Since we got NBA talk going, here are my All-Star Awards:
1) Biggest Waste of Space: Tyson Chandler. He also barely nudges out Ben Wallace for Worst Shooting Touch.
2) Best Dunk: 1st: J-Rich (final dunk); 2nd: J-Rich (round 1 windmill); 3rd: J-Rich (rookie game 180 windmill).
3) Worst Dunk: MJ, yikes
4) Best Playground move: J-Rich, passing the ball to himself off of Boozer's head
5) Best Outfit: Mariah and her twins
6) Best Playing Time decision: Adelman, for basically benching Yao after he got the start
7) Worst Playing Time decision: Isiah, for burying Pierce and Walker on the bench. Can't wait for the next Pacers-Celtics game.
8) Best music: the little girl singing the national anthem on Saturday
9) Worst "music": Meatloaf. Did anyone else see that? What the hell was going on there? Did anyone lose their job over that booking?
SH(10) worst performance by a "superstar" Kobe missing TWO game-winning free throws. He shot 60% in the clutch. Yikes. And did you notice how stationary Shaq was? All these guys flying around, athletic-like and he was just an immovabe mountain.. (E: big Z was an immovable bench mountain)
E: Kobe sounded almost apologetic for having to shoot those three free throws, like he wanted to win but didn't want to win that way. I'm glad he only hit two.
Don't you hate it when you hit your head on the rim? [SL: only thing worse is alleyooping a bounce pass to yourself, putting it through your legs back to front, dunking it left handed, then hitting your head on the rim. right after Sir Charles announces there are no dunks that have never been done before. - in an all-star related incident, some floor interview conducted with Peja after he won the 3 pt contest was hilarious. not sure if you caught it, but the interviewer makes some comment like, "wow, its a shame we didn't see this type of performance in game 7 of the Western Conference Finals". lol. what a cheap shot at a choke artitst! good one. :)]]
