All Star Weekend

***Milan*** · -02-18-2006

Last night the Sophomores beat the Rookies in the beggining of the NBA all star weekend.

Tonight, I think it's going to have the 3pt contest, slam dunk contest, and skills competition, leading up to tommorow's all star game.

Andre Igoudala was the MVP of the Sophomore-Rookie game, tonight I'm hoping he wins the Dunk Competition.

I don't watch this stuff too much anymore, but I did catch the slam dunk competition and it was pretty impressive. Andre Iguodala's dunk from behind the backboard off the glass was not only physically awesome, but inovative and original. The best dunk I've ever seen in a competition, period. Almost as impressive was Nate Robinson's leap and jam over Spud Webb. Those little guys with hops are gravity defying magicians.

Too bad the competition was marred by judges looking at each other's cards before scoring, judges changing their minds after scoring and competitors having no limit on dunk chances, which really bogged things down and took away the normal excitement. Things need to change.
