Do you think All-Star Game Will be a Disappointment?

THEGREAT30 · 02-12-10, 07:14 AM

no real thoughts here?

The only thing exciting about the all star weekend is the Rook/Soph game.

Jak · 02-12-10, 07:39 AM

It would better if lebron didn't back out of the dunk comp and kobe wasn't sitting out, but as a whole the allstar weekends have been going down hill.

2daBank · 02-12-10, 07:45 AM

used to be into it but now it just annoys me that there arnt games to bet on

THEGREAT30 · 02-12-10, 07:47 AM

I think the main game is gonna be a trainwreck just don't see where the flash and excitement is gonna come from

2daBank · 02-12-10, 07:51 AM

agree kobe/bron was the only reason to watch now that isnt happening who cares

THEGREAT30 · 02-12-10, 08:10 AM

I wonder will there will be a prop for MVP? Lebron will most definitely win it, only other person I would even thinking about putting money on is Durant

Speaking of props, everyone should be playing props during the regular season...........rather easy dough.

gwiz · 02-12-10, 08:19 AM

I got durant +450

and james +120

why? Isn't Gasol gonna be there? I really do think its gonna be shitty but it will be watched just because of the record attendance and all

benjy · 02-12-10, 09:52 AM

Hard to be disappointed when my expectations are so low.

If there's a big enough line Bosh, being a home town boy, might be worth a flyer for MVP.

yeah i will watch the ceremonies part but cant sit thru a whole game of pickup ball. i will watch the contests on saturday those are always good

HoulihansTX · 02-12-10, 09:56 AM

I expect nothing, but Rucker style ball play.

I will be on the OVER for a regular sized bet, and will see you at the window.

THEGREAT30 · 02-12-10, 09:58 AM

Somebody has to have high expectations the biggest basketball crowd ever in the U.S. is expected

Crazy how people expect to be able to see a basketball game in nosebleed seats made for a football game.

The players will look like Ants, unless you look at the biiiggg screen the whole time.

I think they will have the bigscreen thing going, but I'm sorry I can't see how that is more comfortable than watching in your own home. I guess some people just love to say they were there

THEGREAT30 · 02-14-10, 01:05 AM

Disappointment has begun

newjerseydevils · 02-14-10, 01:08 AM

no kobe...no thanks not watching it

Aurelius · 02-14-10, 01:20 AM

theres a chance it wont be all bad, all stars might lift and put on a show for the fans to make up for the lack of effort in the dunk comp.

can only hope

+1. After that drunk contest...

TonyP · 02-14-10, 02:52 AM

+1 for me to

Naz18 · 02-14-10, 03:24 AM

Expectations are always low for a all star game so not really.

warriorfan707 · 02-14-10, 03:50 AM

The NBA All Star game always is

HammersForTeeth · 02-14-10, 06:15 AM

I personally don't think it could get any worse than the dunk contest... That was pathetic, sad, and disappointing. Good thing TNT has Charles.

Seriously.
They will just be watching that massive screen the whole game.

20Four7 · 02-14-10, 07:36 AM

All star games don't interest me. No one is out there trying to do anything other than not get hurt.

PRC · 02-14-10, 07:17 PM

Why would anyone bet this?

whatsgood5 · 02-14-10, 08:09 PM

Hopefully not, nut judging by how the dunk competition and everything else was, it'll prolly be pretty shitty.

Makes the game more interesting. I'd have to hope no one bets this for anything more than a couple of bucks.

THEGREAT30 · 02-15-10, 12:32 AM

It was okay, not bad, not great hope the 100,000+ enjoyed it in attendance and the millions at home, good day
