So i'm pretty excited for the dunk contest this year. will need to dvr so i can watch griffin and FF through the other guys. also the skill challenge has actually become pretty fun to watch.

Finally, this year's all star rosters are just loaded. nba is finally deep in talent again, should be fun to watch.

hate hate hate hate hate

cue people still trying to say college is better than nba

2/18/2011 9:45:44 PM

So you're pretty excited for 25 percent of the dunk contest this year. Nice.

2/18/2011 10:30:50 PM

haha yea, well all star games in every sport are weak but nba game is probably 2nd only to mlb and the nba weekend is better.

2/18/2011 10:33:31 PM

Ok that bounce pass alley oop was definitely the coolest think I've seen all day

2/18/2011 10:59:28 PM

yea to the reverse too

griffin is nasty.

2/19/2011 12:55:41 PM

when's dunk contest? Griffin ftw?

2/19/2011 7:07:59 PM

glad that wnba shit is out of the way

2/19/2011 9:03:06 PM

2/19/2011 9:07:20 PM

2/19/2011 9:12:06 PM

Is blake griffin knocked himself out yet with head vs backboard?

I love Pauly Shore.

2/19/2011 9:17:36 PM

^^i think its my cable in general...it was fine in HD for the shooting thing, then it became shitty choppy picture on every channel

2/19/2011 9:19:27 PM

for whatever reason today, the DirecTV has done that "searching for signal" thing a couple times

bright and sunny as shit outside today too

2/19/2011 9:20:28 PM

i'm number 400 and something in the online chat queue so i'm assuming its not a problem limited to my place

on the bright side, i just got my final star to get the golden egg on Danger Above

I like Blake Griffin and all, but I hope he gets bested and lets just about everyone down.

2/19/2011 9:57:28 PM

lol Dick Johnson

2/19/2011 10:00:03 PM

i'd at least publicly go by richard

damn dude we dont need 8 fuckin concerts

2/19/2011 10:05:26 PM

who the hell are these fools

2/19/2011 10:06:14 PM

Dear China,
In the absence of Yao Ming this year, we present some crappy Asian synth-rap-R&B band. Please continue paying attention to us.

Sincerely,
NBA

2/19/2011 10:06:33 PM

they remind me of members of the Crazy 88s in Kill Bill vol 1

2/19/2011 10:06:45 PM

if they're goin for the international asian thing for all the asian viewers, they shouldve at least gotten Mountain Brothers

2/19/2011 10:07:32 PM

and wtf is this w/ dunk coaches

[Edited on February 19, 2011 at 10:09 PM. Reason : ]

2/19/2011 10:08:35 PM

oh shit McGee bringing out a taller 2nd goal

[Edited on February 19, 2011 at 10:27 PM. Reason : nice]

despite getting a 49, the hype of the building after Griffin's 1st dunk =



It's over

[Edited on February 19, 2011 at 10:31 PM. Reason : .]

2/19/2011 10:24:59 PM

that was probably the best first round of dunking EVER

2/19/2011 10:31:01 PM

be nice if someone could make a dunk on their first try again one day (other than ibaka)

2/19/2011 10:32:01 PM

is he gonna hold the kid while he goes to dunk? that'd be epic

2/19/2011 10:38:19 PM

pretty creative

2/19/2011 10:40:30 PM

kenny smith gets more camera time than the dunkers

2/19/2011 10:43:00 PM

Darrell "Dr. Dunkenstin" Griffith also dunked 2

damn McGee, this finals is gonna be good

2/19/2011 10:48:18 PM

^^so damn true

[Edited on February 19, 2011 at 10:48 PM. Reason : .]

2/19/2011 10:48:30 PM

Dr. J got the sloppy 2nd's 4th's of McGee's mom kissing all those dudes

2/19/2011 10:49:43 PM

i think griffin is about to die

2/19/2011 10:59:55 PM

shits about to get real

2/19/2011 10:59:56 PM

This is going to be ridiculous.

2/19/2011 11:00:32 PM

i agree w/ barkley ... he could have jumped over a rack of balls length-ways and it would have been more difficult than that

2/19/2011 11:02:51 PM

lol dwight howard on the pohne w/out taking his mic off


and i love that kenny kept saying they dont do props then they bring out 5x more than anyone else.

2/19/2011 11:31:20 PM

the @InsideHoops twitter feed had reported a rumor that BG would dunk over a car earlier today ... he should have borrowed a ferrari or something that is shorter at its peak so he could jump over the middle of the car and not the hood

2/19/2011 11:32:59 PM

griffin's win was shocking

shocking

2/19/2011 11:35:02 PM

I liked the part in the three point contest where Barkley estimated that he had 150 three point attempts in his career. Actual number: 2020, he had eight seasons with more than 150 attempts.

2/20/2011 8:13:59 AM

he is well known for not being completely invested in a conversation, but he isnt stupid, so i would guess that he meant per season. he got his percentage about right. he said 25 and his career % is 26.6.

2/20/2011 1:48:58 PM

the first hornets game i went to back in 94, barkley hit the game-winning 3-ptr

2/20/2011 1:51:59 PM

i havent felt so jaded from a slam dunk contest result since dwight howard put on a cape and tossed in a "dunk" cause he couldnt reach the rim. at least the contest was really good overall. one of the best i've seen in years.

2/20/2011 5:28:49 PM

jaded?

really?

2/20/2011 6:30:24 PM

well it was a joke...who gets worked up over all star events?

i do think the results did not represent the performance however.

2/20/2011 6:52:28 PM

"name your three favorite players neyo"

"i'd have to say lebron, big d-wade fan, the black mamba, and griffin"


*sigh*

2/20/2011 7:30:26 PM

this shit needs to pick up! 21-10 with 5 mins. left in the first quarter

2/20/2011 8:58:44 PM

a lot of defense being played, by the west at least

2/20/2011 8:59:16 PM

A whopping SIX teams are represented on the east team. Boston, miami, atlanta, chicago, new york, orlando
