Guuuuyyyss !!


If my boy gets this All Star Weekend invite and does his thing I'm gonna be acting a fool lol

He just needs to work on that half court shot.

I heard him say the other day on NBA TV that his favorite shot is the left corner three so that tracks.

And one other thing, BG. You can't have Cam to yourself! You gotta share him.

Nah ofc not man
Tbh, even to start the season when he had some cold spells there were many coming to his defence and I really didn't have to comment anymore
So it's all good

I'm just messing with you. I've been a big fan since the beginning. You're right though. When everybody was saying he's struggling and reverting and expendable, I always came to his defense and just said to give him time and he'd figure it out. And here we are.

Regarding Book and Paul on the all-star team. There's no question they'll be reserves, right? And Monty will be coach. I have two competing thoughts about this. One is that Monty plays his guys the majority of the time and in "big" moments. The other is that he hardly plays them and he runs Curry and Wiggins into the ground.

They’re all in for sure…1 more win guarantees it for Monty and the staff. Nothing confirmed for the reserves but it would be a major major surprise if Paul and Book are not there.

As for coaching, Monty will coach the LeBron team, no guarantee who else will be on it though. He might be coaching against Book and CP3

Ugh. Forgot about that wrinkle.

I really hope CP3 and Monty are on different teams.

Maybe we get JaVale back? Crowder was getting shots up in practice today too. Didn't look like he was catching passes in previous videos, but he is in today's.

Why?

Murray White and Poeltl all out tomorrow.

That's crazy if we get Ayton, McGee, and Crowder all back at the same time, since that already happened with their return from Covid.

It would be fun to see Monty coaching against CP3 and CP3 trying to beat Monty. The game is already meaningless, so having fun games-within-the-game are the only good part of the all-star game.

Gotcha. Yeah, I was just curious of your reasoning.

Our next opponent after that, the Nets, were without Harden tonight.

The Spurs guys hurt or are teams just realizing they can’t beat us and just rest their guys?

Pop seems to be doing this against us alot

Methinks Pop would like to see his protege coach the all star game as well.

Didn’t we lose that game? Almost like we got all our troops back and got overconfident.

I don't think he needs to sit players to lose to us. It's happening one way or the other.

Do you guys think this team could beat the best Nash year Suns? I'd love to watch that. CP3 vs Nash. Amare vs Ayton. Bridges on Matrix. Booker would have some big games. He'd get into it with Raja inevitably.

I think so, yeah. It's a weird matchup for that team. Nash & Amare are not necessarily defensive stalwarts. The way Paul & Ayton defend I'd probably give this current squad the edge. The big plus for the 7SOL team is that they are a transition team and the '22 squad struggles defending in transition.

Strictly on advancements of the game they’d win…but if we try and extrapolate a bit it gets a little interesting. The current team would throw Bridges on Nash for sure. Nash would shoot a lot more, but the Nash teams had two major downfalls that make me think the current team would win.

1. Defense…you could stick Marion/Bell on CP3/Booker, but regardless you still gotta bring Amare in to defend the pick n roll and CP3 would get whatever he wants.

2. No secondary ball handler for the Nash team. Bridges would defend him and we’d probably trap every ball screen and force someone else to beat us. Honestly the 04-05 team might have the better shot with Joe Johnson.
