I didn't watch last night.  What happened?  I only see our rookie hitting one three.  Was this his entire game?  Since he's our only Hawk in all this big weekend of nothing, give me details, please.

yep, that was it.  Hit one 3, missed a few.  His team lost and they were 1 and done.

 

Seems like the perfect representation of the Hawks season in terms of all star weekend worthiness.

To be fair Coop has 50x the talent of Jose. Ok not 50 but 2 times the talent? 
 

It’s all confidence and toughness that’s it for Jose. I like that I’m not knocking him, he’s making the most of the talent he has, he probably has the skills of an hood high school prospect but not NBA, no way Jose.

Not a knock, I’d take 12 Jose’s on my squad.

Of course Jose would be the original..

The second would be Hose B. - (firefighter joke)  Carry the hell on!

Im picking up what youre puttin down but this is a results based bidness.  Saying Cooper has more talent is like saying Yi Jianlian was more talented than Kobe.

And yes, if you're playing from home, I just compared Jose Baller-ado to Kobe.

In this scenario, no Trae but Bronny James is there? Riiiight, who works for the ringer again..

Isnt it that prick Celts fan, Bill “I have less talent that Ben” Simmons?

 

Desmond Bane.. all star? He will be lucky to be a starter by then.

He was a stud. He just went to the..….

…. wait for it…

 

 

Wrong system   ala OJ Mayo, I expect both of them to be 2028 All stars.

Note: This  just in, Yi ain’t done touring LA, he just shut down Gucci to shop by himself.

True Yi Jeon-Leon probably came a bit before his time but still.  Dude was a bust with a capital B.  I'm sure he's well paid for the Guangdong Long Dongs - seriously, how's that an actual team name? . Squd, if I can find a jersey, that's your wedding gift all day long.
