“Suite Talk” moves poolside, as Skeets and Tastradumas predict the outcome of every meaningful All-Star event this weekend. Why is Justin Bieber a lock to win Celebrity Game MVP honors? Which roster is more talented: the Rookies or Sophomores? Does anyone have a chance in hell of upsetting Blake Griffin in the Sprite Slam Dunk Contest? And will fresh blood want that All-Star Game MVP, or is it Kobe’s to lose at home?
Watch to find out, and then leave your predictions below in the comments for a chance to win some swag. (Seriously. Free t-shirt to whoever calls the most winners/MVPs. Good luck, everyone.)

Celebrity MVP: Zachary Levi
Rook/Soph: Rooks Win. Cousins MVP.
Skills Challenge: Derrick Rose
3 Point Shootout: Ray Allen
Dunk Contest: Blake Griffin
Jimmy Kimmel for celebrity game MVP, Blake Griffin for rookie-sophmore MVP in a rookie win, JaVale McGee winning the dunk contest, Kobe with the hometown allstar game MVP in a West win, and Tas bringing the home the W in whatever contest you crazy kids come up with. It has been spoken.
BTW, James Jones is 30 years old. His legs may be younger, though.
I sincerely hope David Stern goes out there with the Celebrity game MVP trophy, takes the mic and announces Esmeralda Spalding as the winner over Justin Bieber. That would make me so happy.

Yeah, Tas, Griffin will definitely do great “here in his hometown.”…Except he’s from OKC not mark-ass LA. And I can’t wait for Air Congo to drop a nuclear bomb on Skeets’ negativity because he’s got dunk contest experience (in Spain) and will get 2nd place
Celeb MVP: Bieber

Shooting Stars: Team Texas
Skills: Rose
3 Point: Ray Ray

All-Star: East w/ MVP LeBron
Tas and J.E….. DeJuan Blair was Co-MVP last year with Tyreke, and holds the record for most rebounds in the Rookie/Sophomore game; why can’t Blake dominate this game? I think he does, and wins MVP
his mother was a mudder?
Great clip! Skeets actually spoke at the speed of a West coast american! Probably just hasn’t found the good coffee yet! Tas, just a hint. Sunglasses work! Looked like a Chilean coal miner surfacing after 60 days without sunlight!

I just listened to a simmons podcast where he and kimmel previewed the celeb game……no mention of Common went they went through the rosters…..
the NBA site says he’s playing (which is why I’m sure a lot of people picked him). But, if he doesn’t, I’d like to replace my choice of Common with Joel McHale (who they listed as being on Simmons team).
But, if Common plays, I’ll obviously stand by my original pick.

You spend 2 minutes on the celeb game and no time on Shooting Stars?
How can I know who to bet on? Answer: I don’t.
I’m betting on Team Texas. If I lose, you’ll know.
A Thunder Sweep in all events
(Sophmores w/ Harden as MVP, Durant in 3PT, Dunk Ibaka Flocka Flame, Skills Westbrook, All-Star West w/ Durant as MVP.)
Celebs are about to start and Common is playing, so I’m sticking with my original pick.
