I was just telling my brother it would be nice to have a Pelican in next year's game but no one will probably get enough minutes to even make it to All-Star status.

This the last game i expect to see a travel called
"I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

Sadly, because he's had two chances without winning, I don't think Ryno will be in the 3pt contest next year when it's in NOLA.

I think they usually invite the guys with the top 3pt fg% percentages and the most 3 pointers made so if he's anywhere near the top of that, chances are he'll get invited.
Honestly, I think if he is anywhere near the top of FG% or Made 3s he's invited just on merit. We'll need someone to play host. What's sad is the fact that we won't have anyone representing us in the for real All Star game most likely.

DAY IN THE LIFE: ROOKIE ANTHONY DAVIS AT NBA ALL-STAR WEEKEND

HANGING OUT WITH ANTHONY DAVIS DURING HIS BIG HOUSTON WEEKEND
More.It's the calm before the storm. Early Saturday afternoon in his room at the Hilton Americas-Houston, New Orleans forward-center Anthony Davis is enjoying a rare piece of private time in anticipation of a whirlwind day of NBA All-Star Weekend appearances and obligations.
Along with his father Anthony Sr., mother Erainer, older sister Iesha and twin sister Antoinette (Anthony is older by one minute and taller by at least a foot), the NCAA champion is simply lounging, taking in a brand new experience with the people who've been with him from the beginning. The people who make a point of attending Davis's milestone events. The people who are incredibly proud of this tremendous athlete's achievements.
Davis has already finished competing for the weekend. Friday night, as part of the BBVA Rising Stars Challenge, the rookie chipped in his two cents to help fuel “Team Chuck” to victory.
He created the squad's first bucket by lobbing an alley-oop pass to San Antonio Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard, and followed that dime with a three-pointer on the next possession. Ultimately, the show was stolen by Denver Nuggets forward (and game MVP) Kenneth Faried and Cleveland Cavaliers All-Star Kyrie Irving, but Davis's line (11 points, nine rebounds, one assist with two blocks) represents a credible showing.
The hotel room conversation shifts to dunks. Everyone expresses admiration for Usain Bolt's jam during the Celebrity All-Star Game, but also acknowledges the truth: “The Fastest Man Alive” traveled. Davis thinks the night's slam dunk contest is “gonna be crazy.” Anthony Sr. thinks Faried will add a second trophy to his collection for the weekend, but Davis's money is on Toronto Raptors guard Terrence Ross.
“Faried dunks so hard,” gushes Anthony Sr.
“T. Ross, he's like skilled with it,” insists Davis.
As it turned out, father doesn't always know best. Ross took home the hardware.
This is as tranquil and private a time as Anthony and his family will have before venturing into a public hopped up for glimpses of an NBA player. In the case of Davis, they'd be witnessing a potential superstar whom a franchise has banked on to become a cornerstone. Even as a rookie with much to prove and -- relative to, say, LeBron James -- little time in the public eye, the kid is plenty capable of creating a scene.
