The NBA is trash

Players are getting paid too much these days and so they are getting lazy and don’t want to compete as much. Players should be getting paid per game being played including the All-star games.

I’m not saying this will work but give it a chance. People thought the Elam ending was dumb but it worked the first year. This might suck it might not but things evole over time and that’s ok.

They could try removing the 3pt line in the all star game

The best ASGs I’ve ever seen was when I wasn’t even a teen. It’s a shame it’s gotten worse as an adult, hopefully they can somehow make it watchable again.

These dudes don’t want to enter the dunk contest and they don’t want to compete in the All Star Game. Just cancel the whole weekend. It’s been trash for years anyway

Man just select the rosters on 2K and let the computer play the game. Stream it and let people bet on it. You’re welcome

This is why the NBA needs a salary cap. Take some of this money away then.

You would think nba players would hear the people’s frustrations and will themselves to play hard! What I would like to see is street ball players vs nba players

Lol. Goat James has watched and participated actively in the demise of all star

I don’t mind it at all. Allstar has been terrible these last couple of years. Let the league experiment!
They are any to tell the truth but can’t. Todays NBA player is too empowered

The only problem is that, there so many people that pay for see it and then you see a game that players are only running and jumping 😂. Facts are facts

An insult and a disgrace like Stephen A’s outfit at the Rams game
@lickalotofme1144
November 27, 2024 at 2:44 am
I want to see these guys fired up! They act like they care during the regular season. The All-Star game is no different, bring that energy! It’s supposed to be a showcase, not a snoozefest. Someone get these guys some Red Bull!

Stephen is right. Only way to motivate them. Let the euro’s embarres them once, and let it foster some competition.

They always say Silver is the best commissioner in sports but the NBA ratings are dropping every year while the NFL is always growing.
Stop the cap
