Back on Track

Hello!
I know that I haven't been able to post for more than... a month? But now I'm slowly trying to get back on track. There are too many things that I have to think about lately so I may post every other week.

I went to see the Harlem Globetrotters on Saturday night. Their performances were entertaining and constantly got my eyes glued onto the court with excitement. After the globetrotters, I realized that it was All Star Weekend. I was lucky enough to catch the Sprite Slam Dunk Contest on TV. I felt that Blake Griffin was exceptionally great, but in a way, went too far. I mean, the car? OK. But then the choir singing "I Believe I Can Fly" seems a bit overdone. Is it because of the home team/town advantage? I felt that it wasn't fair to the other contestants who did just as great as Blake. I missed the Skills Challenge and the Three-Point Contest but saw a glimpse of the recap on TV. I heard that Chris Paul didn't make the layup on the first obstacle of the skills challenge. Funny. Ray Allen was close to winning the three-point contest, but went a little short on the final racks.

The 60th All Star Game was awesome and gave some show! The top players were amazing. Kobe's dunks; Durant's threes; Lebron's power; Stoudemire's performance; and so many more! I thought this was one of the best games. Unfortunately, the EAST lost, but still, gave one hell of a show. They run so fast too. Kobe, as always, won the MVP. I think Kevin Durant should've gotten it! He scored 34 points! Kobe aimed to become the MVP before the game started! He didn't pass to anyone in the 1st quarter.
