OPEN THREAD: NBA All-Star Saturday 2009

Over here in Dubs land we know that Kevin Durant is the real deal because he torches the Warriors every time they square off. But last night's 46 point outing on All-Star Friday was his coming out party. KD will be on the real All-Star squad next season and probably for the next decade. I'd trade anyone and everyone on the Warriors for him- including the entire collection of Warriors' young core of Monta Ellis + Andris Biedrins + Anthony Randolph + Brandan Wright.
Isn't it funny how Durant seems to have taken it to the next level immediately after the Thunder fired PJ Carlesimo? Even Dwight Howard can coach this future hall of famer better than PJ!
I give it about 6 months before the fans, media, and KD's camp realize that it's a complete travesty that one of the league's brightest stars along with an impressive young cast of Jeff Green and Russell Westbrook are stuck in Oklahoma City of all places. How robber Clay Bennett lucked into this situation is beyond me.
Hopefully Durant can escape before 2012. Cap-space for NY, LA, Chicago in 2012 would be a good thing- maybe for the Bay Area as well if Chris Cohan sells the team to an owner who actually has a clue.
Here's what's on tap tonight:
- NBDL All-Star Game (4pm on NBATV)- This is like Xmas for our friends over at Ridiculous Upside.
- Shooting Stars (everything from here starts at 5pm on TNT- Available on TNT OT online)
- Skills Challenge
- Three-Point Shootout
- Slam Dunk Competition
Jump with me for a preview of my Valentine's Day date with All-Star Saturday.
This one's a fun playground game to actually play during basketball practice or just messing around with some of your buddies on the blacktop or hardwood. It's actually not that bad to watch either.
Here's how it works:
Shot 1: 10-foot bank shot from right-side angle (Player A)
Shot 2: 15-foot shot from left side-angle (Player B)
Shot 3: NBA 3-point shot from top of the arc/straight on (Player C)
Shot 4: 18-foot shot from right-side baseline (Player A)
Shot 5: NBA 3-Pt. shot from left side angle (Player B)
Shot 6: Shot from just inside half-court/straight on (Player C, Player A, Player B, repeat)Each team is given two minutes to complete the course. The clock will be started at 0:00 and count up, and stopped by the referee's whistle when the team makes Shot 6. If a team doesn't complete all six shots as of the 2:00 mark, the horn will sound and their score will be based upon the total number of shots completed.
Here's the participants:
- Team San Antonio: Tim Duncan, David Robinson and Becky Hammon
- Team Detroit: Arron Afflalo, Bill Laimbeer and Katie Smith
- Team Los Angeles: Derek Fisher, Michael Cooper and Lisa Leslie
- Team Phoenix: Leandro Barbosa, Dan Majerle and Tangela Smith
All I know is I'm glad there's no Team Golden State participating. Can you imagine if Biedrins was on the squad? Watching him shoot any of those jumpshots would be pretty hilarious.
Prediction: Home team Phoenix for a bright win.
This one's another great playground or practice drill. I have no idea where you're going to find all the necessary props, but if anyone knows please kindly let everyone know in the comments.
The Rules
The object of the PlayStation Skills Challenge is to complete an obstacle course -- that features dribbling, passing and shooting stations -- in the least amount of time. In doing so, all players must observe basic NBA ball-handling rules.
On a referee's whistle, the players start with a layup and then slalom through three obstacles (first going left, then right, then left) which emphasize the cross-over dribble before reaching the chest pass station. The players have five chances to complete the pass before moving on to the bounce pass station. Again, participants have five chances to complete the pass before moving to the top of the key.
There, they must make a shot from 20 feet in five attempts. After the jumper station, the participants move to the outlet pass station and have five chances to complete that pass. After that station, the players must go through the speed dribble course (left-right-left) and then finish the course when the ball goes through the hoop. Any type of shot may be taken to finish the course.
The fastest two times advance to the finals where the fastest time will determine the winner.
Also, players could be subject to disqualification (at the final discretion and judgment of the referee) for failure to attempt all of the challenges as they are designed and intended to be completed.
They Got Skillz:
- Devin Harris- If only flopping were part of the challenge, he'd take it easy.
- Tony Parker- Over/under on camera cuts to Eva Longoria = 5.
- Derrick Rose- Good thing defense isn't part of this event.
- Mo Williams- Should be interesting to see what kind of "skills" Mo has when he's not playing alongside a triple-teamed LeBron James.

