    For an all-star weekend that doesn't have any real superstars in any competitions besides the actual all-star game, this looks pretty promising

    Any predictions for the night that don't include James White winning the dunk contest are wrong. Just so y'all know.

    I think there's a layup and some midrange shots, with a 3 pointer and halfcourt shot at the end. Don't really think there's much advantage, especially since they rotate shots with the legend/WNBA player.

    ^^^ Past winnings teams have included Landry Fields (lol), Al Horford, and Tim Duncan as the NBA players... so yeah, don't think Bosh/Lopez are as big of disadvantages as it seems. Just like any other co-ed intramurals, the more important pieces are always the 'others' aka the old guy/WNBA player.
