NBA discussion thread

Devean George had so sort of thing in his contract where he can block a trade. He used it, so Kidd is still in Jersey.... for now.

I don't think Kidd would've mattered. Dallas won't be winning anything this year.

Moon is a freak of nature. I read about his story in the 1st month of the season, pretty inspiring

About Kidd, I wonder if Cuban was having second thoughts about the trade and told George to block it, just yesterday or the other day Cuban said he wasn't going to trade for Kidd because it would cost him half his team.

Go Devean

i think kidd could have made a decent impact i must be honest... no-one expected him to do much at new jersey but he took them to the finals. yes, you can argue that was a few years ago now... but hes still producing at a high level.

pity george blocked it.

Kobe needs surgery on is pinky

Gary and the staff will find a way so Kobe can still play

The Lakers will be all right.

We will

Kobe is gonna wait till after the Olympics to get surgery.

Btw is everyone watching the All-Star Festivities? 😮‍💨

no but i wish i could. dont get any of it over here😐 rookie sophomore game looks like it could be good this year

Yay Dwight! I loved the show he put on. I was disappointed by Green in the finals. Now I wish Moon made it in the finals. Too bad Moon put tape on the ground. That cemented his doom in the contest.

Btw, Gay was really really disappointing. His dunk that he took from youtube was weak. The fact that he didn't choose a challenging dunk suggested to me that he didn't have the skills to compete in this contest.

thank god.... allstar gameis on british tv tonight... but not on a channel i have. luckily for me, my sister does so shes taping it for me to watch tomorrow. ahhh... i do like these occasions😄

I didnt think Gay had much of a chance as it was... Green and Dwight people knew were gonna put on a show from last year, and anyone who has seen Moon this year knows about his hops....Dwight did put on a show, set the pace right off the bat with his 1st dunk. I liked Greens idea about dunking with no shoes but he should've tried a 360, or at least a different dunk than the previosly round....Birthday cake was sweet though.

Kapono went nuts in the 3pt contest, I picked him to win it last year, I picked Nash to win it this year, that did not work out at all.

Goodbye Bibby, hello expiring contracts! 💃

Dwight's Superman dunk wasn't even a dunk but I would have given it a 10 anyway.

What is the worst somebody has shot in the 3pt contest? Nash had to be close.

I think it was a dunk, just not what people usually think of when they think of the word. http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=dunk%20shot

...it wasn't a dunk. He threw the ball in and his hands made no contact with the rim. He didn't "slam" it in, he threw it in...

But it was still nice.

I don't care, I'm watching the car races. 50th one too. 500 man!! Oooooooo go, Ooooooo smash Ooooooo
