Surprised the coaches snubbed Anthony Davis especially with the game being in NO
-
This looks unorganized as ?
-
-
Like they picked names out of a hat and placed them on teams smh
-
Will watch the dunk contest hoping somebody puts on an epic performance, and the 3 point contest but not that joke of an all star game
-
The trade deadline is more entertaining than the all star weekend, even if a lot of moves don't end up being made there's always a lot of build up and chatter and once in a while u get shocker

Terrance Ross is a automatic bid because he's the defending champ. I heard Oladipo really wants to do it. Those two alone would make it interesting.

Ross practicing for the dunk comp

i wonder if these hos train like prized fighters to get in shape for all star weekend

If “sources” are correct, the Celtics are interested in moving Gerald Wallace, Jeff Green and Avery Bradley at the deadline. They are officially in rebuilding mode and want to collect draft picks. I can’t imagine any of this is going to make Rondo especially happy.

You think Rondo cares about a rumor? He's been on the trade block since 09, on the low he's probably still on the block, doesn't mean any of them are going to get moved or Ainge is trying to get rid of them (besides Wallace), if it's true it means Ainge will listen to offers, and if something pops up at the deadline that he can't walk away from he'll make that deal, possibly he doesn't want to pay Avery this offseason and has a different direction in mind so instead of letting him walk he's gonna try to get assets for him, but it's all speculation right now I'm just going to wait to see how things play out, my dream scenario in 07 was to draft Oden and have a front court with him and Al Jefferson, but we ended up with Ray and KG that ? didn't even seem possible back then, only time will tell there's a lot of different scenarios that could end up playing out -

Those aren't my words. I just copy and pasted but rondo ain't sticking around unless they make a move for a proven player like Monroe or Bosh. I think it's 50/50 he gets moved before the deadline. Boston could just move him this summer but he's worth more now then he would be next year with 1 year left on his deal
-
Send a few first round picks to cleavland. How can the Cavs say no to this deal

Chad Ford of ESPN believes this trade deadline will be "EPIC" because of the teams trying to clear space and "tank" and the unusual amount of expiring contracts of good players.

Meh. I'll believe it when I see it. -
yea there are going to be a lot of sellers at the trade deadline but not many buyers
i think the rockets suns wizards and bobcats the only teams with flexibility to buy and maybe toronto but lowry might be on the block himself
lol @ the lakers asking if they can get their pick back if gasol gets traded over there -
Glad my ? Joe Johnson back in the ASG. I was surprised DeRozan made it but glad it's some new faces. Have they announced who's taking Kobe and CP-3 place?

Joe Johnson has to have illuminati blood lines. That ? managed to get 2 max contacts and always finds his way on a playoff roster/all star team wtf? Anthony Davis is most likely replacing Kobe and I think CP3 should be back before the ASG if not my guess is Dragic -
Last year was the last good year for a team to dump a player on a desperate team and get something out of it.
Now, teams are catching on to the damage that this new CBA and luxury tax can do to squads. So the "sticker" price that a player has does not include the tax penalty which could mean signing a player with a 7 million dollar salary could really mean he costs 12 million a year.
It's a reason why the last team to successfully do a "team up" was put together pre-lockout. -
