Its just strange that Lillard won the 3pt contest, but he won't play this year for his achilles.

Shows you how much of a gimmick this weekend mostly is. Even this dunk contest, Jaxson Hayes and 3 guys I've never heard of before. Oof

Yeah there's some things here or there that are cool, but the game itself definitely isn't one of them. Also, that stadium for yesterday's festivities looked like a Miami Heat game with only like 100 seats filled lol

Lol and then Jaxson Hayes with probably one of the most basic/boring dunks I've ever seen in a "dunk contest". Literally looked like a transition dunk you do in slow motion in practice.

Honestly the only dunk I said wow to was the Carter Bryant 50. And even then, it wasn't a 50 like the Lavine/Gordon duels were. Heck it wasn't even McClung level.

They need to find a way to encourage actual stars to participate. Can you imagine an Amen Thompson level player participating?

Peacock complaint:

Well, I would have liked to watch the three-point contest and the Team Harper appearance, but I was out.  Because this was on streaming, I couldn't set it to record.  Unless I'm missing something, or there's some issue with my particular interface, there was no option for me to start this All-Star session at the beginning.  I just turned it on to see a bunch of Knicks celebrating, so I guess they won.

I hit the same thing with a game on Peacock once and missed almost all of it.  How does a streaming service backed by a major network not have this basic functionality?
