Team usa.. lol :td
I'm thinking the USA should have put some tall guys on the roster. It doesn't matter how many shots the World team misses, they just get the rebound and take another.

You really hate Faried that much? He's another one that was perfect for a no-defense game, but I don't hate him or anything. Boy's got some springs.Quote:

I don't even know why they had Ingram there, he was scared of the other bigs..

Hernangomez torched the Spurs a week or so ago, and that poor bastard didn't even get a shot attempt. But even he got 6 rebounds.

oh sure they gave him a chance but he's put in his own work... he bought his way in.. he toiled for min. $ for two seasons under the radar. Sure Pop gave him the opportunity but he'd just as soon benched or waived him if Simmons didn't put in the work... it's just the media chatter. It just annoys me a bit that the player himself doesn't get the credit bc it's the Spurs.Quote:
