All-Star Weekend Results

On Saturday Night of the NBA All-Star Weekend, the Detroit team started it off by taking the shooting stars competition. The shooting stars competition was followed by the skills challenge. Derek Rose did extremely well, and finished it off by bringing the ball low and dunking it behind his back. Next was the three point shoot out. The last three contestents in it were Daiquan Cook, Jason Kapono, and Rashard Lewis. Cook won it, and it did not even seem one bit challenging for him. The last contest of the night was the Dunk Competiton. This is always my favorite competition of them all. Many alley-oops were thrown up in the first round, but the last two contestant left were five foot nine Nate Robinson and six foot nine Dwight Howard. Dwight was great, but Nate took it by jumping over Howard. I was amazed by this. The weekend finished off with the west destroying the east.
