Philly bouls, Trust the Process
ASG this year was amazing, I loved this shyt. Especially at the end when they really clamped down. Picking teams and putting money down really incentivized the guys to play a great game, one of the best I can ASGs I can remember.

What other changes should be made for the future to continue improving the game? What new changes do you think they should get rid of?

They have to televise the draft next time. I want them all in the same room for the draft, make them look these nikkas in the eyes like we on the playground pickin teams :lolbron:

I think they should increase the prize money and/or have players put their own money up for fukkery purposes

fukk coach for pullin Embiid at the end, cost my mans the MVP :scust: :mjcry: he stopped PG and got a bucket and got yanked, only played 20 minutes :pacspit:

Televising is an easy option, but I feel like some players should be given a better chance to eat. Embiid was the most desired guy period and he only got one big real chunk and little outside that. Dame took over in his time in but was out during the clutch. Harden was awful and should’ve been pulled.

I don’t know how you regulate when to put people in, but Dantoni did a poor job. Although without Hardens impact, team Steph probably blows em out the water

Planning on going next year.

Make the events affordable.
Televise the draft with the players there. The last ones to get picked with ensure fukkery
Yeah them being so expensive had killed the crowd years on end. Some dude said upper tickets back in Toronto were like 400. Just terrible

Make nosebleeds like 50, maybe 75. Find a lane where people who actually know more than 5 nba players (typically not rich people) can support. They the ones who actually making players name brand

The NBA has sort of lost touch with this All-Star week shyt. They won’t make money charging that low without a major shift.

They put on this crazy extravagant show that only increases the price across the board with all the extra security, celebs and other unnecessary bs that it has priced out the average fan.

Draft the players live on TV
3pt contest Bring in legends to also compete in the contest 4 legends 4 current players
Get rid of skills competition
Have a 1 vs 1 game every year fans vote on who faces who this is the main event on Saturday night
Keep Dunk Contest as is

This would be the GOAT all-star event

They have to figure out how to draw a better crowd.

Only watched the first half but instead of the constant chucking of 3s, where was the 1v1 battles? That’s what the fans really wanna see, a nikka getting crossed up. Harden ain’t even try the shyt.

If more of this happened in the second half, good. But none of that happened in the first.

ASW ain’t for regular people, a bunch of companies get tickets and give em to their employees. shyt is fukked up for the actual fans, it’s a fukking party for non fans.

If you make the tickets 50 bucks then scalpers will buy them all and the price will move back to true market value. You would have to limit ticket sales and then force people to show up with an ID that matches the credit card like Prince used to do. The NBA ain't going through all that hassle especially with a crowd that consists of a good portion of out of towners. You can't even see the Warriors or Cavs play for 50 bucks so I don't see how the NBA could justify making All Star prices that low.


But on to the topic at hand, eliminate the Kevin Hart shyt. We don't need a 30 minute skit before announcing the players.
