The Schott looks pretty empty. Just got a text from a buddy that is there and he called it an embarrassment for the city of Columbus.

Can't really knock Sully's play so far. The East team cannot rebound without him in!

Melo the most impressive player so far.

I know the crowd looks sparce but I don't think that this is an event that is used to selling out.

Last year in Miami they sold 5,981 of 8,000 seats.
2008 was in Milwaukee - attendance was 10,914 in a 19,000 seat stadium.
2007 - 11,632 of 19,000 in Freedom Hall.

Man I agree w/ the announcer is ET comes back w/ the addition of Sully & DeShaun among others they could very well be the pre-season favorites for next year.... ONE MORE YEAR lol

East (Sully) leads West at the half 59-51

I can't wait to see Leslie in Lexington. Seems like Knight isn't getting much playing time.

I had no idea this was in Columbus until I saw this thread. I had class until now, so wouldn't have been able to go anyways though.

Who was hating on Sullinger??

No.

And I will get more shit for what I'm about to say than probably I have for anything ever.

Sully will be a flop. "

The kid from Liberty-Benton; Craft, will do much better before Sully finds out he has to work harder."
I remember vividly...

Haters!

Oh, I have no doubt that Sully is gonna ball at OSU. Kid has nice post moves, and can face up and hit the jumper! I admit, I didn't expect him to perform this well in this type of game!

Sullinger has a Charles Barkley butt. As a Buckeye fan, I hope he learns to use it as well as Barkley used his to create space and rebound the ball.

Sullinger with 22. Every time this kid has been put on the national stage, he has exceeded my expectations. I can't help but think he has big things coming to him at The Ohio State University.

Nice to see a Tar Heel get co-MVP with a Buckeye.

Harrison Barnes and Jared Sullinger

Should've been an offensive foul, not that I really care whether they called it or not.

Crazy how much this game has dropped off. McD's AA game was at its height when JWill, Jon Bender, then Lebron rolled through.

Without a serious name, this event suffers. There were prob less than 6K in there tonight.

They need to put it back in smaller venues.

That being said, if another dynamite player like Lebron or Melo rolls around, they can always put it in a bigger arena.
Didn't see much of the game, but what I saw was trash. Call me a hater, but I don't like watching this crap. Definitely some talent out there, but in that environment it is hard to come away with positives.
