Great roster but I would've liked to see nash instead of Wade...

Kidd wins. Paul 2nd choice.

Kidd does have a jumpshot, it's just not a good one, but it's not an ordinary one, either.

He won last year, beating out Nash. He had to be there to defend his title....

Kidd is last on my list. The man cannot shoot the ball. He'll do well in the passing stations but will be stuck at the mid-range jumpshot station for a while.

1. Wade
2. Paul
3. Williams
4. Kidd

Paul is going to win it.

What was Paul last year, 3rd or 4th?

Not saying he can't win it. He probably has an edge in the passing precision. But (and I don't remember off-hand) he probably hit the jump-shot on his 1st or 2nd try. Not saying this can't be repeated, but I wouldn't count on it happening again.

Co-sign.

I hope CP3 wins though.

I think they should have put Calderon instead of Kidd. I mean Kidd didn't deserve the AllStar spot in the first place (which should have gone to Chauncy with Jose backing him up), so they should have given the fourth spot in the skills comp to Jose.

I don't think Kidd wins it. It will be hilarious to see him stuck in the jumpshot part of the routine..

I hope everyone realizes Kidd's mid-range J isn't as bad as they think..he's going to be wide open, and he's an NBA player..his jumper **** on most of ours..

This is probably the dullest competition in All-Star weekend.

Watching Kobe fail the pass station last time was the most fun I had watching the Skills challenge.

Wade or Wil to win it though.

I'm really starting to hate Calderon now.
