Good for Jimmy getting involved, but he doesn't stand a chance lol

Well, thats kind of odd... has there ever been a non-PG to participate in that?

Yeah, it's a very odd choice but it shows that the NBA is trying to push him to the world wide audience and get him more recognition which is understandable. He is the type of player you want to showcase for not only as the player he has become, but also for the person that he is. Great job Jimmy.

His first match up is against Lowry.

I love Jimmy but when I saw this I thought to myself" Someone must've took to many puffs from the blunt." I would think Brooks should be there instead of Jimmy.

Wade, Lebron, Kobe, Oladipo, and Giannis.

Brooks would actually be legit competition. They should do a relay or something. Instead of just having one guy do it, they should pick like the five or six original guys like they do, and then those players pick two of their teammates to run the relay with them. Make it interesting by having to have at least one front court player in the race too.
