    Curry hits all game except in the end. He did that last year also. Dame had to get the big shots.

    Curry +1000 to win mvp has to be one of my better wins recently. Just wish I put more than $5 on it lol

    i know it's stupid and corny but i really like how they did the top 75 thing at halftime. i'm a sucker for the history of the game.

    also ironic to hear dame announcement come right before clyde's

    I might be the only fan boy of major sports that has never given a rip about all star games. When there’s no competition factor I couldn’t care less about sports.

    Maybe it’s because I’ve always been an ultra competitive person myself.

    The most appealing thing All Star related to me is the HR Derby. Even that over the years has been more dull.

    So, he made 16 threes and probably 1 layup. I know people are enamored with the three ball and find it transcending basketball, but it just reminds me of watching a pickup game at 24 Hour Fitness. No denying the guy has superb touch and it's a 200 million dollar skill, but I lose attention pretty quickly when the game is reduced to playing between the three lines. A big reason I've found the Blazers boring for the last 4-5 years, and why the current version is a breath of fresh air.

    I'm with you. At least the MLB All-star game has some home field advantage in the playoffs built into it.

    Easy to be the truth when no one is guarding you, and it's just a glorified warmup session.

    One of those dunks, while athletic, was a glorified two handed reverse lay in. He was losing the ball
