NBA NBA All-Star weekend, February 13th-15th, Intuit Dome, LA

Team World was a fucking skeleton of what it should be. They need to run this back next year with a healthy roster. We all know a team of Wemby/Jokic/Shai/Luka/Giannis would dominate.
Depends if sga, jokic, luka and giannis care and play serious.
 
The World team issue is they have the best five possible on paper, but half of it doesn't care and the bench sucks balls.
 
This format can be improved if Silver listened to me, tbh. Just form 4 teams of 6 players each (1 sub per team) and just play semifinals, maybe a 3rd place game, and then the final. Simple.

You can even keep the West vs East format if you want. 6 west players vs 6 west players on one semifinal, and 6 east players vs 6 east players in the other. The final inivetably being West vs East.

The only tweak that mattered was Wemby giving a fuck tbh. :st-lol:
 
Of course, the assumption is that they actually play their normal game, otherwise what the fuck is even the point of anything.
Nah. They dont play their normal game in an allstar game. Unless they care to win.
 
The NBA has just upgraded a product that was losing ground. National TV is happy, and so is the public. All thanks to the leader of the Spurs, the boring team from the beginning of the century that no one wanted to see in the finals. Give him three billion dollars, he just saved the day.

The basketball media has been trashing the ASG for twenty years in France. That's what being so French is good for: complaining so that things change.

Luka and Jokic play no defense, and since they're going up against allstar calibre players on the other end, I don't think they're made for serious all-star type games. They can be exploited on defense against elite offensive players, and these all star teams a full on those types of players.

This too. Some of those guys won't give any effort (fair enough as I don't care about the all-star game that much either).
 
TD didn't give a crap about them and I didn't either, so I guess I won't trash current players that don't care about it too.
 
Its crazy some people here care about wemby winning allstar mvp but dosent care for him winning league MVP(highest individual award).Lmao

I don't care about that either. If I am guessing, I think TD didn't really care about MVP. More rather winning the Championship than anything else, but maybe since he won two of them (should have won more), his focus might have shifted after getting a couple of them.

Nah, the format helped too. With the regular long ass game we wouldn't have had all those minutes of high intensity in crunch time. Wemby definitely set the tone, but the format helped too.

Who said that? I would much rather him win league MVP, between the two.
 
Also :st-lol: Kawhi for having his big "home court all star moment" - only to get crushed in the final. Bitch
