TNT commentator Kenny "The Jet" Smith wears the custom-made Beats By Dre headphones produced by the Portland Trail Blazers in support of forward LaMarcus Aldridge's All-Star candidacy on Inside The NBA on Thursday night.
TNT's Charles Barkley strongly endorsed Aldridge: "LaMarcus Aldridge, you are going to make the All-Star team this year. If you don't I'm not going back down there... I'm taking a stand. I'm not going to Orlando unless LaMarcus Aldridge is going as a reserve."

love and la will both make it as they should
millsap is set to be snubbed if pau gets picked, 3 All Stars for a struggling Lakers team would be interesting.
i keep dancing on my own.
thanks Sir Charles!
this was one of his better sketches on SNL.
also, thats why teams send out product. cool that Kenny is wearing them on air.

I wanted to enjoy Charles on SNL
But God, he was terrible.
I still believe in Greg Oden. The Blazers' medical staff? Not so much.
I'd change my handle to "bringback'09," but I'm too lazy.
Dammit Chuck
now he isn’t going to get in the game cause no one wants to see you in Orlando.

Tim Duncan averaged 13 and 9 last year
"What began as a credible protest against bank bailouts, crony capitalism and the like has, in large measure, been hijacked by crazies and criminals,"
neither should be making all star teams
PHILLY!

Good marketing by the Blazers
The headphones were a good choice. Got onto national TV.

The Brandon Roy Leatherman Tool was good too
It created a national buzz when they sent those out as part of the Rookie of the Year campaign.

If LA doesn’t make it this year, it would be a far worse snub than last year. It would be an absolute shame. It would also shock me.
