Was Derrick Rose Even Trying?
It sure didn’t look like it took much effort on Rose’s part to win the skills challenge. He is on another level when it comes to speed, strength and athleticism. His dunk at the end is monstrous. Sign that kid up for the dunk contest!

Chester Frazier would have run away with this thing.

What about a skills competition where its all 12th men? Mark Madsen attempting to dribble! Cedric Simmons hoisting threes over the backboard! They could do a oldtimers version where Kurt Rambis gets winded and fails to finish! Get Simmons on this.

Massie, are you saying that the HORSE competition was bad? At first I was skeptical, but it ended up arguably the most entertaining contest of the weekend.

Nope, I only caught the end of the HORSE competition and I thought it was good. It can also get better, which is exciting. I just mean the trophy was intentionally shitty, and also very very funny. Thanks to the point guards, the “skills challenge” was also intentionally shitty, yet not funny at all.

This contest was the biggest joke of the weekend. Worse than the trophy for the HORSE competition because it wasn’t as funny. Rose looked good and yes it was effortless, but there was zero effort in the whole thing. Rose was the fastest lazy bum in the competition.
