NBA All Star

Watched the All Star game last night. After the kind of festivities that only the Sin City could dish out, they eventually got around to the game. Wade had a quiet night. LeBron was explosive in patches. Kobe was great as usual and walked away with the MVP.

“The thing about Kobe, he’s got a competitive edge to him that you can just sense, you can just feel,” said Phoenix Coach Mike D’Antoni, who led the West team. “He was the first guy, when the lead got down from 30 or so, that said, ‘Come on, put the hammer on them.’ He’s going to play hard every time he’s on the floor.”
