Why the fukk was this not televised. :snoop:
HOUSTON — Count Warriors point guard Stephen Curry among those who support the NBA’s decision not to televise the All-Star Game draft this week.

“I’ve always been a proponent of protecting the players,” Curry said. “I know that’s the unpopular position in this day and age. We’re all grown men, and we can handle it. We’re All-Stars and what not. But we want to see how the whole format goes the first time, so it’s presented in the right light.”

Lebron James and Washington’s John Wall have both called for the draft to be televised, arguing that the All-Stars could handle the draft order because they’re all “grown men.” However, Curry recognizes the embarrassing possibilities the league would open players up to by televising the draft.

“It is an extreme honor to be an All-Star,” Curry said. “It sounds great that there won’t be any memes or gifs, whatever it is. Whatever the case is, you won’t be ridiculed for being an All-Star. You got to see how it plays out the first time around.”


He was scared, now he's claiming it should've been televised :beli:

I don't know why posters are making a big deal of steph's pick. Like he said in the interview, he drafted his selection with team balance in mind i.e drafting by position rather than strictly by names.

Shooting guard/point guard- harden
Power forward - giannis
Centre- embiid
Shooting guard- derozan

Thats certainly more balanced than just hoarding big men in the team like Lebron did.

Lebron starting 5 is better but not by much. Harden and steph are both top 5 players in the league easily, giannis is arguably the best player in his position in the league,embiid is a top 3 big man and derozan is an mvp candidate that can flat out score.

The gap is not as big as most posters are making it
