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
I'm bitter.

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'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.

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
