Before I cover the All-Star game events tomorrow and Sunday, here is a quick video recap.
Kobe Bryant Won't Be Winning the All Star MVP Award, According to Kobe-
Thunder dunk party, Russ goes crazy! -
Jimmy butler can't play in his second All-Star spot, where he deserved to be a starter, so Pau Gasol, also a great Bulls player, will suit-up for Butler. Butler has an injured knee and the Bulls are not doing so well.
But someone who will start hit a huge game winner a few days ago-
Short Update
The Sixers were on fire against the best team in the league, and they're the Sixers, so it was surprising when they came back and tied the game with less than a minute remaining. It seemed that the Warriors miscalculated the heart of the Sixers players, who used a strategy of, 'do so bad in the first half that they won't expect anything more in the second', and it nearly worked. It would've worked if the warriors weren't so deep, because Harrison Barnes nailed a 3-Pointer at the buzzer.
The Bulls have been very inconsistent the past few games, from losing big to teams like the Clippers, but still showing they can kill teams like the Lakers, but this win one, lose big, win one wave isn't very pretty, so what can the Bulls do to become one of the better teams in the League again? Well they're gonna have to fill the motivational and defensive force that was Joakim Noah, who they have lost to injury, because another weakness a team may suffer by is the lack of excitement before every game, especially in this dry streak before the All-Star game. To make matters worse, the star of the team Jimmy Butler, did not get the starting spot, although rusty players like Dwyane Wade and Carmelo Anthony did. This is pissing fans off from cities all around the League, because they've seen how hard Butler has been working.
