What’s good everyone? Only one more day left for me at All-Star Weekend, and Saturday night was pretty special.

I successfully defended my H-O-R-S-E title against Rajon Rondo from the Boston Celtics and Omri Casspi from the Sacramento Kings. And this time, they gave me a real trophy!

Just like last year, I needed some long distance shooting to help me get the win because Rajon was knocking those shots down. He was having me sweating a little bit, but it was all fun. I’m glad I was given an opportunity to come back and defend my title and I’m glad I won it again, so we’ll see next year what I do.

I wanted to try more trick shots this year but that wasn’t working for me. Rondo, he missed a couple of shots he should have made, like the one he spun on his finger. I know I couldn’t have made that shot, so I was fortunate enough to catch him when he was missing some shots and I made some.

Someone told me that I hit eight straight three-pointers down the stretch. Once the ball left my hand it felt good. I left my release up there and it felt like I was just practicing again. Not sure if you were watching it on TNT, but Charles Barkley said over the air that he thought Rajon would come out on top. It was all good, though, because Kenny Smith went with me, and we ended up getting the dub.

As far as the new trophy I got, I’m going to put it with the one I won last year. It’s a sweet trophy, and it capped another busy day for me. I started things off at the Jam Session, where I got to wear my All-Star practice jersey, which was an awesome feeling. I had another media session, where I was asked some of the same questions over and over. Then I made some appearances for Gatorade and Nike and ended the night at the arena to watch All-Star Saturday Night and cheer on my teammate Russell in the Skills Challenge.

I can’t believe that Sunday is already here! Tonight is going to be a night to remember. I can’t wait to put on my All-Star jersey and run through that tunnel.

That’s all for now. I’ll be back with another post later.

What’s good everyone? Man, I’ve been so busy down here in Dallas for All-Star Weekend, but I had to put up a blog to let you all know what’s going on with me being that I’m a first-time All-Star.

Well, I made my coaching debut tonight as an assistant for the Rookie team in the Rookie-Sophomore game, which the Rookies eventually won. I’ve got to give a shout out to my teammates James Harden and Russell Westbrook. They both played well.

Obviously, this coaching gig was something new for me and I was excited to do it. Once they asked me to do it, it was a no-brainer. I was very happy to be a part of it and glad to see the rookies get a win. I know that Russell and James did some friendly trash talking before the game, but they really didn’t matchup against each other and I didn’t call any plays.

But Russell, he played great, tremendous basketball. If they would have won, he would have gotten the MVP. But either way I’m happy.

And if you were watching the game on TV, you might have seen me all decked out in a black suit. It was a tailored suit that I got in L.A. It’s not often that I’m in a suit on the sideline, so it was nice to switch it up a bit.

Well, I’m gonna come back with another blog real soon about the media availability that the All-Stars had on Friday afternoon. I hadn’t faced this many reporters and cameras since I was drafted. It was crazy.

Hit y’all later.

What’s good everybody? Hope you all are doing well. We came up short last night against a tough Bulls team. We’ve had a tough stretch in our last 3 games, but I promise we will bounce back. That’s my word!

I’m so glad we’re home this week, but man, it’s been a busy one. I had a TV camera crew come to my crib the other day to film a promo commercial for this year’s H-O-R-S-E competition at NBA All-Star Weekend. Yup, I’ll be there to defend my H-O-R-S-E crown. And I’ll tell you what, that commercial shoot was a lot of fun.

They set it up like I had to try to find the H-O-R-S-E trophy that I won last year somewhere in my house. I don’t know if you’ve seen it or not but it’s literally a horse trophy, just a little plastic thing that TNT and GEICO gave me when I won last year in Phoenix. The commercial shoot was pretty neat because I’ve never done that before. Oh yeah, the horse was actually in a drawer in my room.

As far as why I entered the contest again, well that’s pretty simple. I’m the reigning champ, and you know the reigning champ always has to come back and try to get another one. Plus, it was a lot of fun. It was exciting. Fans were really into it. It was televised nationally and I got to shoot against some great players. I’m excited to do it again.

I used to play H-O-R-S-E all the time as a kid with my brother Tony and our friends from the neighborhood. We used to call it OUT, PIG, GEICO (just kidding). But I played it a lot growing up and I like to think that it kind of prepared me for that day last year. Hopefully I’ll go in there and get another horse, or maybe a real trophy this time.

I might try some trick shots, but if I’m not making them that’s when I’ll go to my regular tactics. I’m just going to do it on the fly, but I might start practicing this week or so if I find the time. I actually didn’t practice heading into last year’s competition, so I just shot regular shots.

So what do you all think of me defending my H-O-R-S-E title? You guys have any suggestions for trick shots? Or should I keep it simple? Let me know in the comments section.
