[Highlight] Scottie Barnes with the three-pointer for the win!
i love how much wembanyama hates losing. this fucker looks like he’s going to kill his whole team over a game that does not matter at all
There was a clip of young elemntary Wemby playi g ball and every single play the opponent scored, he grabbed the ball and slammed into. Every single basket
Imagine Chet made this shot over him ftw
Fuck lmao
Wemby would kick WW3 off then and there.
Bro is Azor Ahai coming to save the league
This is actually really good, just hope the old heads keep this energy.
kd is shooting 90 times and calling vogel the n-word in the post game interview
Both of those are allowed
encouraged, actually
KDF too busy in defcon 5 to be giving PR statements post all star game
i don’t think kd would ever give a PR statement. he’s one of the few athletes that i believe would just say fuck you all i said what i said
They 99% won’t, they think they’re too good for this
Well
I will gladly take that L, I’m loving this all star game.
Weren’t there reports from a few years ago that Lebron was side eyeing other all stars that said they wanted to try?
ASG format changes will never be able to save the all star game. You need a shift in cultural tone to do that. Wemby needs to literally dunk over everyone and call them pussies to their face. Even then, it would just take the old heads calling them “try hards” and no one will try again lol.
Tia did not age well
And I’m glad it didn’t! 3rd game should be interesting bc of point differential
They got no big lmaooo gonna be lebron tryn guard jokic and wemby. Idk man
Historically the best Wemby stoppers have been smaller bigs with strong bases and quick hands.
Mf sayin historically 😭 his prime is like 60 games
*Moussa
Doubt they could compete with 0 big men even if they tried. Adam Silver must’ve forgotten about that detail when planning this.
You could see there was some apprehension from some guys but wemby splayed hard and now one wanted to look bad. I think if team unc doesn’t bring tha energy Anthony Edwards is about to work them up.
they won’t, now that Wemby is knocked out no one will tryhard anymore lol
He’s not knocked out?
Nah next is Stars v Stripes
Wemby isn’t knocked out. The World can still make the final game if they win their next game.
Wemby big mad
He’s gonna kill KAT for shooting a terrible 3 and bad defense in OT
Gonna accuse KAT of being a US plant
Hope he looks at Murray too for that 0-6 performance. Killed their lead they had earlier lol
He does that. But fuck the world team and wemby. Amurrrrica for the win
Good (no sarcasm). He’s the reason why others are playing hard.
I was actually rolling when Ant said Wemby set the tone then basically his team beat him and rolled him in OT lol
Scottie Barnes ain’t no spot up shooter…
he aint gotta run to the corner to shoot like hes some 3rd option
bitch this aint jj redick this is a fuckin god human
Wooooosh!
Replied to the wrong OP big dawg
shooting 15% from 3 this calendar year lol
15% of the time, it works every time.
It’s 30% but who’s counting, definitely not 15% jesus c’mon
This calendar year is Jan and Feb and it’s true. Unfortunately. Trending back up tho 11.4% in Jan and 22.2 in Feb lmao
Statmuse says he has hit 13.6% of 3s in the 13 games this calendar year.
Seems like the guy was right.
“This calendar year” - Most cherry picked range
lol victor mad as hell. Love it
Looooveeee it. He’s gonna get that Dominican papi for his shit d. Love you tho big bodega
Weird cus if u watch this play wemby was slacking. He easily could have recovered better on the rotation
He was guarding the 3. He didn’t expect 2 guys to leave their man to guard the paint when a 3 would’ve won them the game.
He stops to watch the ball instead of rotating wings
The game doesnt end if they get a 2. You dont just want to give up a free layup. The defense is fine if wemby simply rotates to scottie on time
Wemby was selling it to guard the 3 on the other side of court, he was ok with a layup because it gave them a chance for another possession on offense. The breakdown on this play was 2 guys leaving their man open on the 3, not Wemby rotating from the opposite side of the court.
You dont just give up a free 2 points lol it still decreases your probability of winning
Completely illogical
Wemby thought everybody had the same thought as he did and decided not to rotate on an open 3
You know what also decreases your chance of winning, 2 people leaving their man open for 3
Its a super common situation in 3x3 basketball since they play first to 21, they dont defend the 2 for this exact reason.
Better to have a guaranteed chance to wrap it up than give up the chance altogether.
Try watching some 3x3 ball. They play first to 21 points. When someone needs 3 for the win they literally let the other team get the free 2 points just to guarantee getting a chance of wrapping the game up. Its the same situation here. Defending the 2 is silly at best, stupid at worst.
Yea I think you just dont understand the format
I think he expected Kat to stay home since a 2 point shot wasn’t going to win

[removed]
You are so funny
u bum
Wemby saved the ASG by being a tryhard and setting the tone. This actually wasn’t half-bad
Barnes matched it, as Scottie Barnes always does.
SCOTTIE BARNES FOR PRESIDENT 🦅🇺🇸
Common Scottie Barnes success.
