Lol @ having to make this quick change due to the acquisitions of the west this offseason

I hate this format in the pro bowl, people already played that game soft, but it's gotten worse when you can be lining up against your starting qb or wr - you definitely won't play hard against them. people complained about the sheer lack of any "trying" the past few years of the ASG, this could be like the NFL and make it even worse - who is gonna risk hurting their own teammate?

On the other hand, maybe guys will show out a little since it is a chance to compete against their own team? Kinda sucks tho if your squad got more than one all star and they end up on opposite teams.

Last two minutes of the ASG used to be compelling but they dont even do that anymore. Only thing worth watching is Saturday night.
:usure: there's been one good one the past 6 years

The overall format has basically been the same for the past 15 years and it's boring as shyt. Only the 3pt is worth watching

Bro he makes sense. The east is trash, you just tryna stretch nothing into something.

The east been trash, all he is saying is the eastern teams have the advantage of playing against lesser competition,


You have to be a lebron fan to be doing all this

What was my point? What was I arguing in favor of?

Well we already know it's gonna be a steph va Lebron top ballot. Silver cashing in on this rivalry knowing damn well we about to get yet another finals match up of the same two teams.

Not gonna say the players, that's better than ever, but the league is trash bags right now.

They should've made it East vs West but based on where you're from/where you were born.
