Edwards over IQ is a head scratcher. I think it's just a marketing thing. RJ fills the niche of being a foreign player based in NY. They may have felt that IQ wasn't necessary if they already had RJ.


I forgot that they aren't even having a game. Makes this list even more suspect.

These things lack meaning. RJ was the best player last time and the media roasted him and he wasn’t even on the 2nd all rookie roster. It’s a snub based on nothing.

Last round underwhelming, but Obi's first dunk was one of the nicer ones I've seen in these (hard to do something unique in this contest)!

I'm torn. I want to see the top guys going at it in these fun events, get their bragging rights. At the same time, these things are tailor made for guys like Obi who just glow excitement and love of the game.

This was still better than watching Nate miss 15 dunk attempts on a row.

All star beak is often a time when trades are done. Been quiet........Does it stay that way?
Griff to Nets.....Obviously a back up role player there for when injuries happen. Kind of a Larry Johnson type player no longer playing above the rim.
Before we “Beat the nets in the playoffs”, lets get there first! Then we can worry about not being embarrassed by them. After that an upset would be totally fun!!!!
IM good with our team as it is. Not to say “Content”, but IM not gong to pretend I’m in the know. Rose was a big addition. As for who’s is available at what cost matters most.
Our Detroit pick is valuable and can be used in many ways.
This is the kind of deep draft that adds value to multiple picks. There is no “It” player. No Zion or Lebron type concerns is clear no brained. We have a lot of fodder to move up if we have a strong conviction on a player. At the same time with three picks likely in the top 31 picks we can take some risks. Sounds bad but one need just hit it big on one of the three to succeed! 2 of three would be amazing. Won’t know for years of course.
Yes, even successful businesses as well as team don’t plan for “Failure” but factor it in. For example if IQ is a multi year all star one day and Obi a bust, does it really matter? Yes, that one did succeed!!!!!! Three picks increases your odds. Push it into the middle for one pick? Oh boy, better nail it!!! don’t want to “Fultz” it!

The trade deadline I believe is March 25th. I do expect it to heat up

Be honest, who thinks the Knicks and Lakers players got vaccinated secretly before the season? Just seems weird none have tested positive for covid, except possibly Rose who joined the team late...
