Devin Harris IS The Blur!

It's official. The Guiness Book of World Records has certified it. Devin Harris is the world's fastest man with a basketball. Harris broke the record for the fastest dribble from baseline-to-baseline during the East All-Stars' practice on Saturday, running the court in 3.9 seconds. Harris also finished second in the PlayStation Skills Challenge to the Bulls' Derrick Rose. Missing a three jump shots near the end slowed him down.

Damn… that was fast. When I first watched the video, I thought he was at the half court line to start.

Imagine if he didn’t have to slow down at the end!

I really hope he can help us in the 2nd half of the season.
We need him to remain this fast, and be the Harris who will destroy defenses.
He IS the Blur!
although people don’t think.that’s the nickname for him. lol

So like… His attributes in NBA2K9 should go as follows:
Speed – 99
Quickness – 99
Anyone agree??? LOL

Clearly, the BEST professional sport “ALL STAR” show, is put on by the NBA. Congrats to Devin for making a good appearance. During the actual game, it would surprise me if he gets more than a total of ten minutes of playing time. LOPEZ also played well in the the Rookie Game, making the most of his short minutes. I am hoping that both of these NETS are back AS NETS to the All Star weekend for many years to come. I am hoping while all this stuff is going on, KIKI AND ROD are working hard for US behind the scenes to make something happen GOOD before the trade deadline. AND I am looking forward to the “second half” of the season. GO NETS!

I thought the all star game is a joke they should cancel this stupid show. The dunks were stupid, the 3 team shooting bored me to sleep. The 3 point shooter was horrible. I mean who wants to see these guys shoot 3.
Reggie Miller and Kenny smith got these hates going on with players. Miller attacks the Kid that made a mistake “hit him” ok send him out with a broken nose. Kenny keep bashing denver player Weens,Gasol, Fernadez. The whole show is Junk, also nobody gives a crap if LBJ enters or not, Other then Cavs fans.
Freaking Garbage

I enjoy allstar weekend. Vc is the best dunker of alltime, Dominique 2 and MJ 3rd. Games andtitles are the obvious team goal. But to watch these elite players do incredible stuff is fun too. MJ, Dr. J, Bird… they’ve all participated before. It’s better than any other sports allstar game.

I thought this was impressive given the number of guys who are quick with the ball until i heard that he wasn’t actually breaking a record, he was setting one that didn’t exist. I’d be willing to bet that if you took every NBA player, someone would be able to beat that…maybe even someone not from the NBA.
