NBA commissioner Adam Silver says All-Star Game needs 'reset'

[Renkz]

10 point shot at half court? they are grasping for straws


2008 would forever be the best NBA all star game

I would put 2001 all star game ahead this.

I think they just need to try raising the stakes of the game. As much money as the game makes make the winner's share way bigger. The problem is legit just the players not taking it seriously enough.

I see Silver's calculated name dropping of Jordan and Jeanie Buss.......Jordan(Oakley situation)......Buss(Lakers situation)

Raising the stakes will only make guys who got snubbed wipe players out before that weekend

Shoot look at the off season. All the charity games and pick up games. Even Jamal crawford's Pro am league. You can get injured there too. If anything, move the all star game to the summer after the finals.

That's a guaranteed way to make sure LeBron never plays that game again

Put money up for the winning team charities or some shyt.

The Million Dollar All Star Game

They play harder in Pro Am and pickup games then they do in the All Star game.

That's because you don't wanna get embarrassed by a nobody in front of kids that look up to you. Stars go there to put on a show, but when the other player gets the ball and someone in the crowd is like "ayo let me see something. Get that bum ass nikka," shyt gets real

 

[Eye Cue DA COLI GAWD]

Coaches should demand these nikkas play hard in the 2nd half. If they don't want to, sit they ass down.

 

[Shogun]

Lose the game....lose a finger.

Spoiler

 

[Liquid]

How about they play some fukking defense? fukk that gimmicky shyt.

Basically. A 4 point play is a terrible idea IMO.

 

[jadden]

They should make it like MLB where the winning conference gets home court advantage for the finals. Dudes would play harder if that was the case

 

[Tom Foolery]

Was the NBA All-Star game always this much of a festival? It seems the All-Star game is just an excuse to throw a huge city party than actually watch talent.

 

[Koapa]

He was hurt before the All Star game

He still participated and got re-injured.

 

[1/2 Man 1/2 Hennessy]

Just copy the MLB and whoever wins the All-Star game gets home court in the Finals
Your record gets you home court all the way up til the conference finals
Also, just get better nikkas for the dunk contest gotdamn
