All Star HORSE Game 

Post#1 » by Sejanus » Wed Feb 4, 2009 3:16 am

I saw on another board that TNT is adding a HORSE game to All Star weekend, the participants yet to be decided. I post this here because it screams for Kevin Love's involvement! It would be great to see him there even though he was robbed of being in the rookie sophomore game.

I won't get my hopes up. I just know Love will get robbed again!

Imagine the exposure Love will get though if he participates in this event.. Everyone would be watching it because it's the a new event.

Why not?


Kevin Love to HORSE is what Vince Carter is to the dunk contest.

It would just be fun to see him try to do something an athletic guard does in the contest

Seriously HOURSE? When I saw the title of the thread at first I thought that it was a joke but as it was loading I was thinking that would be entertaining. If Love was in it that would be sweet but I would watch either way. Who wouldn't want to see the best of the best playing the game that many of us grew up playing.

Man it just gets better. I for one am a big fan of all-star weekend and I'm happy to see they are adding another event. Get Love in there!!! Any former Globetrotter NBA player would probably kill this.

The fact that this idea suddenly appeared after Kevin Love was not selected for the All Star Game leads me to think that it was put in specifically for him. Perhaps they thought that they could cash in on you-tubers.

The NBA is a business after all. If you can make money do it. If you could invite K-Love you have to make us MN fans happy after getting forgotten!

On the ESPN Daily Dime video today (@ about 40 seconds from the end) they say that Ben Gordon, Dwayne Wade, Dirk Nowitski, and Kevin Garnett will be the contestants. Lame.

Move Gordon or Nowitski to the 3 point contest and insert K Love, dummies!

Dwayne Wade??? come on... unless they allow dunking he has no creativity. shooting midrange J's all day won't cut it. and please Dirk and KG aren't creative either...
