    What team does Ms. HCP Jr. support? Let me guess - it's from Manchester or London

    those All-Star lineups looked stacked. Too bad the actual game is played with less intent then ordinary backyard recreational basketball.

    The guys have had a long season. They need a freakin' vacation. I think it would be best to move the All-Star game into August. The players looked like they didn't want to be in freezing cold Utah last year.

    Think the younger generation may see the bigger clubs fan base as silly and support the smaller ones. My son likes Brighton and Hove Albion.

    Looks like Dame might get his first time voted in as a starter

    I agree the players need a break. I also agree they probably thought Utah was almost the last place they wanted to be (excluding Portland).
    However. They really wouldn’t want to have to stop their summer vacation to go spend three days in Salt Lake in August. Maybe even more so with summer trades in full swing.

    The Blazers game against the Heat on February 27th has been flexed off of TNT. The game was originally scheduled for TNT with the thought Lillard would be traded to Miami.

    She honestly didn’t start watching EPL until about 18 months ago….she says she’s still trying to figure out who her favorite team is. Her college coach is from Liverpool and a diehard fan….trying to convert her. She has favorite players, but not a team yet.

    Considering their relative difference in strength, the block Wemby just had on Giannis is one of the best I've seen in a long time.

    Glad Pops put him back in. That said, Giannis is simply a beast. Brutal.
