This weekend Jalen Rose and Tim Hardaway had their first all-star charity game at the United Center. It was pretty good.
The teams were broken down as follows:
White team:
Jalen Rose
Juwan Howard
Michael Finley
Jay Williams
Jerry Stackhouse
Chris Webber
Tim Hardaway (who didn't play)
Marcus Fizer
Black Team:
Stephon Marbury
Shawn Marion
Melvin Ely
Howard Eisley
Nazr Muhammad
Antoine Walker
Corey Maggette
Bobby Simmons
I think I'm forgetting some players but this game for one half was very good. Now I know it's hard to judge during one of these games how good players are because there was absolutely NO defense being played BUT Jay Williams and Stephon Marbury were dueling aqainst one another and put on some ABSOLUTELY GREAT one on one moves against one another. After watching this, Jay Williams may not be great but he's going to be a good one.
Actually Murph you'll like this one Juwan HOWARD DUNKED ON MELVIN ELY which was funny in itself. I heard about five people around me say, "I didn't even know he could jump that high."
However Shawn Marion was the star of the show. He scored 61 and he had some absolutely AMAZING dunks.. Antoine Walker did what he did best, jack the ball up from just about anywhere on the court. Fin really didn't do much but had one alley oop from Rose that was pretty unbelievable.
It was quite entertaining, I just thought I'd share if anyone here didn't get to see it.
