Friday Night= The Rookie/Sophomore Game
Im excited to watch the two point guards, both of which went to Memphis and left after their freshman year. Derrick Rose, who will be on the Sophomore team, and Tyreke Evans who will play for the Rookie team will be the key matchup on friday. The other matchup on friday that i have interest in is taking place at half time, as DeMar DeRozan and Eric Gordan square off in a battle to see who will continue to Saturday's dunk contest. The winner will join defending slam dunk champion Nate Robinson along with Gerald Wallace and Shannon Brown.
Saturday Night=H.O.R.S.E., Skills Competition, Team Shooting, 3-Point Contest, and the Slam Dunk contest
In my opinion this is the most exciting night of NBA All-Star weekend. The events are definite crowd pleasers as the stars come out to display their talents of shooting, passing, dribbling, and of course dunking.
Looking forward to see if Nate Robinson will win back to back dunk contests. I believe Shannon Brown is the best dunker in the contest this year, the only thing I worry about is if he has the creativity to win it all.
Sunday Night: The All-Star Game
"the main event" The stars align in Dallas. NBA's best play a game of offense and more offense. You think defense disappears in during a regular season game in the NBA, that is nothing compared to what goes on during the All Star game. The only disappointment I have is that Kobe Bryant, in my opinion the best player in the league will not be playing due to injuries. I am however very excited to see my boys Carmelo Anthony and Chauncey Billups teaming up and representing the Denver Nuggets.
What a weekend if you love NBA basketball.
I was disappointed with the dunk contest. Nobody did anything very exciting or new. Maybe next year!
