Kyrie Irving said future NBA All-Star games to include more defense

"They wanted me to score 50.those guys did a great job of allowing me to do this".

The Sixers will return to practice on Wednesday of next week, so aside from re-runs of some of the best games in the first leg of the season, this may be your only chance to get your Sixers fix for quite some time.

"I wish it was this way in regular season", Westbrook said. I'm having a great time.

Davis placed the accomplishment behind his gold medals from the Olympics and World Cup and his NCAA championship, but called it "an award that I'm going to cherish forever". Murray finished the game with 36 points, four rebounds and 11 assists.

Westbrook came out gunning for a third straight MVP award, and he almost got it by finishing with 41 points in just 19 minutes, while Durant had 21 points.

Perhaps the most eye-catching All Star was young Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, whose 30 points included 12 dunks - some of them worthy of a Saturday night billing in the dunk contest. He scored 41 points, including seven 3-pointers, but West coach Steve Kerr subbed Westbrook out of the game for the final minutes while leaving Davis in, and the Pelicans' star scored eight more points. Durant signed with the Warriors as a free agent after last season. They passed each other the ball and slapped hands in the pregame layup line, and not long after Westbrook checked into the game the former Oklahoma City teammates provided one of the game's top highlights - a give-and-go, capped by Durant lobbing the ball to set Westbrook up for a dunk.

Another intersecting piece of information that recently surfaced is that Apple just joined the association of QI standards. In June 2016, Apple iPhone sales hit 1-billion mark - a figure roughly equivalent to seventh of the world's population.

With Westbrook's documented shots at Durant thoroughly noted (here, here, and here), people wondered how it would go. But it was easy, because his teammates were yelling every time the other team scored it or we got a rebound, his teammates were yelling, 'Don't pass, Jamal!

"It's not even something I'm thinking about", Durant said of interacting with Westbrook in a "SportsCenter" interview Friday.

If Westbrook and Durant can find peace, maybe there's hope for Anthony and Phil Jackson, and Charles Oakley and James Dolan.

But it goes to show just how dominate the crop of extremely young players in today's National Basketball Association really is - and that pushes Joel Embiid and All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving down to fourth and fifth on the list, respectively.

The WNBA match-up will take place between Candace Parker of the West and Lindsay Whalen of the East. Parker is a former #1 overall pick in the WNBA draft who is a two-time MVP in the league.

"It was just amusing, with all the talk and everything going into the game", Warriors coach Steve Kerr said.
