[Turrable]

There's a dunk contest later, and Kendrick Lamar and...that's about it

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

I want to know what lottery did Nick Cannon enter.

 

[Turrable]

But Nick Cannon's hilarious
 

 

[Blacken]

I do not understand how a velociraptor can shoot a basketball, let alone do so from half-court.

 

[southshoresoxfan]

someone let me know when the dunk contest starts (and/or Kendrick Lamar), binge watching Dexter at the moment

 

[ElUno20]

I feel like if you just watched the skills contest, your Saturday night isn't going so well.

Also winning it should come with free taco bell for a year or at least a trophy in the shape of a taco

 

[ElUno20]

I will give the NBA props for tying in charity donations to each event tonight

 

[Turrable]

Really disappointed the CEO of taco bell doesn't have a beard and wear a drug rug

 

[southshoresoxfan]

My proposal for All-Star Saturday would be way more entertaining.
 
3 on 3 tourny, retired player, current player, celebrity.
 
1 on 1 tourny- Current NBA all stars
 
3pt shootout-Bracket style, not just overall score
 
Dunk Contest

 

[Grin&MartyBarret]

Don't understand the money ball change in the 3 point contest. It was the one event that wasn't broken. Why change it? Now you lose the ability to fairly compare overall scores to guys like Bird.

Was just coming to say the same thing. It was the most basic, least subjective event that actually showcased an NBA skill. Why mess with it at all?

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

"A'ight!" - the cannon of Nick Cannon.

 

[Nomar813]

I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more Joe Johnson.

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

Hope the Truth makes fun of Joe.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Nelly vs Bellinelli

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

In the "you learn something new every day" department, Nelly used to babysit Bradley Beal.

 

[southshoresoxfan]

Nick Cannon is fucking cringe-worthy

 

[southshoresoxfan]

Holy shit beal

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Wow, that was pretty cool.

 

[Blacken]

Hope the Truth makes fun of Joe.

"There's a reason they traded your ass"

 

[The X Man Cometh]

Every year I watch this, and wonder why I watch it.

 

[The X Man Cometh]

Holy shit beal

Forza Italia

 

[The X Man Cometh]

Next will he dunk over a Fiat?

 

[Turrable]

"Beal is just some English pig with no brain"

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

I could watch Chuck, Kenny, Ernie and Shaq commentate a mahjong tourney

 

[soxhop411]

Why are they still showing this commercial?

 

[southshoresoxfan]

Kendrick Time!!!

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Halle Berry
Hallelujah

 

[southshoresoxfan]

Hope he does his track from the NBA2k14 sountrack

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

"Nick don't kill my vibe!"

 

[The X Man Cometh]

First time a man named Kendrick has ever smiled on a NBA court since forever.

 

[allstonite]

Did he slip a "fuck" through on the first song?

 

[southshoresoxfan]

First time a man named Kendrick has ever smiled on a NBA court since forever.

 
Kudos

 

[southshoresoxfan]

I think I like the new format?

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

Head to head? WTF?

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

I think the TNT show is the funniest thing on TV

 

[The X Man Cometh]

Head to head? WTF?

 
Not enough gimmicks. I want a ball pit and a rotating platform.

 

[allstonite]

I think the TNT show is the funniest thing on TV

It's great. Chuck looked annoyed and can't wait to hit bourbon street

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

"A'ight!"

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

I am very confused as to what is going on now.

 

[southshoresoxfan]

I actually like it, seems like its going smoother than the days of Chris Andersen attempting 10 dunks in a 1:30 period

 

[soxhop411]

I hate this format…. Hate it

 

[southshoresoxfan]

Lilliard is THROWING dunks down. Wow.

 

[The X Man Cometh]

Lilliard is THROWING dunks down. Wow.

 
Wasn't expecting that.

 

[Grin&MartyBarret]

NBA All Star Weekend: Where Nelly is still famous.

 

[allstonite]

"Did nelly babysit him too? Did nelly have a babysitting business?" Kenny

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

I hope Magic gives Nick Cannon AIDS.

 

[southshoresoxfan]

Ben is gonna toss a serious dunk down this rd. Head was above the rim on his last dunk a la Gerald Green.
 
still one of the most underrated dunks in contest history was his through the legs dunk in his socks.

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

I am really hoping Ben McLemore brings out Kendrick Lamar and as part of one of his dunks, pick pockets him.

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

I hope Magic gives Nick Cannon AIDS.
