US Airways Center

Starters/Reserves​

Mike Brown game notes:​

• Play KG for 48 minutes and don't let him get a sip of Gatorade or water.​

• Run pick and pops for Mo and Bron the whole game.

• Don't lose your mind from the lack of defense.

obviously AI doesn't fit there, and shouldn't be there.

also, we have tons of size on the east compared to the west!

 

[Zog]

I didn't realize how many bigs the West has... they have 6 guys who are either 7 footers or have played a decent amount of center in the past.

 

[wuck]

Hopefully, Joey Crawford is one of the refs, so both Mike Brown and Tim Duncan can go off on him from both ends of the court.

3 peat is impossible, he didn't have a repeat, he just has two MVPs. It'd be great to see him win MVp though since he prolly get plenty of time at the 4 with no real bench bigs.

 

[KU_216]

East wins big.

Haha... well I don't think they would complain too much about foul calls, because there usually aren't many... but they could still bitch at him just for the hell of it.

 

[Damien O'Connel]

i wanna see mo get mvp. that would be amazing.

picks for the comptitions and the game:

rookie sophomore: rooks
Skills: Mo
3pt: kapono
Dunk: JR smith

East over West 131-125

 

[-KingofKings23-]

That would be cool seeing Mo get the MVP although I doubt it unless he is light's out from the floor just like the game verse the Suns.

The West might have alot of big guys but we have smaller faster guys that can blow past their big's. Besides this game is about tempo. The ball will go up and down the floor really fast so I think the West is at a disadvantage.

 

[Corey]

Magic number can...

Oh, wait.

 

[Karma]

The East have no bigs on the bench. Sorry Lewis is not a big. I think the West will win this one.

 

[Da_James_Gang]

I still think the East pulls this one out. They easily have the better shooters and can spread the floor. While still having some guys capable of getting to the basket at will. We will see how early both teams start playing defense though. I have a feeling we could see the east clamp down a little sooner with MB on the bench lol.

 

[Gimme Some Mo]

The only lock of this weekend is Jason Kapono winning the 3 point contest.

Sometimes I wish he was still here just to see him can them over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.

 

[Mr2400]

I can't be the only one who wants to see the dunk contest more than anything else. I loved J.R smith in the dunk contest a few years back when he took 3rd. that behind the back dunk was insane for someone his size. The skills challenge is interesting, mostly because i want to see Mo win it. Then the 3-point shoot out will be neat. I hope Kapono gets knocked off this year. I hate him winning it all the time. The game is the part i look forward to the least, actually.

 

[mdawg1128]

Yes I for one cant wait for the dunk contest, im not to excited seeing nate robinson win it again but i do have a feeling jr smith is gonna win it.

Should be a good weekend.
