Fuck off Zaza lol..

 

[theapg]

lol@ the first return of All Star votes

GSW pulling a KC Royals.

 

[phanphare]

kemba gettin no respect

 

[Christian]

What, no JaVale?

 

[Atomic Playboy]

All-Star voting is basically always wrong anyway, but fortunately it's for a meaningless event. Still, if you have to pass up someone like Blake or Cousins or Aldridge getting in because of Zaza Pachulia... Jesus. Kawhi/Davis will be a lock with coaches voting, so no worries there.

Who are all these people voting for Derrick Rose? Democracy was a mistake.

 

[Marz]

Majority of people cant even pick the correct choice for president of the U.S. so its not surprising.

The Basketball Hall of Fame asked the Lakers for an item from Julius Randle after his triple double against the Memphis Grizzlies. Lakers sent his jersey & shorts.

Don Julio a future HoFer confirmed.

 

[SerAardvark]

GSW pulling a KC Royals.

More that he gets a ton of votes from Georgia (hence his vote total last year). That's why he's so far ahead of Draymond, for example.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

GSW pulling a KC Royals.

People were complaining about the Giants doing it the year prior to KC I believe.

 

[Hyperactivity]

Not surprised Embiid is so high, he's been amazing with social media, being a lovable fact that messes around with people, is funny, charming, etc. Iirc I started voting for him as my only "totally doesn't deserve it but fuck it" pick

Kyrie and wade starting as guards is a damn shame. Lowry and one of wall,IT, or DeRozan are 100x more deserving of starting for the East backcourt

Glad giannis is getting his respect. Will be annoyed if curry gets voted in, when harden and Westbrook are so far ahead of what anyone else should even conceivably be voting for.

 

[El Topo]

Yeah, Embiid is putting up great numbers and he's amazing at social media. Not surprising he's getting votes. I still hope we get the Zaza in the Allstar game this time.

Zaza for the only warrior to start maybe

I'd be fine with that

 

[Jarate]

Isn't the fan vote only 50% of the vote this year, or is that when the next CBA hits

 

[Vanillalite]

Wtf

Hawks trading Korver to the Cavs?

Who the fuck are we getting in return?

 

[Line_HTX]

I'm loving this hour long pre-game show from CES 2017.

 

[phanphare]

Wtf

Hawks trading Korver to the Cavs?

Who the fuck are we getting in return?

that's a great landing spot for korver, those uncontested 3's are going to be easier to come by

 

[Vanillalite]

As a Hawks fan I'm not even mad we traded him per say. Though I'd prefer it not to the Cavs.

I just need to know what value the Hawks got back in the deal.

 

[Bread]

holy fuck

Irving/Smith/Korver/Lebron/Love

that fuckin death lineup

 

[Mortemis]

Didn't Embiid get a bunch of votes because some celebrity promised to go out with him when he becomes an all-star or something like that?

I'll look for it but yeah Embiid is amazing on twitter

edit: yahhh dude got curved by Ri for not being an all star apparently 😂

 

[jman2050]

Korver's going to get the most open looks ever.

 

[Vanillalite]

holy fuck

Irving/Smith/Korver/Lebron/Love

that fuckin death lineup

Korver probably doesn't start. He's been an off and on starter for the Hawks this year let alone Cleveland.

 

[alr1ght]

Wtf

Hawks trading Korver to the Cavs?

Who the fuck are we getting in return?

Probably dumped Mo Williams' and Birdman's contracts. I'd like them to get rid of Dunleavy as he's useless now, but he's signed for 2.

 

[Line_HTX]

Let's go, Rockets!

Nice, Beverly is back starting.

Fuck Russell.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

I imagine the Cavs are sending Felder back to ATL as he's the only thing resembling an asset Cleveland has.

 

[K.Jack]

holy fuck

Irving/Smith/Korver/Lebron/Love

that fuckin death lineup

I imagine the Cavs are sending Felder back to ATL as he's the only thing resembling an asset Cleveland has.

We do still have that $9M Varejao exception, don't we?

 

[Hitta93]

holy fuck

Irving/Smith/Korver/Lebron/Love

that fuckin death lineup

Didn't even think of this.

I might want that Warriors/Cavs rematch now lol.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

We do still have that $9M Varejao exception

Yeah but you have to give up something. Korver has value, he's not some throwaway/filler.

 

[K.Jack]

Yeah but you have to give up something. Korver has value, he's not some throwaway/filler.

It'll be McCrae, Liggins, or Felder, along with the money. I can live with that.

 

[Line_HTX]

Get somebody else to fuck up Russell, Jesus Christ...

 

[friskykillface]

Hawks are dumb if they don't try to get someone good in return

 

[Vanillalite]

Hawks need to get someone decent in return.

That being said a lot of the internet right now is Treating 2017 Korver like 2014 Korver. He's aged and not the same player. Plus he can't play D at his age.

He'd be great extra scoring for the Cavs though off the bench.

 

[Line_HTX]

Finally making some easy threes.

 

[alr1ght]

3 team deal. Dunleavy gone. ��

Sources: Atlanta and Cleveland are finalizing terms on Korver deal, with Mike Dunleavy Jr., likely moving onto a third team through Atlanta.

 

[Cheebo]

Hawks need to get someone decent in return.

I saw it said to be for a Mo Williams salary dump and a heavily protected pick.

 

[Messi]

Prob just gave them Steph Currys soul

 

[OldMan]

Hawks roster explosion was 2 years two late.

 

[Cheebo]

Yep looks like it's for the Mo williams contract and a pick:

Just let him play while they focus on Kyrie X LeBron
If he can't make open 3's then he's the Cavs Max Barnes

eMo Williams back

If cavs were smart they'd trade Shump for Milsap to get some extra bodies for the Warriors

 

[K.Jack]

Hawks roster explosion was 2 years two late.

Yeah they reacted way too slowly, and have lost every asset for no tangible return.

 

[SyenceLabb]

Korver is definitely an upgrade over Dunleavy.

 

[Line_HTX]

God dayum, Eric Gordon is so good off the bench.

 

[Vanillalite]

He can't play D though. That's his bigger issue.

 

[TTG]

Eric Gordon, Dekker, Nene, Brewer. Where does that bench unit rank? I'm gonna say top 3, but

Spoiler

I don't think I can name a better one right now.

 

[Line_HTX]

Finally playing the way they want to play after falling as far as 14 points.

 

[darkwing-buck]

Holy shit Korver on the cavs. Dude's gonna make it rain.

Wtf. Hawks need more shooting and trade their only shooter? LOL.

Hate to see Kyle go but would love for him to get a ring. Great trade for Kyle, seems like the Hawks are just doing him a favor.

Looks more likely that Millsap will be moved.

Hawks are blowing it up. Dwight to the Nets or Knicks next.

Don't believe Windhorst over Woj.

Lebron's sniper squad is a scary sight my goodness.
