Sorry for creating a new thread for this, but I can't find information about the HORSE game anywhere. When is it? Are they even showing it on t.v.?

Thanks in advance for any insights...

It's not H-O-R-S-E, it's G-E-I-C-O.  And for that reason I have no intention of watching, whenever it is.

I scoffed when I first heard the GEICO thing as well. But the grapes are so sour that you're not even going to watch? Seems a little extreme to me. But I do realize that you need to maintain your status as the contrarian around here.

I'm glad they are bringing this game in. I believe that CBS had the H-O-R-S-E competition during their halftime shows during the 70's. I don't remember the right time period but I do remember all my friends at school trying to imitate them the next day at school.

NBA.com says the events start at 8pm ET but doesn't have the HORSE game listed.

Has shooting stars, skills comp, 3 pt, then slam dunk...

is this even still happening?
God bless and good night!

Maybe it's going to a pre-recorded thing that they'll show in condensed format.

A live HORSE errr "GEICO" game could drag on.
Yup

I think it starts at 5pm. I'm not sure though, but I think it's 5pm. I have a vague recollection of the schedule shown during the rookie game yesterday.

I'm wondering if Stern regrets Durant not being in the game. If he wins the H-O-R-S-E competition and had a great All Star game he could be adding another Superstar to the list.