I was actually sports entertained as fuck, that was geniunely a fun game thanks to Cade, Wemby, KAT and some other guys who ended the game. Also, Michelle Obama looks like 30 while Barack looks 40, they’re 62 and 64. My only complaint is long breaks
Scottier Barney is a real American hero
Scottington Bartholemieu III balling out.
Wemby saved the all star game
Scottie with some insane defensive highlights in this AND the game winning 3? I must be dreaming.
Edit: oh ya and Scottie DPOY
Scottie Barnes is the best player of all time!
Damn him for helping the Stars. Haha
BAAAAANG
We got a clutch defensive possession to send it to OT & a game winner.
SCOTTIE FC WE UP
What a nice pass by Duren there, made such a good play even if Barnes decided to pass Ant would still be miles open.
Crazy he found the best available shot after leaving his feet as a big.
I was actually impressed by his passing throughout the game. I don’t watch a lot of Pistons games but I don’t remember him dishing out like this there.
Sct Brns the goat
This was a good all star game. I said it
If we get this for the whole thing I’ll actually be impressed
Sct Brn
Future face of this league Scottie Barnes
his face was all over my tv tonight, he’s a face of the league in my books.
Thank you face of the league Wemby
most entertaining all star game so far in like the past 3 years. Wemby got these boys really hoopin
Shot out to Wemby, the energy he came with made these mfers play a little harder
Wemby made this competitive. His reaction to his team doubling a 2 pointer lol
Thanks Wemby for setting the tone! That one was entertaining!
This is good, Vic losing his shit is hilarious
Lol 😆 Scottie B for the win. Wemby is right to be upset. No need to help that much the paint
This is scottie barnes 7th three since January first lmao
if i had bam instead of scottie i’d be seething all over this thread too
Shout out to Wemby!!!!
I just wanna point out it was Scottie defending Wemby.
Not the supposed “DPOY favourite” Chet. Scottie.
SCOTTIE FOR DPOY
Wemby is pissed. This was a great game. We might be back!
I actually like Wemby being mad at losing even though its an all star game.
Wemby had to come from the other side to close out that shot because his teammates couldn’t be bothered, it’s clear why he’s pissed
Scottie playing D and hitting game winners. My MVP!
This is so peak
Props to Wemby for coming out gunning. Ant confirmed he set the tone. Hope to see more of that in the next game.
Wemby that one coworker who be doing too much
Honestly Wemby, Ant and Kat thanks for actually trying you made this game watchable. Jokic you deserve the MVP for making Jamal Murray look like an All star during this season.
Amazing first game. Silver with another W idea
Adam? Is that you?
In season tournament plus this has been great ideas
ADAM? IS THAT YOU????
the in season tournament is the reason we have a billion back to backs and in general a shit schedule.
That’s not true at all. We had a bunch a back to back since the dawn of the nba.
It is true, look at the schedule before and after it became a thing. NBA was getting decent at making a good schedule and then the IST cramped it all up.
Still better than the 5 straight games shit in the 60s
Outside of the 2019-2020 season the b2bs average for teams have been around the same number since the nba made that concerted effort in 2014-2015 (the average was 19.2 that year). This year is 14.4, last year was 14.9.
Would’ve been good no matter what with the inclusion of Wemby tbf
Wemby was there last year and it was trash
Rare W from Adam Silver
Good win BUT anything to do with the game itself. Tanking/ref/gambling/flopping…. are still big issues
Great defense KAT
Nice pass by Duren too
Great ASG so far. No prolonged stupid intros. Defence. Running sets. Celebrations and heartbreak on a game winner. Love it.
smh typical Towns
I’m having fun.
Gaslight me more Papa Silver! What will this sub complain about now? I saw someone crying about the graphic in OT.
Murray was a double agent
Of course KATs defense fucks it up. And I’m a KAT lover!
Deni and KAT both leaving their man to guard the paint instead of the perimeter.
The team World is doomed the moment the top 4 players in the world are injured.
Why tf the collapse like that on Jalen Duren lmaoooo let that man attempt that shot 😭
Finally love seeing them play like it matters a little
Why the fuck they dont let them score for 2 and have another attack,are team world dumb
God. This is making me feel like everything is ok. And now I have Obama on my screen. I miss that voice
Now this was entertaining!
team world kinda sold bro wemby was so pissed
I’m with you Wemby, a very highly regarded play by Team World there cuz why the fuck would you collapse and help
Holy shit that stadium is empty af.
You can tell at 9s when the LED’s go off.
Wemby brought it and KAT sold lol. Wemby led in points, had 3 blocks and 6 rebounds and made a game tying 3 right before this.
Really enjoyed this game.
Wemby big mad, good.
Victors gonna’s call ICE on KAT.
Scottie didn’t even know he hit a game winner at first… hilarious stuff
Wemby mad when he is the one jogging over barely trying to close out.
both avdija and kat with the terrible defense and low game awareness
Scottie’s Barnes owns your poverty country
Murray needs to get the fuck out of this building please
