I still watch Saturday night (although I can’t remember the last time I was impressed with the festivities, other than excited for Celtics winning events), but I haven’t really watched the games in quite some time.
The gimmicks like team captains and whatever are very lame. East vs West, the best vs the best. Let’s see who’s better. But those days appear to be over. I understand not treating it like a playoff game, but I’m sure there’s more defense played in practices league-wide.
