Giannis was the only one competing haha

This year All-Star game was a joke i didn't even bother to finish. I remember those games back then they toy around first 2 quarters. 4th quarter everybody stepping up.

[justaction]

It's an exhibition people need to relax

[swami]

I do wish they could have had better performances for the music and with little things like announcing the lineup idk if it was dumb though seems I'm also first comment

[JelaniWood]

it's true! I said the same thing amongst a group of friends and they all looked at me kinda crazy. thanks now I can send them this and show I'm not the only one that feels this way

[theesoftspoken]

And guess what, 7 years later, nothing has changed smh

[SSC]

they need an incentive, like a charity or something.

[hitthegoat]

If you think they actually tried years ago, you're simply misremembering the past.

[louididdy]

Truth. It's pathetic and disrespectful to the game.

I agree. Half of those dunks were elementary anyway. Lebron would do a dunk he's done since he was 16 years old and act like he did something special. It was dumb af. Just a bunch of overpaid people trying to look cool while doing mediocre dunks and missing 3 point shots.

i disagree no one wants to get hurt during an exhibition game the only problem this year was the game wasn't close in the fourth quarter... as long as they keep the game close within 5 minutes of the fourth quarter it's all good. If you want to see a team of all-stars really compete watch team USA every four years.

[salomoniezpizzaeria]

...cant play hard cus what happens if LEBROn breaks a ankle etc for each allstar....

[maxanime]

Make the game fucking matter I want to see the best of the best play

[jbtheprophet]

[Ballr]
