Omri Casspi will be in TNT's three-man field for the NBA H.O.R.S.E. content on All-Star Saturday. He'll face reigning champ Kevin Durant and Celtics beast Rajon Rondo. Casspi's also in the Rookie-Sophomore game Friday. Tyreke Evans has a spot on Sacramento's Shooting Stars contest on Saturday night.

Cool stuff. It should be pretty easy to be Rondo if you're behind him. Just make outside jumpers. :lol:

Edit: Never mind. I read the other thread and remember now.

And I forgot--what's the shooting stars contest again?

The Rooks are taking over all-star weekend... I love it..

That being said, I expect Durant to repeat.

I missed the horse competition last year. I hope to see it this year. Is it on friday night or saturday night?

I'm wondering the same thing. I missed it too. Is it any good?

Friday I think.

Durant will easily win again.

It was entertaining, until Durant realized he couldn't do any trick shots, but also realized that he can simply shoot the ball 90 feet and still make it. Mayo and Joe Johnson had no chance

We go from having nothing to do with allstar weekend to being all over the place. I love it this draft has made us get national and global spotlight.
