It seems bad that the arena for the All-Star events was mostly empty. Even the in-person fans consider the All-star break dead.
I missed the dunk contest, but now I'm seeing that they turned it into a... Dunk and Dance contest?! Where after each dunk the players had to boogie out like it's Fortnite or something? Groan.
They do some nice dunks, but then they bust out the ridiculous Fortnite dances afterward.
Who's they, white man? It was just the kid from Miami and that was his choice.

I hate to say it, I really do, but Book choked at the end of the three point competition. He was on fire and then missed the last three. Any one of them would have tied it and two would have won it.

How’s everyone liking this format? It’s meh…. I think it would have been better with 4 teams so one team isn’t having to play games back to back (to back in the case of this game for the stripes). Definitely feel like there’s more def played in today’s game vs the last decade.

I like it, but also would prefer 4 teams. Why not two international, two USA?

It’s definitely more engaging than the last few, minus this blow out game 4… which another world team could help fix so the old farts aren’t gassed lol

Outside of the championship, this was easily the best all star game I’ve watched. It was legitimately good basketball and everyone was trying.

When we get new unis, the sunburst on the first should be a version of this.

That was actually a pretty decent All-Star Game(s). The players mostly seemed to try and give a shit. You could see certain guys like Ant Edwards and Wembanyama were really going for it, and I think that's contagious. I don't know if it was because of the USA vs World format or not, but for whatever reason, the stars gave us some good basketball. That's good to see!
His bitch ass ain’t playing…. What a way to tarnish what could have been a great legacy and career…. By the end of it he’ll have burned all of his bridges and nobody will want to retire his ass or want any connection to him. Really kinda sad.
