    People like to hate on Curry for whatever reason... I don't care about that. Curry is the biggest weapon in the game, and most know it, and many hate him for that.
    No hate on Curry, he's arguably a top 5 player. He's the same as James Harden

    Durant

    Lebron
    Kawhi

    Curry
    Harden

    Top 5 in tiers

    I wouldn't be surprised if it's not being televised because LeBron said he didn't want to do that. He calls the shots.

    Lebron is a has-been... no clout. I guarantee he will not win another ring nor MVP. His accomplishments are all in the rear-view mirror at this point

    Terrible post.

    You're on crack if you think Curry is better than Durant. If teams had to pick between Curry and Durant, I guarantee you all of them would pick Durant.

    Curry, for all of his unique talents and abilities is still only 6'3.

    As great as Harden and derozan are in the regular season beating up average joes, I have to believe they won't be very effective in an all star game

    No one wants to see a player dribble the air out of the ball while the rest of the team stands around and then eventually look to the refs for free throws

    Was pretty obvious in the NBA finals who was the best player on the Warriors. Closing time = KD time. Plus, Curry was average for 2 previous NBA finals. Durant would never be average in an NBA finals series in the prime of his career. Hurt or not hurt. Doesn't matter. Klay Thompson melted down in 3 straight NBA finals. Tell me what star player has melted down in 3 straight NBA finals. Not one. It's ridiculous that he's in the all star game every year, but that's how it goes when your team wins.

    I bet this is what happened. Lebron and Curry probably both didn't want it televised (maybe along with the players) as it could be a big slight to get picked last. I think Lebron trolled Curry by taking Durant, then trolled Boston by taking Irving. Then he trolled writers that have been saying he should team up with Cousins.

    I'm very excited to see these lineups play. Very good idea by the NBA that will draw a lot of interest. All that's missing is to put up a few million on the line to the winner, so that the players would be a bit more interested. Or have the losers have to do something live on tv, like wash the winners jersey's or some other shit.

    At Florida, our Orange n Blue spring game had the winner eating steak and lobster while the loser had beans and rice. Not that it made us play any better but we damn sure laughed our ass off watching half the team eat beans. Oh wait, I think I ate beans a couple times.

    He's got the 3 best players from last year's finals. Big lineup -he'll play the 2. The line will be about -5 I expect...

    Curry picked a bunch of guards like he said he would. Dude must have never grown up picking on the playground. His team looks very undermanned but that's why they play the game.
