Skills Challenge

No thread on this one yet.

Kinda shocking to see Nash sucking that badly, especialy on his shot.

Even if he was on, though, he probably wasn't going to beat Wade.

I like the Skills Challenge, but would like to see them add some more stuff to it. Like maybe a bounce pass running at full speed.

The weirdest thing in that competition was that LeBron could barely dribble. :wtf

He carried and travelled with the ball.


Dwayne Wade was great in the final round.

His hands are so big it's equivalent to me bouncing a tennis ball and trying to go in-bewteen cones.

The skills challenge has to be the most boring event now.

Well it doesn't help that there's barely any crowd there during this competition. Last year in Denver it was like an empty arena during the Skills Challenge and Shooting Stars contest.

Yeah, I think the spacing between the cones has something to do with it.

The Skills Challenge is never going to be super-exiciting, but should always be a good change of pace.

Another interesting thing would be if they mixed in a couple of different kinds of shots you had to hit, i.e., hook shot, bank shot from the wing, etc.

Wade just has something about him. I knew he was going to pull something out. Figures he'd throw a perfect run. He's got that swagger that you don't see from anyone not named Kobe in the league.

Lebron was nervous as hell. He looked like he was running through quicksand. Don't blame the cone spacing entirely. I've seen him weave in and out much quicker than that. He just doesn't like being out there by himself with the pressure on. I can only imagine what would happen if he went into the dunk contest.

It was more like his hands were too big.

I felt bad for Paul. I guess it's rookie hazing to make them go first :lol

Skills Challenge, ranks up there with me as high as the 3 point shootout.

3 point shootout will always be my fave.


Chuck Person that one year totally blowing representing the Spurs was hilarious.

Somewhat, but I do think that it has alot of potential.

I can see them putting centers in there next year. (/sarcasm)
