nash is going to take it. i think the other three are going to struggle in the jumpshooting department, seeing as how they aren't true shooters -- they need people in their faces to have the basket go in. (see gilbert arenas last year)

I've merged the two threads, in case anyone's wondering what Emiliano was referring to. ;)

I'll be going for Wade but my prediction is Nash again.

Is this really debatable? Unless Nash completely screws up, this is his to win again.

Wade should win it... his jump shooting has came a long way since last year. Anything within the arc has a good chance of going in. Behind the arc... not so good. Maybe he will do better in a skills competition at that than in the game.

It's hard to tell which player will win the Skills Challenge but I say Nash will win it.

i never pay much attention to all-star saturday except the slam dunk contest...
but this year's skill challenge is going to be interesting to watch, forget about who will win...
in the end, i still think Nash will defend.

BTW, QRich is defending his title too, only in different uniform.

I think they have an equal chance of winning actually. Finally we see Lebron participate in ASW events that's not the Rookie Challenge or the ASG

While they may have arranged a nice field of competitors this year, did everyone all suddenly forget why they never paid attention to the Skills Challenge? It's boring as hell.

Now that I'm here: Nash is going to show these young'ns who's boss. :mrgreen:
