NBA All-Star Weekend

Yo!My name is Seth Strong and I'll be talking about the all-star weekend that happened last week.On Friday,February 18 The Rookie Challenge occurred.The rookies won that event ,they did last year too.John Wall won the MVP award for that game.The next day,Saturday,alot of events went on.First,was the Haier Shooting Stars event ,which Team Atlanta won.Then was the Skills Challenge,which Stephen Curry of the Golden State warriors won.Stephen Curry known first his 3-point shot still was able to prevail over Russel Westbrook in the final round.The 3-Point Shoot-out was next.Many people expected Ray Allen to win this contest but he didn't ,he finished last in the final round.James Jones of the Miami Heat won that event.Finally,the Sprite Slam Dunk Contest happened.To me it was the most exciting one in a while.Demar DeRozan,Serge Ibaka,Javale McGee,and Blake Griffin competed in this event.Serge Ibaka in my opinion got robbed he took off from behind the free throw line,that has never been done people have taken off from on the free throw line,and didn't make the final round.Blake Griffin,the one I expected to win,jumped over a car and won it.On Sunday,The 60th All-Star Game took place.In the fourth quarter the East started to make a comeback after being down the whole game ,but eventually lost,tragic.Kobe Bryant won the MVP honors.The All-Star Weekend was over and it was a good one
