All-Star Weekend is upon us, meaning we've reached the de facto halfway point in the 2016-17 NBA season. Instagram has pulled data on the most popular posts of this season's first half. Much like on the court, Curry and James dominate the league online.

RIP friend!!! Great to have work with you, known you and watch you for all these years. My blessing to your family and many prayers sent to the heavens above! #SagerStrong🙏
The basketball world collectively mourned the loss of Craig Sager, a legendary, beloved NBA broadcaster who died in December after battling leukemia. He'll be remembered for his kindness, professionalism and, of course, his wild suits.
His death cast a somber shadow on this season's early weeks.
Smiles all around. Just Making sure I capture the moment right. 😁
Again, Curry's universal fame makes him a mainstay of this list. Fans love Steph, his wife Ayesha Curry, and his two daughters. But more on that later.

Steph has undoubtedly eclipsed his younger brother Seth in both talent and popularity, but the two are obviously still close, and the world can't get enough of anything to do with Steph's family.
Man to be 95 years of age and still being able to do this!!! RJ tell me where that fountain is brother. #IPromise I can keep a secret. Haha! Wowzers!!
NBA veteran and Cavaliers forward Richard Jefferson posterized the Warriors' Klay Thompson with this epic dunk on Christmas Day. Jefferson is 36, despite LeBron James' joke in his Instagram caption. Nonetheless, it was an impressive display of athleticism from a pretty senior player.

That game marked the first meeting between Cleveland and Golden State since last year's NBA Finals. Many are anticipating a rematch between the two teams, considering they've both led their respective conferences for most of the year.
There's just not enough words I can put together to express the feelings I had when I received this last night! Emotions was running heavy and I'm just so proud of my teammates, their joy and happiness receiving theirs as well! It was a SPECIAL night to say the lease and I'll never forget that moment for the rest of my life. Final thing THANK YOU and you're extremely welcome to our UNBELIEVABLE fans for sharing that moment with us because honestly we did it for yall! #StriveForGreatness🚀 #RWTW🏅 #TheKidFromAkron👑 #TheLand🔥
Speaking of the NBA Finals, Cleveland won its first ever last June, with LeBron James fulfilling a promise he made to his hometown when he returned to the Cavaliers in 2014. It took a couple seasons, but LeBron finally got that coveted ring.
And he won it by beating Steph Curry's Warriors.
Merry Christmas y'all. Enjoy your family time and Don't forget the reason for the season! 🙏🏽
Here it is. The top post of the first half. It has absolutely nothing to do with basketball, and everything to do with a beautiful family that has taken the NBA by storm.
The NBA belongs to Curry and James. Everyone else is just playing in it.
