H-O-R-S-E a.k.a. G-E-I-C-O

Kevin Durant staged a massive comeback and won the first All-Star Weekend Edition of HORSE.


As is pretty clear from the video, Durant had the least creativity in his shots. This was one of my concerns about this, was it going to become a free-throw shooting contest. The rules prohibited repeating a made shot, but didn't prevent Durant from walking around the 3-point arc.

Also, what is with that cheap trophy? It looked like some intern went down to Toys'R'Us, bought some toy horse for $4.95 and slapped some GEICO stickers on it. Were all of the trophy shops in Phoenix closed and they couldn't even get a generic basketball trophy?

If they do this next year, they should move the event indoors, get some players with some trick shots (or at least be creative in their shots), and get a real trophy.
