Fans should wait until Durant’s replacement is picked before freaking out about no All-Stars, I still think Melo has a good chance to be the choice.
If he’s not? A little more motivation for him, he will get there it’s only a matter of time. – 4:41 AM

I’m nervous about Carmelo. Hamstrings are tricky, especially with older players. I wonder if the Lakers more aggressively pursue forwards at the deadline if they’re worried about this injury, but for now, it’s too early to speculate. – 1:35 AM

Melo out for the rest of the game with a strained right hamstring, per the Lakers. Obviously, no bueno. AK – 11:21 PM

LAL trail 59-54 at the half, with LAC scoring the final four points of the period.
We’ll have an update on ‘Melo soon. Anthony, who was critical to LAL’s win last night, had 7 points in 11 minutes of this 2nd night of a B2B. – 11:05 PM

I’m way more concerned about what a Carmelo Anthony injury could mean to the Lakers than I thought I would be in February. – 11:01 PM

Carmelo Anthony appears to have hurt something on that last offensive possession, and asked for a sub as LAC leaked out in transition for a dunk. He walked straight to the locker room. – 11:00 PM

Looked like Melo tweaked something (leg related) – back to the locker room – 10:59 PM

Melo hit a pair of 3’s around a Reaves triple, and Howard drew the 3rd PF on Hartenstein with an and-1.
LAL lead 40-36 with 8:23 left in the 2nd Q. – 10:41 PM

The most fun possible iteration of the All-Star Game would be just picking the captains and letting them draft any player in the NBA.
LeBron using the final pick on Carmelo instead of Rudy Gobert would be the absolute funniest possible Twitter moment relating to the ASG. – 7:36 PM

On the JJJ All-Star stuff: He has a chance to be a replacement for Green.
Both wildcards went to guards, it shouldn’t be another guard added.
Typically, commish has let fan vote prevail. But he’s not picking Carmelo, so maybe Ayton? He’s only played 29 games… JJJ has a shot. – 7:18 PM
