-

yup.

WOW Giannis is looooooooooooooooooooooooong.
-
I'm glad Giannis isn't taking this game lightly.
-
Brad is way too nice. IT was easily the top reserve and should've been a starter. He should be out there already.
-
I think there's even less defense in this ASG than there normally is.
-
I hate all this nonsense from the commentators about Westbrook + Durant.
When have All-Star games been about this?
-
Lol the Westbrook Durant give-n-go alley oop.

the all-star game is a joke. Westbrook-Durant is the only storyline in this entire game.
-
Love IT's green kicks!
-
OH MAN! He ALMOST had the dunk there lol
-
Hope IT4 has a better showing this year. Get 'em, little guy!
-

Would have been sick lol
-
He gonna dunk

A little Westbrook/IT battle
-
Brad going with the 3 point guard lineup
-
That Russ-IT back-and-forth was awesome.
-
I'm not really a fan of Westbrook if I'm trying to win games, but he's definitely entertaining. The little battle with IT was a good show.
-
sam vs king kong
coo
-
First to 200 wins
-
How did Giannis lose his dunk contest? His crazy long arms make every dunk look epic.

Because Zach Lavine happened, haha.
-
IT is leading the East in scoring!
-
melo
knock that fool
-
oh my
who that talking to lebron...mmm
-
If IT wants an MVP this season, he should start at winning the All-Star MVP :D
-
Chris Webber seems like a genuinely nice guy. I've always liked him, especially as a commentator.
-
I hate those stupid way downtown / halfcourt shots.
-
that little IT dunk in the beginning was cute lol
-
ASG games were way more entertaining when the players really cared about who won.
-
LeBron could still win the dunk contest if he really cared to.
You can see his insane power
-
Mostly stupid
...and yet I still watch year after year
-
I watched back in the Bird days
They use this as chance to knock the crap out of somebody and no screw up aregular season game.
Moses , and this ol school guys did not know how to half try.
-
Melo looks no different in this game than any other game in regular season to me ....just another lazy ho hum day at the office
-
C's coaching staff has been very active with talking and interacting with the players from both sides.
-
its not a show unless the opponent is at least half trying.
-
Lol I love Giannis. He's doing everything he can to kill that rim.
-
Okay, Curry hitting the deck and covering his head to stay out of the poster was pretty funny.
-
It amazes me more and more every year at how such little defense being played in this game is just accepted. Maybe I'm just getting older and more fickle.
-
is it just me or this is the closest game in All Star Game in recent memory?

Is ridiculous. The game used to be far more entertaining when they went half strength. They are not even trying at this point. It is boring.
-
Both teams are going to go for 200 points tonight. Absurd.

No, they're not playing D. I rewatched Magic's last AllStar game and he caught fire and people were switching off, taking turns guarding him.
Now you have players to scared to get hurt. Players were much more durable back in the day. :)
-
Why does Cousins only have 2 minutes of action?
And Anthony Davis with 38 points so far. WOW.
The thought of possibly adding PG13 or Cousins alongside AD as rumors say... :o
-
Westbrook (or I guess Davis now?) scoring 44 in a game that will end up with almost 400 points is not more impressive that than Wilt scoring 42 in a game that ended 150-130

AND they actually played defense them
-
This is boring. Highlights made without any resistance is empty. Im fine with playing little D during all-stars, but this is too much. This is like the rookie game that nobody watches coz its full of empty highlights.
-
I am embarrassed I am watching, but I can't stop.

I'm still holding out hope for Isaiah going off in the fiurth, but he misses a couple 3s earlier so I doubt anything happens
-
Pg13 and Carmelo don't look right.
-
That was actually insulting, to a point. The NBA All-Star game is a huge production. Lots of fans watch on TV and show up live. But that was the laziest display I've ever seen in this event.
At least give me 50%. I don't think that was even 20%.

Honestly, if this is how they are going to play the all-star game, they might as well stop. I mean the skills competition was more fun than watching this. There has to be at least a bit of competition or it isn't fun to watch.

no way that was 20%, it was more like 5%.
-
Just give the players a week's rest without bothering with this ridiculous 'spectacle'. Lamest period of the season by far.

I agree. Before you could see which team had more talent, and that team will most likely win. Now its just who had the most player going for MVP, that's the team that is going to win. Heck the East got surprised by a couple of last second D by Gasol.
-
worst ASG ever.
How dare them even talk about records in a silly less than exhibition game.

yeah that scoring record for Davis needs to have a giant * next to it.

5%??? they are not playing any defense at all. NONE !!!!
Changes will be made, no doubt. Silver could not even lie that there was a show put on. The players did not break a sweat. The All-Star game used to be competitive. I remember when the West team combined to deny Shaq then with Orlando, and he managed to get one dunk off on Olajuwon. This nonsense today should be reported to the consumer protection agency or better business bureau. lol

I didn't watch a single second of the all-star weekend. Can't the players just have a week-long mid-season break? It doesn't seem like anyone enjoys the AS weekend...except the media.

Players seem to enjoy it.

Pg13 and Carmelo don't look right.
Yeah, I didn't think either of them looked good -- physically speaking.
Melo looked heavy. The only guy on the court who didn't look in shape. His effort was awful. In a game where nobody was playing much defense, Melo still stood out for his ridiculous lack of effort.
I am not sure Paul George has ever fully recovered from that injury. He is still very good but I do not think he is the superstar he is labeled as.

There we go. TP.

IMO, they let down the fans by playing only half the game (offense).
I didn't watch a single second either.
