The last enjoyable moments I remember from All Star break involved Vince Carter. Downhill since then.
I don't even watch the All Star game anymore. I have no interest in the no defense making it a glorified layup line. I would watch a game where all the stars play like its the playoffs.
For each game we lose, the more it will cost to extend OG.
Maybe we are simply a bad team without our key starters.
Give them more motivation to come back healthy with a purpose. We clearly need Jules, OG and others to be a good team. Without them including DDV, we suck. And that’s ok

They should just make it the three point contest, and the dunk contest. Clyde and Gus Johnson judge the dunk contest.
Winners get 10 million each.

Wouldn't mind a HORSE contest and a one on one game.
The flopping in the NBA makes me sick.
Burks looking slow out there.
we are clearly not going to win this game sit Hart and Brunson. Lets accept our fate and try to avoid more injuries.
Did I just gloss over how infuriating Burks can be during his first tenure here or does he just need more time for the Detroit stink to wash off?
Maybe JB can get another 50 point game?

Oh yeah.
There is ZERO gameplan by THIBS and subZERO reason for Brunson to be in this game. So frustrating.

Burks is playing over his head in this role. At least at this stage of his career. Hopefully he’s better when the team is healthier and he has less usage.

Losing “Grimes for these two pistons” blows.
That piston stink has a mildew smell.
My guess, it takes time to remove.

A bit harsh. Guessing that Bogs isnt used to putting this much effort on D, and got hurt in the process. Burks looks like he had more freedom to create on a cellar dweller. Burks is starting to show better decision making, and he's starting to hit those 3s.
They're being counted on now more than they will be when we're at full strength. Grimes needs more seasoning before he can help a contender, which is what we need right now. No complaints here.
Thank God it's Friday! (All Star Break)
Another bad 2nd quarter sank us.
Guys showed why they can't be counted on to play big minutes.
Deuce 2-11, Burks 5-16 in his first start.
J Hart continues to worry me.
Hopefully Burks and Bod work on defensive rotations and fitting in on offense over break.
These two past games show how hard it is for one player (Brunson) to carry a mediocre team.
How IHarts play was so impactful.
How maybe the answer was to keep Grimes(defense) and pick up a waived spark plug(Dinwiddie)
But true judgment comes only when we have our full roster healthy.
