NBA All Star Weekend


Another all-star weekend is upon us. The mood in the looker rooms seems to be tranquillo, as the two squads are getting ready, for yet another epic battle. Just ask the fans who witness the slam dunk contest last night, with the return of the slam dunk champion, Nate Robinson, who won it for the third time, or Steve Nash who entered the skills contest, and won yet another skills competition. Though it was exciting to watch, most of the attention is placed on the all-star game, as experts are predicting the dominance of Kobe Bryant and the western squad, and the size problems the front court persents for the eastern squad. The western squad seems to have the edge when it comes to the fire power department, but don't count out the east, as Dwayne Wade and LeBron James are playing the best ball of their careers. Despite the outcome of the game, the fans are looking to be mesmerized and captivated by the trick and innovated moves these players have up their sleeves. And hopefully we will witness someone being posturized on the instant replay. As the players bring out their tricks and arsenal for the public to see. I believe it will be a good game, and the east will come out on top. With the play of Dwayne Wade and LeBron James, and the season they are having, it’s hard to count them out.
