Nice man, give me some inside info on bets. Cade has to be able to win the 3pt I think, the betting doesn’t.

Nice always been a bucket list item for me to go to some of the festivities during the asb. Are you going to anything else? I know the bay has made it pretty expensive this year

Got to see it because I went w a Warriors season ticket holder. :D

Nothing that I saw was worth betting on, but I was watching who Cade was chatting with, dreaming up future teammates.

And one final note, when Wemby came out, he is just crazy tall. Significantly taller even when standing next to Jokic.

Going skiing the rest of the weekend. And it didn’t cost anything because I went w a Warrior’s season ticket holder :D

But I probably should have gone to the rising stars game or the slam dunk show tonight since I’m within driving distance. Oh well, some other year.

The league asked him to be there, for maximum exposure. Cade is an American born NBA player, currently showing out. (This is not speculation. Beasley eluded to it even)

Expect a big marketing push really soon, and for the Pistons to get a few extra national games. Mark my words.

Pistons truly got one.

I made a small bet that Cade will win and also a bet that he'll make it to the final.
Hope he has some success here it would be great for us/him
Let's Go Cade!

Did I miss the explanation why Beasley didn't participate in the 3 point shot? I figured it was because Cade was in the game, until Buddy came up.

Beasley is second in the league in made threes and shooting 42 percent from beyond the arc.

If this was actually about having the best shooters competing he’d have been picked.

I haven’t watched any of these silly events in years now.

He said they asked him but they first allow any all-stars that want to participate and then any players that they ask from the hosting team (Buddy Hield).... If one or two more all-stars declined then Beasley would have likely gotten an invite to shoot.

There should be a 3 on 3 knockout tournament put on, with every team represented. And a 3-point competition that also has all teams present.

Cade should be starting over Brunson. This kind of game isn't ideal for him.
