No wonder the kid likes him. ETA: For anyone that can't tell, that's a limited edition cereal with Tyler Herro branding. Generic Fruit Loops. But the purchase does go to benefit his charitable foundation at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got them here at the office today. I got two boxes so we could open one and keep one. (I know... I know...) We'll probably break into one later tonight. He's got a basketball game at 7. I mean... I figure they're good. How difficult can it be to make a Fruit Loop like cereal??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proudfeet Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Please do report back on the cereal. I've always been curious if they do more than change the packaging. Anyway, the Nuggets won by 30, but it felt like from the refs were putting more than a thumb on the scale from the third up till when the Bucks pulled their starters in the fourth. They were getting the softest calls while the Nuggets have to be clobbered to get a call. It was rather disconcerting. It feels like how I feel Tim Donaghy would have called games.

Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 ^^^ Also, the All-Star game in general is dumb, and this is the dumbest one yet that should never even be happening. Who really cares? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argonath Diver Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 My relationship with the NBA is a broken marriage. I can't imagine leaving it, but there's just so much I dislike. The All Star Weekend is a joke in other years, and this one is still that *and* a desperate money grab *and* a health risk that the city of Atlanta explicitly does not want to be happening within its confines. Now everyone go buy a Kia and some Gatorade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Why not enjoy viewing an All-Star Game from a time when the players cared? The West, led by Magic Johnson and ably supported by a terrific squad, including an outstanding game from Ralph Sampson, finally defeated the East in 1985. Plus, this was the famous "Michael Jordan Freeze-Out" orchestrated by Isiah Thomas, which turned out to be a poor choice for a variety of reasons. See the coaches criminally under-utilize Calvin Natt and Robert Parish! Gape at the unconventional shots that Dr. J's enormous hands allow him to take! Glory in the plain, useful uniforms that were unique to this game! Revel at the competition for rebounds in the paint that today would result in multiple flagrant fouls! Cringe at Dick Stockton's comb-over! Gaze at the stars of yesteryear in unaccustomed colors! Shrink in terror at the look Moses gives Kareem when he gets one of his shots blocked! Boggle at the sight of actual defense being played in anger! Marvel at the immensity of Michael Jordan's fur coat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never played a game (and I've played various sports a lot over my life) where you pick sides as a captain, but you pick your mates instead of the best available player. it's the whole point of having captains making selections. If kyrie is so pathetic and fragile that his ego couldnt have handled that (which let's be honest that's a given) he needs to grow the fuck up. The way to make a pointless game less pointless is to treat it seriously. That being said It would make more sense if they changed the east v west rules to make it more interesting every few years. USA v rest of world. Old v young (maybe 27 is the cut off) etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proudfeet Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Maybe he does think Kyrie is the best player. He did choose to play with Kyrie in the first place. For what its worth, he picked Harden first too for the subs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 It's a meaningless game and he picked his actual teammates as a sign of respect. They shouldn't even be holding the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briantw Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 They should just go back to East/West now that the talent level isn't so lopsided in the West's favor like it was for ten to fifteen years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhom Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 When exactly did the All Star game morph into this unrecognizable exhibition? Was it a gradual change in the era of the banana boat?
