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

He should've dunked in a toga or something. Eat a gyro, some Chobani...gimme something.

The thing that impressed me most about LaVine's dunks was that he nailed the first two on his first attempts. I think the difficulty of that alone is highly underrated, and it would have been nearly criminal if he somehow didn't win the contest after that.

I've always thought there should be a point penalty for misses. If it takes you three tries to put down a 50-point dunk, you get 48.

I hate how every dunk was either (a) bounce the ball to myself, or (b) have a teammate throw the ball to me. They immediately go for these weird gimmicky dunks.

i'm embarassed for zach lavine (altho that was a great dunk)

space jam... space jam..

The kid is 19 years old. He grew up on Space Jam. You're embarrassed?

[Superbone]

At one point, after the Oladipo/mom story, I thought he was going to bring his mom out and dunk on her. THAT would've been something.

You don't dunk on your mom. It's just not done. That's my excuse, anyway.

the over the top setup before the dunk was kinda embarassing especially if his first dunk was mediocre or a flop.

Wow, 71 3PA in the first half. About half of them from crazy range.

According to Frank Isola Amare has been bought out ending his 5 year tenure with NY.

The other production stuff kind of sucked tho. Giannis brought out the girls and the Greek flag...and then didn't do anything with them. He should've dunked in a toga or something. Eat a gyro, some Chobani...gimme something.

Uh, Shel, you're hired. All-Star 2016, a ShelC production.

If LeBron can f-bomb his mom, someone can dunk on their mom.

Delonte West agrees.

I bet SA picks up Amare. It just makes sense.

I don't know if Amar'e really can't sustain playing over a period of time or if the Knicks were just holding him out. When he played, he looked pretty good. If needs to sit out an extended period of time between playing 4-5-6 games, then what's the point. At that rate, he wouldn't make it through an extended playoff run.

If I'm Dallas I pass. Same with SA (he's not smart enough to play with them). I think Houston has too many guys in the frontcourt and he would just jumble it up even more. I think the clips make sense and Portland too. If he wants to stay east, go to Atlanta.

Hard to believe it was 10 years ago.
