Nice win, igor, that's what I call last entry luck, to hit it all on the head precisely!
No, no man, you got it wrong. Last entry win is not a result of luck it is a result of waiting for the last moment to be informed as much as possible to make that informed selection. If it was a sport I know something about I would never have made my picks before last games were even played. There was that injury and then sub for all star game. Of course I had no idea about any of that and still got 2nd / 3rd place, that is luck  Grin

Nice win, igor, that's what I call last entry luck, to hit it all on the head precisely! Also Trofo and ralle, sweet! Almost a complete opposite performance from me, totally missed all the picks I made, so that's one hell of a way to sweept 1st place (especially Sabonis at +700 not bad at all man).

I know I asked in SB thread but does anyone know where to get UCL outrights? Thinking of putting some equal money on Lazio, Barca and Juve to each find a way to qualify for QFs.

Congrats to Igoremr for predicting all three, man I was so close to hitting three as well but I went with my gut on LaVine.

I see @Trofo also got two predictions correctly does that mean we're both tied for second and third place ?  Grin
Yes you two are the second & third place winners of this competition respectively.
Congratulations and you can claim both your prizes of the freebets and the jerseys of your choice by just pm'ing steve with you usernames on the site.

This noticed goes for all who have participated and for the 2nd and 3rd prize winners of their freebets, you will need to contact steve by a pm with you username on Sportsbet.io so to claim your prize(s).

Thank you for all who participated and hope you all had as much fun as I did watching this All-Star weekend event for the NBA.

While checking my bets on the MMA last night I noticed with a little bit of searching there are markets available for the NBA All-star weekend skills competition on Sportsbet.io after all! Grin

https://sportsbet.io/sports/basketball/usa/nba-all-star-game/outrights

So those are the final line-ups to choose from.

Good luck everyone!

Hello everyone! Man I have no idea about basketball, I even signed up for TopShots (collectibles) but didn't participate because I had no idea if they were worth anything. Is Yao Ming really retired? I'm so old =p

Anyway. Trying to pick some peeps based on perceived name rarity. I'm going to win this, I can feel it.

1. Jayson Tatum
2. Obi Toppin
3. Nikola Vucevic

Damn guys this thread looks popping! If it's not too late, and I really hope it isn't here are my picks:

1. Mike Conley Jr. (Maybe I get lucky by picking the replacement right?)
2. Cassius Stanley  (apparently he already has one before according to google so another one who knows)
3. Chris Paul

1. Zach LaVine
2. Anfernee Simons
3. Domantas Sabonis

Looks like @ralle14 has been the only one to pick Booker.
Just watched him play last night and I was asking myself why didn't they rest him just like all the other teams did with those who were going to be in the all-star weekend events and the main game.
The New Orelans team did for Zion(benched) so it was kind of strange the Suns didn't do this for Booker as they were playing a Stephan Curry and Draymond Green less Golden state warriors team which looked like a g-league team with the players they had left to play. Undecided

So will allow ralle14 to make the change to his pick since it is more than 48 hours away.
But having this come up reminds me to put a vital rule up on here;
Posts done after the commencement of the skills challenge will be disqualified from entering in this challenge.

Phoenix’s Devin Booker has been replaced by Utah’s Mike Conley Jr. in the 2021 NBA All-Star Game on Sunday. Conley will also participate in the 3-point contest.

In case someone decides to pick Booker winning the 3-point contest, he is out and will miss the ASG due to a knee injury.

@rdbase : how do we determine the winner in case of tie? With only 3 options for this contest , I can see some of us tied at 3 or even 2 correct picks

I would say it will be determined upon the results being finalized on Monday.
Then we'll see at that point.
If there are ties then I am sure steve would accommodate the winners accordingly. Smiley
If there is a three way tie, then even more fun for those who get the freebets. Wink

3-point Contest - Stephen Curry
Slam Dunk Contest - Cassius Stanley
Skills Competition - Robert Covington



Im not sure which one would win the Slam Dunk and Skills competition but Stephen Curry would definitely nail the 3 point contest for sure. Alot of people will go for either Luka Donsic or Chris Paul but I'll go with Robert ( dont know why, just my hunch  Wink ) Best of luck everyone.

Seeing everybody on Luka Doncic to win the skills competition.
Yet he had missed his last game for the Mavs due to a back injury so he decided to rest and take the game off, so to get ready for the all-star weekend and play the main game.

I think there will be more slam dunk competitors added the closer we get to Sunday.

Looking good so far Sportsbet thread members. Wink
Keep posting your picks! Smiley
