, Griffin, Davis, and Wade so far?
Go Suns!

otoh, last season, tony parker returned from an injury just to play in the all star game, denying dragic a well deserved spot (over anthony davis and his lottery team and damian lillard and his 42% FG shooting). after the all star game, parker was immediately relegated to the injury list again. #popovichmindgames

Anybody noticed Parker's lovely net +/- this season?

Not just a fashion show, but a fashion show competition that will crown a runway-walking champion. WTF indeed. What's next, "NBA Idol"? "Dancing with the All-Stars"?

Anyone hear Magic Johnson on First take? Dude just needs to STFU about Jim Buss. He was saying the same shit about D'Antoni about how it was ALL his fault now he's onto Buss.

Van Pelt and Russilo were ripping him on there radio show. Pretty Obvious Magic is but heart the Lakers didn't give him a FO Job.
“Kobe had said (after the play) I wasn’t hugged enough as a child,” Bell recalled. “My mom kind of found him after the instance and we had beat them and offered him a hug in the bowels of the Phoenix arena. She really feels a part of that story.”

It just isn't a good idea for him to talk about the Lakers org. Whether he's right or wrong, it just looks bad for him and for the team. Nobody wins.

the fact that george karl has just been hired by the kings means there is no chance of them trading cousins for bledsoe.

The fact that Cousins is maybe the top C in the league and Bledsoe is an overpaid above-average PG has always meant there's no chance of that happening.

The only way Cousins leaves is if he publicly announces that he is upset with the organization and wants out. Which I guess could happen but is unlikely.

Hornacek was well-regarded, Andrew Lange was a league leader in blocks-per-minute, and Tim Perry was a top draft choice and a college hero at nearby Temple (in Philly). So "Suns pieces" is a bit misleading.
Well, so much for hopes and dreams ...

Hornacek wasn't just well-regarded, he was an All-Star.