Ellis for Durant
straight-up? interesting, if it were possible (and it’s not)
but you might be stretching it a wee bit here -
I’d trade anyone and everyone on the Warriors for him- including the entire collection of Warriors’ young core of Monta Ellis + Andris Biedrins + Anthony Randolph + Brandan Wright.
All Star Prediction: GSW will get 1 (one) mention during the game – for not being rep’d

I’d be shocked if Ellis + Biedrins + Randolph + Wright could even get you Durant. Go ask the Thunder fans (all 2 of them) if they’d do that. I bet you none of them would do it.
We’re talking about a guy who could be the next Kobe or TMac (pre-Houston). There’s even a possibility he could be the next Larry Bird if he picks up his rebounding to what most expected from him coming out of college. Not only did Bird have a killer J, but he was an incredible rebounder. As a basketball fan, I’m hoping Durant gets there. Ellis and Biedrins might squeeze in for an All-Star appearance or two. Durant could be a bonafide Hall of Famer and at worst I’d say he makes 8-10 All-Star appearances.
The Warriors don’t deserve to be in anything remotely associated with the All-Star festivities this year. I’m a basketball fan first and there’s nothing All-Star worthy or respectable about this team this year. I would’ve loved to see Anthony Morrow or Kelenna Azubuike make it to the 3pt contest, but honestly the Warriors shouldn’t have anyone in the All-Star weekend. Maybe next year (x15) they’ll deserve it, but not this year.

Calling Zorgon
Actually let’s ask the man himself if he’d trade Monta Ellis + Andris Biedrins + Anthony Randolph + Brandan Wright for Kevin Durant. 4 for 1. Maybe I’m wrong?
by Atma Brother ONE on Feb 14, 2009 4:18 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Well
Actually, I’m probably the wrong guy to ask, since I’m a Warriors fan and I probably overvalue those guys way too much.
Honestly, the fans in Oklahoma City are very excited about the Trifecta of Kevin Durant, Jeff Green, and Russell Westbrook. Kevin Durant has done simply amazing playing out of position all year (at SG and at PF). Russell Westbrook might as well be Chris Paul, because after watching Earl Watson dribble it around, he looks amazing. The most likely guy to go of the 3 would be Jeff Green, but the Thunder would only trade him in a deal for a really good player, like Amare Stoudamire.
But, assuming that trade were even possible, it’d never get done. The Thunder have a LOGJAM of big men right now, and if that trade went down our front court would be something like:
C: Biedrins/Krstic/Swift/Sene
PF: Collison/Wright/Randolph/Wilcox/Joe Smith
So, we’d have to find some way to get rid of that extra stuff on our roster, coupled with the fact that we’d have a point guard battle between Westbrook and Ellis.
So, while it might work talent-wise, position-wise it’s completely wrong. Not to mention, everyone I talk to around here doesn’t think too much of the Warriors. Most fans don’t even know who Biedrins or Ellis are. “The only guy I recognize is Jackson.” is what one fan told me. So, PR-wise, it would be another huge disaster.
So if I was sitting in that GM spot, I’m sure I could get a better offer than that which would fill our needs a bit better. So no, I wouldn’t accept it.

Larry Bird
Would not have his team as crappy as the Thunder are, you can make excuses all you want why their terrible but to compare Durant to Larry Bird is beyond ridiculous, yes Durant is a great scorer but he does not make the players around him all that much better, and thats a fact right now, so to say hes going to be one of the greatest of all-time is absurd. And unless he starts to make his teammates much much better then he is doing right now, his teams will be in the bottom 5 in the league making it very hard for him to come close to 10 all star games. I mean its ok to be on a players jock but damn, this is hilarious.
by pbra17 on Feb 14, 2009 7:16 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
to compare Durant to Larry Bird is beyond ridiculous
You’re absolutely right. Durant entered the league at the age of 19. Bird entered the league at 23. Now in his second season at the age of 20 Durant is putting up 25.5 ppg (through All-Star break). Bird didn’t even crack 24 ppg till his 5th year in the league when he was 27.
Scoring wise Durant projects to be far beyond Bird for his career. My point was about the rebounding combined with shooting. I think Durant can get to Bird’s 10rpg. KD’s at 6.7 rpg right now. Bird averaged 10.4 rpg as a 23 year old rook, so I might be projecting too far but we’ll see.
Kevin Durant [Basketball Reference]
Larry Bird [Basketball Reference]
but he does not make the players around him all that much better, and thats a fact right now
Right just like KG didn’t make those players around him that much better when he was with the TWolves? Or how Kobe magically made the Lakers better once they got Pau Gasol? It’s like Nellie coaching the 2008-2009 Warriors. Stars can’t win with poor surrounding casts (in this case just too young) and head coaches can’t with bad rosters. Magic “made” players around him better because he was feeding James Worthy, Kareem, and Byron Scott, not CJ Watson and Kelenna Azubuike.
The Thunder are young and talented. Youth doesn’t win this league. But this team is genuinely talented unlike the Warriors. KD and the Thunder (if they manage to keep these guys) will get there.

