All Star Weekend Predictions

[Apollo]

I know, I know typically a general thread like this would go in the NBA forum but this is most certainly NOT a typical occurrence. Can you honestly believe it took this long for Toronto to have the privilege of hosting my favourite two nights on the regular season schedule?

Seeing how we're essentially seconds away from the most electrifying weekend in Toronto basketball history (sorry Vince), let's make it slightly more interesting. Let's all guess the outcome of the two key events of the weekend. This is a friendly competition, no money or humiliating avatars on the line.

Saturday night participants: http://global.nba.com/allstar/roster...night-rosters/

I'll kick it off:

Saturday Night
Skills: Isaiah Thomas
3-pt: Stephen Curry
Dunk: Will Barton

The All-Star Game: East by 10.

Edit: I'll merge this with the official All Star thread after the weekend.

[LJ2]

Skills: Isaiah Thomas
3 PT: Klay Thompson
Dunk: Lavine
All Star Game: West by 15

Oh crap! Barkley forgot his ball. Awkward.

[DanH]

I'm gonna make some out there picks.

Skills: Draymond Green
3-pt: Kyle Lowry
Dunk: Aaron Gordon

All Star Game: West by 20 points

[planetmars]

Skills: Cousins
3-pt: Redick
Dunk: LaVine

All Star Game: West by 8 (MVP = Kobe)

[Just Is]

Skills: Cousins
3-pt: Lowry
Dunk: Gordon

All Star Game: East by 10 points

TV broadcast: I'm going to want to punch Kenny Smith in the throat multiple times. More of a guarantee than a prediction. (and Reggie Miller of course though that goes without saying)



Edit:

Slam dunk: Someone will slather a basketball in cheese curds and gravy before dunking it and then they'll hand it to Charles Barkley.

Is the Raptors crew doing the game as well?

[WJF]

My allstar prediction is that MU lays the foundation for a a trade that will upgrade the 4 spot while still maintaining the NYK pick.

Oh ya,

Thomas
Curry
Gordon

[Raptor Jesus]

The Raptor Clowns DMC

Thomas
KLOE
Lavine

East, Lue has them playing defence for 30 more seconds (35 seconds total) than the west. So 210-203...

MU takes MVP
