The NBA All-Star Weekend Thread

The Rookie/Sophmore game is just ridiculously lopsided. The Sophs can put Kirk Hinrich, Dwyane Wade, Lebron James, Carmello Anthony and Chris Bosh out there as their starting line up with Luke Ridnour, and Kyle Korver and a few other solid guys backing them up. That just ain't fair. The rookies are gonna be without Okafor, so I'd assume they'd go with Ben Gordon, Tony Allen, Luol Deng, Igoudala/Smith and Dwight Howard as their starting line up. Final score will be Rookies 115 - Sophomore's 139 or some unGodly number.

 

Gimme Phoenix in the Shooting Stars challenge, they get Taurasi, Marion and Majerle and they have the hardest last names to spell, so they win.

 

Boykins on the Skills challenge. He'll have an easier time hitting the bounce pass into the basket I'd say.

 

Kyle Korver all the way on the 3 point shootout.

 

I dunno who to go with on the dunk contest, all of those guys are more "throw it down over the top of someone" than midflight creativity. I think Jason Richardson pushed the difficulty level as far as it can go too, so I'm not much into it. Give me Josh Smith though.

LeBron won't play on the Sophomore team IMO. I think it'll be closer than people are predicting, but if Okafor sits out then maybe not....

 

- LA (but Phoenix will be tough, it's really a toss up...)

 

- Korver

 

- Ridnour

 

- Josh Smith

I guarantee victory for Arenas in the Skills challenge.

 

 

Lebron will be MVP of the All-Star game, this will be basically a showcase of his passing skills.

 

Give me Korver for the 3-point contest.

 

Josh Smith will take the Dunk Contest easy.

Boykins taking that shit yo.

 

Dunk Contest...who the fuck knows. i don't care. The greatest dunker of all time isn't there so I could give two shits.

 

I will take Korver for the 3 point contest too.

So far, all the FG attempts that aren't slam dunks have missed badly tonight. Still a couple of cool dunks though. (curses NBA for no Okafor playing) damn injuries...

The Celebrity Game needs to use the MTV rules and gimmicks to make it entertaining.

If there was one thing MTV did well, it was the Rock N' Jock games. The softball and basketball ones especially (I never really liked the football ones).

 

I mean these aren't highly trained athletes and this isn't serious, so jazz it up a bit.

Yeah, he did a couple years ago, too. I guess because of being out partying so much, at least according to Kenny Smith.
