NBA All-Star game changes format, no more East vs. West

[Donald Trumps Twitter]

You didn't answer my questions. You put these points out there. I rebutted them and now you wanna run to "well it's never gonna happen". That may or may not be true, but that doesn't mean it makes sense or that there isn't very clear and undeniable argument for making a change.

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

They still ain't gonna play defense and you know LeBron, Steph and these other nikkas contending are going to play for like 12 minutes

 

[tremonthustler1]

I never understood why people wanna see a fukking defensive minded, go hard as shyt All Star game.

It's a fukking exhibition game. I'm trying to see oops being thrown, open court dunks, and fancy ass dribbling displays. You no fun having motherfukkers are trying to turn this shyt into a bona fide wnba game.

Ol "double up on LeBron so he don't get the ball during an All Star game" ass nikkas:Mjfoh:

Ol "slow the game down so we can run a set play during an All Star game" ass nikkas:Mjfoh:

Ol "Hack-A-Deandre in the fourth quarter so we can get back into the game like it fukking means something during an All Star game" ass nikkas:Mjfoh:

Y'all bringing that no fun NFL mentality into my NBA, and I ain't having that:Unclejerrymad:

All that is cool within the flow of a game. That shyt last year was a layup line and a fixed set up for a points record for AD. I’ve been to these games. I couldn’t wait to go home after last year.

This is just dumb. They're still not going to play defense. If they make the All-Star Game at least a bit competitive by playing at least some defense then maybe it would be good.

Obviously the east is weak but we don't know what players wI'll falloff/breakout this year is all I'm saying. People are making a lot of assumptions atm.

agreed, but the AS game has been pretty much locked with who is in or out, regardless of breakout season or not, especially in the east

We will see been feeling like the conference system is outdated for the NBA in all aspects though so it doesn't bother me. They need to eliminate this system for playoff seeding also.

Last two minutes of the ASG used to be compelling but they dont even do that anymore. Only thing worth watching is Saturday night.

I never understood why people wanna see a fukking defensive minded, go hard as shyt All Star game.

People like to see competition. "Bu but I'm trynna see dunks " They have a contest specifically for dunking saturday night and the top dogs dont even want to compete in that.

 

[Versa]

It makes sense. Outside of Giannis and Lebron does the East have a top 15 player? Is wall a top 15 player?

Yes he is.

 

[Vilify]

Making the game even more irrelevant...

 

[LurkMoar]

man the captains picking gon be absolute prime time fukkery




When Kemba gets picked last

 

[Family Lives Matter]

Anybody who asks is wall a top 15 player doesn't watch the NBA

 

[lightskin jermaine]

i don't like it. you gone have some unbalanced teams leaving it up to the captains and I can already see kawhi being the last one picked because he's "boring"