you are severely overrating durant
the dude can flat out score, but larry bird made his team better. also, i remember kg getting his team into the playoffs, not close to the worst team in the league. he plays really well against the warriors, so i’m going to assume you’ve only seen him play aganst the warriors and the rookie game….larry bird was the leader of a championship team and is up there as one of the most cluth players of all time, which is an attribute of every great champion. durant could get there, but you’re going a little overboard

Howard didn't even dunk last year.
He threw it in, so he shouldn’t have won. I want Nate or Rudy to upset him.

it's a complete travesty that one of the league's brightest stars along with an impressive young cast of Jeff Green and Russell Westbrook are stuck in Oklahoma City
Actually I think it’s a good thing. They have this nice young core , great fans and not much to distract them from their game. A young stud like durant will be able to concentrate more on his game in place like that than he could in a place like LA or NY with all the hangers’on wanting a piece of him. The small city thing worked out well for the Webber Kings, the Walton blazers, etc.
Now wheres the rubbers? Whose got the rubbers?

…I wouldn’t want people to view me as in sympathy or supportive of Chris Cohan becaue I’m a Warriors fan, I don’t think Oklahoma City should be spoken poorly of simply because of Clay Bennett. Unless you think it’s just a general travesty for an NBA team to be there, although I’ve driven through Oklahoma City and found it fine. They have good fans, a young core, and a shady owner. I’m quite empathetic, frankly.

Rudy
has no shot.
Durant is seriously crazy good. He’s just 20 years of age. I wonder how the people in Portland feels…
The HORSE game should be fun. Only thing I’m afraid of is brick after brick when attempting new shots.
I think Howard is going to take the dunk contest again. His first dunk, probably going to be the kiss the rim dunk. He didn’t try that one last year. His superman DUNK was one of the best. I’d like to see someone get as high as he did and try to throw the ball through the way he did.
I didn’t think Nate deserved the trophy the year he won especially after the 20 something attempt on that one dunk. Should have been Iguodala.

Ok, I’m not too observant as you all know but I was talkin with a sweet young thing and she asked me why the warriors were wearing red uniforms in a recent game and I told her I din’t notice but maybe I could find out? So were they red? Why?

It was nice of Dwight Howard to let Nate Robinson dunk over him.
I wanted D. Howard to win though.

Oh and also, Rudy should have gone through that first round..
he was robbed.

Kevin Durant will definitely be one of the most prolific scorers in the league (if he isn’t already). But there are many other things a player has to do to be considered a superstar, in my opinion.
It’s what separates Lebron from Melo, Wade from Mayo, Paul from Parker, etc.
I wouldn’t be so quick to crown Durant yet, he hasn’t shown us much outside of scoring just yet.

Its crap the Warriors got completely shut out of the all-star weekend.
Out of all the events they could have had a Warrior in something. Our great fanbase should have somebody to root for. Two years in a row they have done this. Somebody needs to write a letter the the NBA office.

seriously. i mean i think he would have done better than freaking danny granger in the 3-point contest.

just watched the dunk contest.
rudy by far had the coolest dunks.
listening to kenny smith bash him was pretty annoying. like he could actually come up with anything better. f that guy.
only reason rudy didn’t have a chance was because these were biased ass judges. just watch. rudy will come back next year and destroy everyone.
haven’t seen the 3 pt shootout but i hear it was pretty bad so maybe i won’t watch it.

maybe if he didn’t screw up about 100 times, he would have won. Nate and Dwight were far more creative. I mean seriously, did you see that 12ft dunk. The dude can probably touch the top of the backboard
According to the comminsioner of the nfl, 104 people retired last year. 7 due to age, and the rest because of Patrick Willis

really
don’t watch it i can even beat them, and the dunk contest was fixed more i think about it. Come on Howard and Nate had all those props ready like they knew what was gonna happen. Nate even went to dress like he knew he made the next round. That freaking off the board dunk was sick though.

Agreed
I would have voted Russell Westbrook in. I have no idea how he got voted in.
