[HighLowLobForBig-50]

[T-Pain]

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

[picnroll]

Seeing the twin towers on the court again in uniform was a beautiful (sigh) sight.

[SequSpur]

David fuckin rocks.

[Ghost Writer]

That was awesome. I was a little concerned as to why they did not have Duncan on the first bank shot, but what a display!

I'm pumped!

[duncan228]

I crawled out of my sick bed to watch this.

Duncan from half court.
It was worth it.
Duncan and Robinson side by side...intense.

Champions rise to the occasion...no matter how much of an underdog they are.
Remember that.
Duncan will rise...and repeat.

[Dex]

We can't stop kicking Phoenix's ass.

[T Park]

The funny thing was that Robinson didn't chuck it up like every other competitor... he did a half hourt jumpshot...

Manu and Tony are great but there was/is nothing like it when TD and DRob were standing shoulder to shoulder on the court. Just one season of Manu, TD, Drob and Parker would be to die for.

[Joe Schmoogins]

yah, tim was two for three from the three point line... why isn't he shooting those in the game. Dirk aint got nothin on him.

[polandprzem]

It is.

Why are you watching?

Go to sleep.

It was hard for you to watch Tim Duncan there, he could get injured esp. doing half-court shot.

[Sonia_TX]

I honestly didn't think they would win before it started then when Dave kept missing his first shot I REALLY thought it was over.

Then in the second round when Chicago kept trying from half court we were yelling at the TV for them to miss. haha

Go Spurs Go!!

I miss DRob! :(

[dbreiden83080]

LOL, i can't believe they won with Timmy out there hucking up 3's and the Admiral hitting it from half court. BTW Becky Hammon is HOT.

I'm sure right after if he was asked that, for a quick second he would visualize himself holding up another trophy with TD... but then he'd come back to reality knowing that his knee is causing him some pain.

[bigfundamental21]

It was great to see D Rob on the court again. Even though he struggled to get that first bank shot, he made up for it with the half court shot in round one.

Then Timmy! Hitting threes and a half court shot in the second round to seal the victory! Definitely my highlight of the weekend.

[dbreiden83080]

Never thought timmy could hit a 3pt. shot in one try...but A win is a win - I'll take it.

That is what i thought when i saw what they were doing. I thought that Timmy would obviously be shooting the bank shot. D-Rob the mid-range jumper and Becky would shoot the 3. She is a good shooter. When i saw Tim out there for the 3, i said "Oh come on, he'll be out there all day trying to hit that" It was funny and cool to see them pull it off.

[spursjustice]

Did anyone notice how easy it was for Dave to shoot shots from midcourt? It was as though he was popping a normal jumpshot! None of that one steap and heave...

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I think people underrated timmy's 3 point ability. He can hit the 20 footer (without going glass) so a 3 wouldn't have been that hard for him.

Paul hits 4 half-court shots in a minute for Guinness record
By BRETT MARTEL, AP Sports Writer
February 16, 2008

NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- King James' reign as half-court shot champion of the world was a brief one.

Hometown favorite Chris Paul usurped LeBron James and Jason Kidd as the leader in the friendly competition after the Western Conference All-Stars finished a brief practice on Saturday afternoon.

The Eastern and Western conference All-Star squads each selected a handful of players to attempt as many half-court shots as they could in one minute. A moderator at the makeshift arena in the city's convention center pronounced that whoever made the most would hold the Guinness World Records mark for that timeframe.

James took jump shots from half court, hitting three. Jason Kidd also made three, all on underhanded heaves. Other shooters for the East included Ray Allen, who made two, and Joe Johnson, Dwyane Wade and Chauncey Billups, who each made one.

Wade looked exhausted toward the end of his minute and fell flat on his stomach on his last attempt.

"You'd think if you had 60 seconds in practice to make half-court you'd say, 'I'll make about 10,"' Wade said. "Man, it was rough making that one. I was happy to make one. It's a big difference. You've got the crowd, every shot they're 'ooh, aah."'

Added James: "It ain't the easiest thing to do."

About an hour later, when the West's practice wrapped up, Steve Nash, Amare Stoudamire, Tim Duncan, Allen Iverson and Paul shot from the center circle.

Nash and Stoudamire each made one, Iverson and Duncan came close but didn't make any. Then came Paul, who routinely throws up a handful of half-court shots after Hornets practices.

It showed. He made three in the first half minute to tie James and Kidd, then drained the last one a few seconds later for the record, delighting the partisan crowd.

[timvp]

Even though it was only a cheesy shooting competition, this was easily my favorite All-Star moment of all-time. Seeing Dave in a Spurs uniform again was awesome. Seeing him drain a jumper on his first try from halfcourt was even more awesome.

Tim and Dave looked genuinely happy to win. It just goes to show that you put that duo in a competition that doesn't even play to their strengths .... and they'll still win.

:smokin :smokin :smokin

[smeagol]

Is Drob really two to three inches higher than TD?

[ambchang]

One thing that really shocked me was how DRob was shooting those half court shots, he didn't have that run-two-steps-two-handed-throw shots, he had a legitimate jump shot from out there, and he seemed to be the only guy who was doing that.
Anyways, Spurs rules all, I never thought the Spurs would win with two centers in there.
