Budenholzer is like a Doc Rivers clone. Dude rarely seems to know what he's doing but got carried to a Finals win despite almost blowing a series. Has racked up a lot of wins on the back of great players/rosters.

It's hysterical that Milwaukee replaced him with Doc. 

Counterpoint, he took the 2014-15 Hawks to the conference finals and the second best record in the NBA with this bag of shit roster.

Thats about as clear cut a case for a Coach of the Year  season as I can remember. He's got his issues, especially in the playoffs it seems, but I'd take him all day over Rivers.

Nick Young Wtf GIF

That was a good coaching job but there was nothing wrong with that roster, the East was fucking horrendous that season and they got swept by the Cavs in the ECF. 

I'm not saying he and Doc are bad coaches they're just both consistently underwhelming.

Yep. Well done. 

Minny is creeping up the standings. Just 3.5 GB of HOU. I thought they would figure it out at somepoint - Ant is too good not to.

NBA All Star weekend used to be the best in sports, now its just annoying and dumb

Outside of Barnes, TO and baron Davis the only 2 “celebrities” I’ve heard of were streamers Druski and Kai Cenat.

And why do most celebrities shoot a basketball the same way? Using both arms from the chest like a 6 yo?

The entire NBA regular season is a complete waste of time.  Worst regular season in sports. They could easily cut it in half and no one would care other than the owners.

Agreed.  Do players just not give a fuck?

Cracker is now consecutive 3X defending champ.

Spurs DQ'd from the skills contest for their "shot" attempts..LMAO 

Did they actually DQ them? 

If so that's fucking lame. This is why no one cares about this stupid shit. They did something funny to find a loophole. Fix the rules later.

The one where he jumped over the car was pretty cool. And when you say "jumped over a car", he actually jumped over the damn car. Not just the hood like that soft ginger sooner.

That skills competition was lame as hell. Bouncing a pass through a 5 foot wide hole is not much of a skill. I liked seeing the Spurs make a joke of it, which was within the rules and should not have disqualified them. Make your game better if you don't like it. The NBA needs to make it a whole lot more difficult, and have time penalties for missing the shots/passes. Make it a little interesting at least by showing off skills, and incentivize doing it right. 

The dunk contest was kind of lame. Buzelis couldn't do shit, and that guy from the Bucks was doing vanilla shit. Castle was great, and kind of got robbed on one of those "49" ratings by that dude on the end and Tmac. 

Mac is a great dunker, but he's not an NBA player and doesn't belong. The NBA needs to figure out how to get some big names with talent to do some dunks, because it hurts their brand to have such pedestrian competition for something that used to be Must See TV. 

I think the competition would be better off if they gave them a 1 minute timer to do whatever number of dunks they want. Like in figure skating, they don't do one triple axel and stop there, they do a lot to show off different skills and technique. It would make it more interesting and reward those who can make their dunks the first time by letting them complete several.

The issue I have with Mac’s dunks (not hating the player or the game, just making an observation) is that he’s using the person holding the ball as an inertia blocker, allowing him to stay vertical longer. It’s not that he’s pushing off, but stabilizing. Still, an incredible display and super imaginative. He’s a great dunker with or without props. I’m loving the stage that Steph is getting. Dude has been on display both nights, has exceeded expectations, and gets to play one more exhibition game. Team C has a chance to do the funniest thing ever.

Getting more quality/popular players doesn't mean shit to me when I can open up Instagram anytime and watch random dunkers that would wipe their asses with any of them. 

They should let Jordan Kilganon be a judge so he can just sit at the table and laugh at some of these clowns.

Give credit. Kid was fucking nails. Hit every dunk first try and had solid creativity 

He is great.   He's not a NBA player though.   If they are going to let a guy that has played 3 NBA games in the last 3 yrs continue to do these contests just give a few of the youtube pro dunkers 10 day contracts and put them in the contest.

YEP!!  Been saying this for yrs.   People keep talking about stars getting in but then they also talk about guys doing the same dunks.   Just cause its a star player does that make a regular dunk better?
