The reason why Houston has outrageous ticket prices must be the outrageous wages we pay for decent players. lilVO and wwt play for free in comparison.

16/17 30-Game Update

We knew Miami would probably be worse, but bottom of the Conference?! There's still only 4 wins up to a playoff spot, but SebJr needs to help his team find their form soon. The same goes for reelworld II, though nobody has expected anything from the Bucks for a while now.
hobbers and the Celtics seem to have dropped off a bit, though their most recent form paints a different picture, perhaps. Two Nil and Dr. Junior will be very happy with their teams so far, while a bit further down Stobzilla II and BenitoSTARR are fighting to get back to the playoffs. 15-16 is a losing record, but it seems to be enough so far. The same goes double for Skizzlet and his Hawks. Their 4-game losing streak is not a great sign.
No surprises here. Lil' V.O. and weeweetee are fighting for a third straight 1-seed, though this time they will hope to take it all the way to the NBA Finals (and then win it, maybe?). Nobbers, Heine, Sonius and altodevil arespurring encouraging on the Spurs to take up the chase. Ultimately 1-seed or 2-seed doesn't matter if you're probably making the Conference Final anyway, but it would taste good, I'm sure.
Unlike the East, there is a very clear divide between playoff and non-playoff teams in the West - at least so far. sontodevil and weetee's Grizzlies and Warriors may "only" be 6th and 7th, but they're clearly better than the teams below the line. The same can be said for the Nuggets, but P-Nut and BenitwoSTARRLET can't take a break quite yet.
At the bottom we have three Caf-teams with 9 wins. It's not quite over as far as playoffs go, but it's close. Solius and Dan II may not have expected more from the Pelicans and the Lakers, respectively, but I am sure Salt Bailly and his son Pepper Bailly hoped for more. They ended last season 41-41, barely missing the playoffs, but now they're below teams that finished with 13, 16 and 23 wins. Just ahead of those we have The Cub and Dr. Dwayne's Thunder. 12-19 might not seem like much, but they had 13 wins last season. The whole season.

Whoops I forgot Oklahoma (probably a common problem). Let me get right on that.
Edit: I also forgot about Skizzlet

I’m just enjoying my twilight down in New Orleans.
Putting up a casual 23/4/8 at 37 years old.
Wouldn't mind Golden State dropping to 8th if that'd mean a father-son duel in the play-offs.
Shows how much I was carrying Boston and these so-called good team mates.
shots been fired
Looking forward to another battle with Houston
Everything is fine.
@nimic since the experiment started: how often did the title go to the west? Think it was Chicago once or twice, Washington once and then Benito's NY crew and that's it, so like about 5times to the East and the rest to the West?
6 to the East. 76ers won one, as did the Nets with V.O.
So how's the tally in total? 16-6? Heavily one-sided, especially since it does look to stay that way for a while.
It's like 11-10?
Orlando, Toronto, Phily, Chicago, New Jersey, Washington all got 1. New York and Seattle got 2 each.
Seattle was West though. Didn't Benito brag about three rings? Likely made that up.
Completely forgot where Seattle is. So 13-8.
Is this correct @nimic? I don't trust hobbers.
Have you tried the OP
Oh yeah I forgot about Orlando.
Depending on «ownership» it should be some more for west in the next year.
Rockets really using alot of money on role players, and none expirint

