My prediction:
Blake has more flops than dunks

Whatever happened to John Wall?
Haven’t heard anything about him lately. I know he was injured earlier in the season, but what about right now?
Wizards are doing horrible so he's in the dark abyss of media coverage
If we hadnt ship him out for your scrubs you wouldnt have him so give us some respect
not scoring much or efficiently
still passing well though, but the Wiz are terrible so he isn’t getting much attention
BGriff playing
John Wall to BGriff will account for 30 points on alley-oops
Am I the only one who would trade anyone on our team for John wall?
Don’t care if he’s shooting poorly, he’s insane PG. His vision is best I’ve seen from a rookie since Chris Paul
nope
Only makes sense if we switch curry for him, and I don’t think that makes any sense
Don't care really
Wall is a potential franchise player. We can move Monta at some point.
Why test your luck with a potential franchise player
when you already have a legit franchise player?
Who?

Franchise players are guys like Kobe, Lebron, CP3, Duncan, Howard etc
Aka Big time stars.
Lets call Monta a low time star, a really good 2nd guy but if he’s your 1st guy I think your looking at the 6th-8th seed depending on your other players . Franchise guys should get you higher

no one can finish when curry lobs
crappy forwards
Aww
Curry missed that open 3. When did he make a fg?
harden looks like baron with the beard
on low res streams :)
I think I will compose an outraged letter to the network. Just for amusements sake.
Over

Is anyone going to make a post of TRADE CURRY because...
his passing skillz are terrible. he can’t even throw up an easy alley oop with no defense in an all star festivity?
and would anyone consider bringing in Scottie Pippen for a 10 day contract as a bench player?

steph's
really been the only unselfish one on the sophs
Yeah
Guys like Derozan and Harden chucking all over and Blair getting wide open shots all day. If guys were really trying, Curry would be owning
Ya. this game is lame to some. dont count...
but man.
that was SICK.
John Wall BOUNCE PASS ALLEY OOP TO BLAKE GRIFF.
Deeeyyyyuuuum.

Craig Sager has balls
As he’s interviewing John Wall, he also mentions Cousins having a history of not being happy when he doesn’t get the ball
lol u see john wall's face too?
D-Cousins is about to bank on Sager’s face within the next 37 minutes.

I saw part of that reaction. I’ll have to look on youtube for this interview.

damn!..bad game for Curry.
I gotta go watch that rookie/sophomre game when Monta was owning.
by davidleeisabeast on Feb 18, 2011 8:03 PM PST reply actions
He actually didn't do that bad
You could tell he wasn’t really trying, just having fun and trying to set other guys up. His stat line, even though it doesn’t matter, ended up being pretty good (13 pts, 8 asts, 6 rebs)
yeah you’re right!…it was just disappointing that he missed a few wide open 3’s but he’s alright…he’ll bounce back on the skills challenge i’m sure.
by davidleeisabeast on Feb 18, 2011 8:16 PM PST up reply actions
u are both right. but.
what kinda bothered me is that this was just for fun and he couldn’t even execute easy alley oops for fun.
no big deal. but i wish he would mess around in practice to master this even if it isnt an alley oop dunk.
place the ball ahead of defenders for high percentage shots, dunks or alley oops.
i honestly think this is acknowledgement and 3700 times of practice.

Fail: *high percentage shots, pick n roll layups, dunks or shots alley oop dunks or layups.

yup i agree
but he’ll get better at it. what’s important is he’s got vision. he’s finding creases to pass the ball, which is important for a PG.
But he really needs to step it up! Specially when he is on a big “show” like this. To date, he had 2 invitations from the NBA to showcase his talent but he underperformed. He did not do so well in the World Championship and now Rook/Soph. game. I hope he remains “darling” of the NBA and still get opportunities.

I’m sorry; this is a less than intelligent statement. Um, Curry is a BEAST on alley oops when it counts. Have you not seen the highlights of his LENGTH OF THE COURT alley oops to Dorell Wright??? In REAL competition?
Oops
Meant to post this up a couple replies to ROMES. Sorry
