I dont really like the defending Slam Dunk Champion (smith). On the East, I think they should maybe put on Gilbert Arenas or Paul Pierce instead of Wade. And I'm surprised to see that Garnett isn't starting on the west :O:O:O

Did you see last year, the fella from NO did a behind the back dunk?:O

I had never seen that before. Unfortunately, he did that first and then fizzled the rest of his dunks.

thnx for the information. I will watch it

warrick better win the dunk

Yeah he's nice.

Big man with a jumper and serious defense.
However, the German, Dirk Nowitzki has the best jumper of all the big men. Unstoppable on offense. Shit on defense.

Notice 4 Detroit starters are on the All-Star Team as they should be. They are a machine.

3 of those players were Wizards. :dry:

:lol: I know what you mean. If Toronto kept, damen stoudamire, tracy mcgrady and vince carter, we would be the best.

Watching the Celebrity Game now. (I normally don't :unsure: )

They use a running clock. :lol:

I foresee a low scoring game.

edit: Eva Longoria has such a beautiful face.

edit: I just couldn't watch all of that sloppy shit.

Ice Cube, Donald Fasion, Kevin Frazier, and Nelly were very good.

Superman was total shit.

I will watch all of the Rookie Game.

Bah, I wish I had somewhere to watch this.

Sophomores beat the rookies 106 - 96

Andre Iguodala wins the MVP.

Well deserved. He made a ton of amazing dunks, shot the 3 ball well, and was the leading scorer with 30 points and 4 steals.

This is the guy also in the Slam Dunk competition today.

It's kinda tight that INHD (I don't have The League Pass) shows the All-Star practices and stuff.

Flip Saunders says he's going to put all of his Pistons players (4 of em) on the floor at the same time.

Dirk Nowitzki won the 3-point competition but shouldn't even have advance to second round 'cause the horn sounded in the 1st round on his last shot and the ball was still in his hand.

They don't do replays.:dry:

Is there a torrent for this??
I missed the live and replay in my area........

I missed it too :mellow:

Let have a look... I missed it last year and don't wanna miss is this year. Thanks for this!