2017 All Star Weekend - Update and All Star Game
2017 All Star Weekend Update and All Star Game
@BenitoSTARR @Dan @Dr. Dwayne @P-Nut @Salt Bailly @Skizzo @Solius @Stobzilla @The Cat @V.O. @altodevil @hobbers @oneniltothearsenal @reelworld @sebsheep @weetee @Heine
I split the all star update into two posts this time, for... reasons.
Standings
All Cafites being within 9 wins of each other is quite the new experience for the East. There are only 25-odd games left to play, but any one of you could conceivably drop out of or make the playoffs from here. It would be quite surprising if Two Nil and Dr. Junior didn't make it, after their good starts. Their recent form is less impressive, though. hobbers at least has a winning record since last time, so if that holds then he should make it.
SebJr was the biggest surprise of last update, but he's taken charge since then and slowly dragged Miami up the table. Can he keep it up and take them over the line? Skizzlet is trending the other way, unfortunately. Atlanta started well, but are now looking more and more likely to drop out. The same goes for Stobzilla II and BenitoSTARR in New York, except to an even greater extent. The Bucks have taken advantage of their collapse, and reelworld II is now is closer to the playoff than at any point after 2012 - when he last made it.
It's pretty clear that the West is now the significantly stronger conference. sontodevil on the Grizzlies and P-Nut and BenitwoSTARRLET on the Nuggets are just above the line here, while in the East they would be a single win behind the 2-seed. Of the two, sontodevil probably has the most to be worried about, as Dan II and Solius are both pushing their teams into pretty good form in a bid to make it above the line.
At the bottom it's a familiar story. The Cub and Dr. Dwayne couldn't maintain their "good" start, and Salt Bailly and Pepper Bailly never really got going. The silver lining is that both of their teams have their own picks.
At the top the Spurs Foursome (the Spursome) has taken a commanding lead, Lil V.O. and weeweetee are trying to keep up, but their very good form is not quite enough compared to the Spurs great form. weetee, on the other hand, is defying expectations by helping his Warriors up to 3rd. It's quite tight below, but 19-5 since last time and 8-2 in the last 10 is very good indeed. Western dark horse?

2017 All Star Weekend Slam Dunk and 3 Point Contest
@Solius @hobbers @Skizzo @P-Nut @reelworld @sebsheep @BenitoSTARR @Dan @weetee
Slam Dunk Contest
Three Cafites? It's spoiler time!
There are 2 Rounds, with two players advancing from Round 1. Everyone has two dunks per round, with three attempts to make it each dunk. Maximum of 50 points per dunk.
3 Point Contest
It's a first: every single player is a Cafite! Solius is back to show the kids (and P-Nut) how it's done. He's as old as weeweetee and BenitwoSTARRLET combined.
There are so many of you that the stacked spoilers are probably going to make it hell to read on mobile. I could just not do the stacked spoilers, or not do the screenshots, but compromise is for the weak. You just better hope there won't be any tiebreaks...!
1st Round - 4 advance
SebJr is out.
Nobbers is out.
It's going to be reelworld II, BenitwoSTARRLET, Dan II and Solius in the 2nd Round! A very high-scoring 1st Round indeed.
2nd Round - 2 advance
Final Round
We have a new winner! reelworld II was presumably tired from shooting 100 three pointers before the final round, so Dan II got the better of him!

Skizzlet: 32 (total 65)
Of course there's a draw when you guys are involved. Time for one more dunk to decide if Nobbers or Skizzlet get to go against Kevin Durant!

I clicked next too soon, but Solius shot 25
Tiebreak it is, between reelworld II, Solius and BenitwoSTARRLET. Never mind the All Star Update - if we have too many of these I literally can't fit the 3 Point Contest itself in a single post.
29 is great, so long as reelworld II doesn't shoot 29 as well!
Motherfecker. This is going to be completely unreadable on mobile, and it's all your fault.
If reelworld shoots 24 and puts us in another tiebreak, I am deleting him.

reelworld: 27 <- Yes I removed the picture to get within the 20 picture limit.
Oh thank god. It's reelworld II vs Dan II in the Final Round.

Wait how the feck do you score 0/50 after getting 50 the first time?
HowWhy is a turd who only played 17 minutes getting mvp.
Also, I gave Nobbers 36 on dunks to start off with. Suck on that Durant.
All star team, "competing" in the 3 point competition.
Could never have dreamed this for the kid.
Could never have dreamed this for the kid.
Seeing those pics next to each other makes you wonder if Hobbers and BenitoStarr had a romantic encounter which resulted in BenitwoStarlett.
It looks fishy indeed, maybe BenitwoStarlett aint the first lady in the game?
It's obvious that Benitwo is using greenface and should be cancelled.
BenitoTwo also looks like they've lied about their age. Dan hahaha
