Jeremy Lin is that dude. He is the real deal, NBA's most improved player this year lol.

Lin got 23 and 10. Steve Novak lighting it up, damn this team is so much more likeable without Amare and Melo.
that's a BS thing to day.

Last year, late in the season, the Knicks had a nice win streak. They had Melo, Amar'e & Billups. Now we actually have a PG who can distribute the ball, and the team is winning.

The real problem is we haven't had a constant variable. Need to see how the offense functions with a solid PG this year (because we have less bench depth than last year) with a healthy lineup. Once we see how the offense functions, then we can judge how Melo fits in.

Kyrie missed last game with a concussion. Should I expect him to be done for his career, and become a mythical "what if?" who I reminisce about with my kids?

I think I read a study one time that said a concussion is nearly impossible to come back from.

i hate laker fans who act like this celtics game means anything
overrated rivalry IMO

it was cool in the 80s, it was cool the past few years. but today it's meh. sure KG and Pierce and Ray and Rondo hate Pau and Kobe and Bynum, but the rest of the players meh

the games meant nothing when the teams both sucked, or when one sucked. a true rivalry doesnt matter about record

I blame the media :)

Not surprised Dirk made the All-Star team, although he didn't deserve it, Dallas was gonna get an All-Star.

No real other complaints with the West squad... Maybe Gay/Ellis over Nowitzki/Nash.

Denver probably should have had somebody, but Gallinari got hurt and Gasol is having a better year than Nene.

Turn on TNT man.

They're about to announce the East.

Hopefully Deng can get a spot.

Deng!

I got no beefs with the East squad.

Deng could have been replaced with Josh Smith or Rajon Rondo for the last spot IMO, but I'm happy for him.
