Ewing refused to play Gallo and his team got destroyed.

Wasn't it Dwight Howard who -- in some Allstar-Weekend interview said that this was Pat's chance to show what he can do as a coach? Let's hope that he was wrong. After all this is nothing but a pick up game.

Eric Gordon surprised me in that dunk-in. It was clear from the start that DeRozan is going to be in the contest. Gordon never had a chance. That is what I hate about the NBA sometimes. It reminds me of professional wrestling.

Look like the 2009 draft class have alot more creative-potential than the 2008 draft class. Rooks-140 Soph-128

Big steal of the draft: Big-Blair (equal the real Brand) should get the MVP with 22 pts & 23 rbds but.....
Tyreke Evans (equal D. Wade) 26 pts, 6rbd, 5 ast, and 5 steals, stole the MVP show at the tip off of the game.

The Rooks were running the solphmores off the court with such dazzling guard-play of.....Flynn, Jennings, Curry, Harden, Evans, Cappasi, and Big-Body-Blair were just to outstanding for the no-PG solphmores.
Where was Derick Rose? to lead the manipulation of guard-play with Westbrook, Gordon, and Mayo, maybe could've had a chance.....nah Flynn and Jennings speed would've just went faster.

I dont like the idea of Derick Rose playing Sunday when he belongs with his draft class of solphmore.....that made me want the rooks to win even more....MVP to the rookie lineup.

I want to trade Gallo for Cappasi ASAP.....do u think the Kings are willing???

So now it is Ewing's fault that Gallinari has a forearm injury and is not 100%?
http://www.rotoworld.com/content/pl...news.asp?sport=NBA&id=1472&line=129600&spln=1

Gallinari was stiff and looked like a robot, in the rookie-sophomore game. He made two quick shots and then missed his last two attempts.

His defense was nonexistent, just like the other sophomore's defense. I remember him getting scored on, on three different occasions, before getting benched.

Lopez didn't exactly have the greatest game either. The strength of the sophmore team was their size. But when your team is lead by Micheal Beasly, of course you won't exploit that. Just watch Beasly chuck up shot after shot after shot. Such a stupid game.

I remember when Pat Riley was thinking about drafting either OJ Mayo or Beasly. He picked Beasly because he has more potential. Beasly has Melo-like talent, yet continues to squander it, while Mayo is a team player on the Grizzlies when he easily could be a 22+ pt scorer. Imagine Mayo + Wade? Damn that would have been disgusting.

i think he botch that draft honestly.i mean, wouldn't gallinari be a better fit for someone like wade?

i know the minute beasley's measurements were not what everyone thought they'd be, that he wouldn't be the first pick in the draft i don't care what his numbers were is college.a 6-7 finesse power forward is not a good look in the league.what he shoulda done was draft mayo(who wouldn't really fit well with wade) and deal down maybe try and snag gallinari and chandler or lee from the knicks.

we woulda got what we wanted, and riley would have assembled a decent team around wade.

Miami would have revolted if the Heat took Gallo. And so would have Wade. No one knew who the Big Cock was then. Imagine how pissed Wade would get if he knew his lottery pick was injured most of the first year? Now it's easy to say Gallo is the perfect fit for a slasher like Wade, but it would have been suicide for Riley to pick Gallo two years ago. And I think Mayo and Wade could work out. Well technically Beasly+Wade would work really good if Beasly could ****ing play up to his ridicoulous potential, but hes a nutcase lol.

Nate is taking it tonight. Mark my words!!!!

Hopefully Gallo and Nate can take the crowns, they both are underdogs! People are getting tired of Nate so no one is picking him. And no one knows for Gallinari is so they arent picking him lol. Get your name out to these TNT analysts Gallo and go win it!

Great showing all weekend by Gallo and Nate. Lee tomorrow will continue the momentum. Very proud of the showing by both guys, Gallo looked a little timid, Next year- Look out. Nate the great does it again... Charles barkley is a cocksucker. If I had to hear him bad mouth the knicks one more time I would have flew to Dallas and "Attempted" to kick the ever loving shit out of him..

yeah charles is just a fat gambling addict anyways. He's a great shit talker and thats it.

good job Nate! now we'll see if the knicks try to trade him at the peak of his hype.

I'm really happy Nate won, but was that a dunk contest? We can hate on Barkley for his comment about the Knicks (which came from nowhere), but his comments on this year dunk contest were right. It sucked. If it wasn't for Nate I would have fallen asleep. What were Shannon Brown and Gerald Wallace doing? This is why the dunk contest needs a Superman vs Akron Hammer vs Kryptonate vs J-Smoove, that would be amazing

Charles Barkley is the biggest flip flopping bandwagoner to ever sit by an NBA analyst desk.He has a bad habit of jumping on the bandwagon of any team who is playing great basketball and loves to knock on any team who struggles.He also is a great appeaser whenever he gets confronted by someone who he previously bashed.

Two years ago he said that the Boston Celtics weren't a good defensive team but then a year later he picked them to repeat as champions.This season though, he said that they were too old to go deep into the playoffs.

In 2007 he was on the Dallas Mavericks bandwagon and picked them to win a championship.But then in 2008 when the Mavericks weren't as good as the Lakers he jumped off their bandwagon.

In 2006 he constantly criticized the Phoenix Suns for being an offensive minded team and would never give them credit for anything.But when he had to analyze the Western Conference Finals in front of the Phoenix Suns fans he sucked up to them by saying how much he loved the city of Phoenix and how the Suns were going to be a force to be reckoned with in the future.

Don't forget how he ripped Kobe Bryant in the playoffs a few years ago for being selfish on the court.But then apologized to Kobe after he was confronted by him.

I think that Scottie Pippen was right when he expressed how he wouldn't apologize to Charles Barkley, for his remarks, even at gun point.Charles Barkley has always been one of the most self absorbed and narcissistic human beings to ever play in the NBA.
