One of the funnier moments of the 2012 NBA All-Star weekend came Saturday night during the NBA Skills Challenge, courtesy of Washington Wizards guard John Wall. At the end of his turn through the "obstacle course", Wall attempted to make an alley-oop pass to himself off the backboard. However, Wall's pass was so bad that it hit the side of the backboard and bounced backwards towards the sideline.
Not only was Wall still going towards the basket while the basketball was going the other way, but he had to run all the way back to go get it and do it a second time to get it right.
Needless to say, Wall didn't get past the first round of the Skills Challenge, which was won by San Antonio Spurs guard Tony Parker.
