Win or Go Home! The NBA All-Star break is upon us and it’s a break for even us fans that go through the yearly rollercoaster ride that is fandom: from watching every game of our favorite team, the emotional ups and downs after big wins or embarrassing losses, to the reading of every article, tweet, and discussion board topic that mentions our favorite team on the internet.

There’s nothing more exciting for NBA fans than to play hypotheticals such as Michael Jordan vs. Kobe or LeBron, or the ’96 Bulls versus other historically great teams from another era, or maybe the countless different rumors and possibilities regarding trades (the ESPN Trade Machine has been working overtime lately) before the fast approaching trade deadline. “What if” scenarios are fun unless of course your last name is Winklevoss.

You gotta hand it to Shane Battier for standing in and taking a charge that included a face full of Russell Westbrook’s package. You won’t see LeBron playing that kind of defense in a Heat, 110-100 win over OKC. Of course NBA idiots thought that last night actually meant something in the grand scheme of the season.
It’s one f-ing game in mid-February that nobody will remember...
