Happy to finally to see Lebron and Steph on the same team πŸ™πŸ€πŸ™πŸ€πŸ™
I think they had a few chances to play together in a few Team USA runs but Lebron backed out last minute after all those Finals appearances. Gassed.

An every All Star game they played they were either Captains or Steph was selected on the opposite team.
These two Ohio Natives should light it up together this Sunday.

KD picking his fellow teammate who’s jealous of Lebron just as much as himself came to no surprise πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£

Also loved how Lebron didn’t want no part of selecting Kawhi the Clipper πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Steph

Bron picked Kawhi in the previous allstar games though. Much rather he took Kawhi instead of wayoff p

My guy you didn’t post the whole story that they were pulled due to contact tracing and the Health and Safety protocol! That’s the nightmare is that there would be an outbreak while all those players are in one place. Yikes!!! 😷

Per Shams

76ers All-Stars Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons have officially been ruled out of the All-Star Game due to contact tracing.

If the covid protocols are the same during the playoffs. Things could get messy.

What if a fan of a rival team decides to get in contact with a star player and then say they have covid? And the star player has to miss most of a playoff series?

Even if nothing shady happens. A playoff run can be derailed by anybody in your life getting covid. The bubble saved us from such situations last playoffs.

And potentially remove the dunk contest. Star players are more interested in joining the 3 pt contest than dunk nowadays
