2007 Skills Challenge

Skills Challenge Participants:Kobe Bryant (Los Angeles Lakers)LeBron James (Cleveland Cavaliers)Chris Paul (Oklahoma City Hornets)Dwyane Wade (Miami Heat)

 

Ray Felton would be nice also.This is already in the Cavs forum.I pick Kobe to win it. Just a hunch.

 

I pick Wade yet again. Kobe isn't quick enough or agile enough to beat Wade. I could see Nash possibly getting the nod, but Wade's my pick.

 

Damn they need some new people. Chris Paul maybe if he follows track and returns next week.

 

Yeah, I see Nash winning this but I want James too, if not James, then Kobe or Wade.I just don't like Nash....lol

 

NO BEN WALLACE? :no3:

 

Captain, you forget you have to make a shot from the free throw line AND make a lay-up. The theme of the all-star weekend seems to always be "Same Old, Same Old"

I think that it has to be Nash this year. He is an amazing shooter, an amazing passer, and an amazing dribbler. He is the perfect player for this event. Although the other players are pretty good at all of the above as well, Nash is the most rounded.EDIT: Dang, I didnt know that you only had to make a layup and a free throw. Whatever, I still go with Nash.

 

Man some old people like usual Steve Nash and Lebron James and Nash is probabaly going to win since he is the best passer and he probably has the best shot too. Next year they need to consider getting 4 totally different people in there I think the fans would like that more then seeing the same guys every year.

 

I think it sounds good, personally. Outta be interesting.

 

I would of liked to see Tj Ford and Chris Paul in it as well.

 

Typical Stars. They should leave these guys for the All-Star game. Let lower card guys get in there...Chris Paul, Ray Felt, ect

 

these are all the same people. I really dont like the skills challenge, I mean this will be like the 3rd year in a row nash is in it. at least its not as boring as the shooting stars game w/e it is.

 

I don't think Nash will win since he really doesn't want to be there....didn't he lose last year? I don't exactly remember but I think I read something that said he won in '04 and lost last year....so why would he be doing this if he asked not to?

Same old, same old. Why? Why bring back LeBron too? And Nash, who said he really doesn't want to do any side events during All-Star weekend. I'm glad Kobe is in it, something new, but come on. Get new guys in there. Personally, I wanted Deron Williams and Monta Ellis in it.</div>Lebron also did not wanna do side events I thought hmm. I agree about Deron Williams I thought he should be in it.

 

I would like to see Iverson do one of these, he should be good at this stuff.

 

Im voting for Nash. He's he quickest out of these 4 guys.

 

Kobe, in a heartbreaker. lol..
