2007 All Star Game

Another completely one sided finish (comparing it to Friday nights Rookie vs Sophomore challenge), the West set multiple records throughout the game, including most field goals attempted in a quarter (39 in the first), most assists in a game (52), and were 3 points shy of breaking the point total set in 2003 (155). Kobe Bryant played pretty good throughout the game scoring 31 points, and throwing down some sick dunks, but statistically I think Amare Stoudemire played just as well, in seven less minutes, he scored one more field goal with two less attempts than Bryant, four more rebounds, and three less turnovers. Although he struggled from time to time with guarding Dwight Howard down low, he was none the less impressive especially considering he just came back from injury at the beginning of this year.

Jumping Gerald Green

Pretty good slam dunk competition, kind of disappointing finish though, the best dunks (except maybe the windmill over the table) were all done in the first round. At least this year, the best dunker won (cough, unlike Iguodala getting robbed last year, cough), but none the less there was still plenty of favoring the little guy, or discriminating the tall guy. I mean Nate Robinson’s first dunk was awesome, definitely deserved that score, but his second one? Come on, your kidding me. And then Dwight Howard on his sticker dunk? Wtf was Jordan smoking, an 8? That was one of the best dunks of the competition, I mean he went up dunked the ball, and put a sticker of himself at the 12 and a half foot mark. That’s just sick.
