Who would've thought it will be BAAAMMM!  Grin
Man, they were all good at that skills challenge but he did really shine making those 3 points shots in just 1 or 2 attempts.

Bam you BAAM!  Grin
Trophy goes for his Mom.
Why do players always win it when their goal is for their Mommy?  Wink
I did! Smiley I guess nobody else thought he would of too since the odds were so juicy at 12.00x. Grin

I just liked the way he moves on the court and he wasnt expected to win in his first appearance in this years skills competition.

Tonight is night of Contests in All Star Weekend. Personally I don't like new rules of 3 Point contest with new shot zones added and time extended to 70 seconds. I just don't understand why they need to fix things which aren't broken... I would love to see contest with classic rules - 25 balls in 60 seconds.

I've got Shai Gilgeous-Alexander or Spencer Dinwiddie to win the Skills Challenge with odds over 4.00, three of the last 4 winners are forwards, time guards take one back, Dinwiddie won in 2018 by the way.

In the 3-Point Contest, i went with Duncan Robinson and Devin Booker (2018 winner) with odds over 4.00 again.
T. Young could be a dark horse here as the competition is slightly changed this year. There are two additional deep balls each giving 3 points. Young likes to shoot from the logo so it could be a huge plus/advantage for him.

As for the Slam Dunk contest i haven't made my mind yet. It's either Gordon or Derrick Jones Jr imo.

Anyone else betting one these^?

Spencer Dinwiddie didn't get a chance to defend his 2018 title because of an injury, he's got a chance to win it again ? I went with Khris Middleton for that category.

I went with Trae Young for the 3 points contest and I've got Gordon for the slam dunk, If you go otherwise for the slam dunk that means we are going against each other in all categories  Sad

From the above post, I think I should of had the skills competition winner instead of the all-star mvp selection for this one. Undecided
Lol, without reading this post, I just voiced the same opinion in the thread.  Smiley
Yeah. Good minds think alike! Wink
I think I can still select the winner of the skills competition and post it on the thread since I wont be entering in my own contest. Cheesy

Who bet on Miles Bridges to win the MVP? I miss looking at the odds as I was not betting on this game, but made some search on the its odds and I was surprise that the odds was +1500, so guys are sure so lucky if you ever guess that right.

so basically this is line TEAM LUKA vs TEAM TRAE. which team do you like here?

source : https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2875862-nba-rising-stars-challenge-2020-rosters-snubs-predictions-for-usa-vs-world

I am with Luka in this.  Grin

I really though RJ Barrett was born in USA. So he is from Canada.  Cheesy
First time I dig for that kid about his background but I do followed him in college.
He is one of the great guys in Duke but it is just that Zion was also in the same team.
But I still have the high hopes for him. Somewhere in maybe 2 to 3 years he will bloom and his name will be popular to everyone.

Then there is Brandon Clarke which is also Canadian.



RJ Barrett was the Canadian highschool player of the year when he came out of high school and into duke.  He was mocked as the #1 pick by everyone prior to the college season.  Zion was supposed to be good but no one thought he was going to be that good.  That all changed in the preseason Hawaii tourney where he wrecked everyone.  That's when the legend of zion started.  If RJ went to any other college he would be just as well known he was just always second fiddle news to zion though

Yeah, I never knew that. It was just the Duke time where I saw that kid. He was really amazing.
Who knows? Maybe someday he will get that number 1 spot in NBA. That will be more awesome than being the number 1 draft pick.

He does have the figure of being a star. Tall, average body which makes him not much prone to injuries unlike Zion's built.
The kid just needs some upgrades with his shooting skills and also with ball handling.
Well, practice could make him better. It will be a different training now with NBA.

Who do you got Team USA or Team World?

I placed a small bet on Team USA to win, took the moneyline but really should have gone with the spread instead, roster is just too stacked imo.
I have Trae or Ja winning the MVP even though Zion if favored by the bookies.


Congratulations. You won!!!

That was a hell of a fun game. Lot of laughter at the first half and specially that Luka Doncic buzzer beater at the half court.
Trae using his signature ball handling skills and then Ja Morant and Zion's dunks. It was awesome.

It could have been a big roar from the audience if Ja had caught that ball when he tries to block RJ. Damn high flying Ja.

My bet for today is U 234.5 on OKC v Pelicans

Obviously lost my bet yesterday but in my defense, OKC was on a 17 game streak (away from home) with total points under 235, last game they had over was November 28th almost three months ago, lol i'm such a party pooper Cheesy

Looks like the Boston is still playing well without Brown, I watched the first half and they had a very good ball movement, I am expecting a good run in the 2nd half for them, like I said, I think they'll win with a good margin.
This game turns out a good and a competitive game, it went into double OT but the good thing is that you won your pick, so congratulations, you are officially in a 4 winning streak now.
That's amazing having 4 straight now and with how the game ended with 2 over time it's showed how competitive both teams are and how they
wanted to win against each other. Tatum and Smart really played at their best to help winning this game.

My pick : Boston -1.5

Looking forward for the new pick, you did nail it that the Sixers was really strong at home, I love to follow your next pick.

Like I said, I was really looking forward and I followed your pick, I won my bet in sports betting and I also won in our competition in our local thread.

Crap! I did the bet against you for this one time and I lose.  Grin
You are really good.
Imagine making the right prediction even without one of their star around. Awesome!
Thanks mate, let's just say I am just lucky.


Wait? Team Giannis @ 2.65? Why?
Are the players already selected?

This is just great.
https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2875967-team-lebron-giannis-2020-nba-all-star-jerseys-to-honor-kobe-gianna-stern

Missing Kobe.

As expected Team Lebron is the favorites in this match up. they are 5-point favorite against Team Giannis.

you can see the line up here. https://www.nba.com/article/2020/02/06/lebron-giannis-draft-rosters-2020-all-star-game-official-release



No picks tomorrow and until the all star is over, I also want to take a rest like the players who are not in all star.

Let's just enjoy the all star weekend guys.

This game turns out a good and a competitive game, it went into double OT but the good thing is that you won your pick, so congratulations, you are officially in a 4 winning streak now.

Wow congratulations.

What is happening? Powerhouse teams are losing. Without Jaylen Brown? I mean, that is the Clippers team.
I know both is in the 3rd seed but that is the West 3rd seed.
I guess it is really difficult to predict winning teams right now even with handicaps.

Teams will get a good rest now. Then all star, games will be back to normal at February 21.


What's happening is the right thing to happen, the Clipper have upgraded their line up with Morris added in the line up but the Boston will not allow to just easily lose at home, they fought hard enough to get this win and they were able to get this in 2 OT. Take not that Paul George was out with the Clippers so it's not good for them like Brown being out for the Celtics.
