All these all star games should have been left behind in the 1900s. They serve no point anymore.

Only game I halfway give an excuse too is the Pro Bowl and that's only cause football is a higher injury risk

But even then the Pro Bowl was fine until they moved it from Hawaii and changed the day it was played

Pro Bowl was always a throw away and after the season, but even then the NFL has acknowledged the shyt is a farce and just got them doing random stuff. People paid thousands of dollars to watch what happened last night :picard:

Nah it serves a purpose, it's just the players don't wanna play hard. They play harder in the Rico Hines summer runs, so there is proof they will give effort. The point is seeing the best players in the world playing together and vs each other in what's supposed to be the best basketball league in the world's best exhibition.
Y’all gotta stop saying this because you saw a few clips. Them boys ain’t playing any harder at Rico. It’s supposed to be an exhibition meant to give highlight material to fans. Let’s keep it 100 if they played defense & the score was 70 to 65 y’all would complain it was boring.

The league also presents to the players its a “break”. Nobody on this board is working at all if any on their off day. This as usual goes back to fans blaming the players when it’s the league who deserves blame. They need to decide what they want the ASG to be. You already start going down a slippery slope when you doing gimmicks.

Lastly nostalgia is whooping y’all ass again lol

I'm honestly not sure WTH that was I (sort of) watched.

I would say I'm all for bringing back the traditional East v. West format with all the conventional rules, but...211-186.

All of them since he’s essentially been a captain for the past 5-6 years

2020, and 2022 were the standouts. I know you and others don’t actually watch the games, so look them up

a game from 5 years ago and a game from 3 years ago when he shot 11 3s

:laff:

"because he was the captain"

dumbass fukking logic and it's sad it took you 12 hours to come back with that :laff:

I ain't even watch the shyt big dog. I just find it funny people say it's supposed to be a break, yeah no shyt it's always been that. But that never stopped guys from giving a basic level of effort. The league does deserve blame for doing the gimmick shyt but if the players treated it somewhat seriously they wouldn't continue to tinker with it.

players want All-Star Weekend to be exactly the same except for the part where they play. They want it like any other convention. When you go to comic-con, they're not redoing scenes live from their movie or the comic book. They take questions and hawk products. If you go to a porn convention, they take pictures and sell merch, They ain't fukkin (at least not at the convention itself). If you got to Fanatics Fest, you're spending money to take flicks with Tom Brady. He ain't suiting up to reenact his Superbowl victories. Players wanna show up, host parties, sell sneakers, promote Sprite, and see which lady tonight who should be havin their baby... baby. Everyone else would rather suck titty on a beach like Paul George.

Unlike you I actually have a job and family breh.

Yes the game where he hit the game winner, then the other game where him and KD played lock down defense on Steph

But again you don’t watch the games
