Damn....just as I felt Gallo got tired quick. The big guys just can't do well in this contest.

Oh well.


Meanwhile. Barkley giving HUGE props to the Knicks all-star representatives!

Reggie dissing Spike Lee after Gallo's shootout what a classless slimebag
TKF on Melo ::....he is a punk, a jerk, a self absorbed out of shape, self aggrandizing, unprofessional, volume chucking coach killing playoff loser!!

Well...

Nice showing for Gallo. Curry is a shooter, don't think anyone ever questioned that.

Gallo had the built in hurt arm excuse or maybe we need to tone down on the guy some.

Dirk... and Bird winning are rare in this contest. That's just a testament to how amazing they are.

You could see Gallo and then Frye tiring out as they got deeper into the contest. Takes a lot of energy for the big guys to jack 30 shots in 60 seconds you know?

It's a guard dominated contest.


Still good to see Gallo in the contest regardless.

It's been one of the better competitions in recent memory.

Man, Pierce has improved his 3 point shot by a lot.

Excuses? What in the hell are you talking about.... I said well before the contest I thought Gallo and Frye would bomb in this competition so know what you're talking about before you call me out on something.

I'm not making any freakin excuses for Gallo. I'm making a statement that big men traditionally DONT do well in these competitions.

Give me a freakin break and don't put words in my mouth.

Jamie looks like he still playing in that Soloist movie. He is on his way to being 'special'

Bring the Thunder!!

Not many big men compete in this competition in comparison to the overall field. Big men usually aren't good shooters and don't get invited but if they do they have as good a chance as anyone else and have done very well

Other shooters with size who performed well in the competition

Dale Ellis
Rashard Lewis
Detlef


3pt Shootout History


Point is why bring up size of players in this competition when it has proven to not have any bearing at all?

Jennings looked like he was way past this type of game and will be stepping up to the real all-star game in the next year or so. He pretty much did whatever he wanted to. I think he got overlooked: 22 points, 8 assists, 6 rebounds, 4 steals!!

oohah


Personally I think jennings was on the right stage and has a long way to go for the all-star team. Great skills, great potential. Trigger-happy. Forces passes. Needs a lot of growth and seasoning to be running an nba team to its potential. But love his presence and demeanor and energy on the court.

Jennings/Bobby Brown was definitely on the right stage this year. Maybe he belongs there next year. He shoots some bad shots. But he was clearly ahead of most of the guys out there. The kid is skinny but he has heart like you allude to. He improves his weaknesses a little and this kid is a legit all-star.

All Jennings has to do is get his jumper consistent. Also what might help is if a team can't gear their entire defense to stopping him as is happening this year due to the absence of Michael Redd or any other legitimate creative offensive players.

Since you like the first pic, here is another for you!:

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

So far this is the worst dunk contest in recent memory.

AS weekend has BOMBED so far.

3pt shootout was one of the best I've seen in some time though. That's about it. :/

Pick it up fellas!

Okay, finally... something nice.

Nate's was nice too. The rest sucked so far.

So Nate and Derozan it will be. Okay, here we go.
