Seems like the all-star game will be USA vs team world edit “take out all the players that’s 35 years old out then you have a good game

[ajnapoleon]

Who you think will win?


When you take out all those that are 35 years old and up

If Kerr coaches the USA team they getting packed up, he'll have them playing like the Ham Lakers

I wouldn’t even know which coach to pick to be honest

Silver talked about it on ESPN this morning. Didn’t outright confirm it though

This would be the 5th format change to the ASG since Silver took over

At the end of the day it does not matter if the players don’t care, and he’s going to have to make peace with that

The NHL did this format in the late 90's...




Looks like Silver is banking on American pride kicking in....we'll see if it works

 

[Po pimp]

Why do people think the world players would "play with pride" in an all star game format? They're not playing for their home country. We've seen how Luka and Jokic plays in these games. The only "world" player who plays hard is Giannis. Not to mention, there aren't 12 "world" players who are All Stars unless they start reaching like adding players like KAT.

 

[MustafaSTL]

In what years have there been 12 international players who were all stars? Counting KAT, this past all star game had 7. In 2024 there was 6. How are they going filling up a roster of 12 international players, 5 or 6 of whom wouldn’t normally be all stars, and then bump off 5 or 6 more deserving American all stars? People are too caught up in the last several MVPs in a row being international players.

World super top heavy. This shyt is going to get shredded once the rosters are locked.

Shaky dudes getting all stars on the world team then dudes getting snubbed from the US team.

 

[King Static X]

Apparently, they're doing this to coincide with the 2026 Winter Olympics, which will be held around that time (February 2026).

So, it's just another 1 year gimmick

Idk it’s a way to actually try out there

It’s bragging rights especially for the USA

Ant Edwards’s and Ja and Zion gonna have to show they can handle the weight

And someone gonna have to step up to the plate and be face of basketball for the USA


Tatum Jaylen cade gonna have to put up or shut up

Can’t hide then

 

[Arcavian]

The whole idea is fukking dumb, there arent enough international all stars
