I haven’t watched 1 second of a all-star game in 5+ years. Why would anyone watch to watch players not even try. You could grab a game off the street, and he could get 60. They only ones not laughing at the all-star game are the players. They seem to have no problem not trying to play basketball. They sure want to get paid. They just not want to have to play to get played. Every player that gives no effort banish them from the NBA for a year without pay. They don’t like to don’t play. I’d rather see 5 bench players actually trying than these soft a Charmin NBA so call superstars players not give a s*it.

Let the players put money up. Forget pride, nothing fuels competition like when your dollars are on the line

This is another reason. No player from today will ever be considered the goat. They used to play hard at the All Star game. Especially when jordan played, they played the whole game hard.But the final five minutes got real tough

It needs to go back to east vs west. And the winner should get home court advantage in the finals.
