All Star Weekend has become a joke, from the atrocity that is All Star Saturday night to the god-awful singing performances.
The only event I remotely enjoy is the Rising Stars Challenge. And this year's was ruined by Sully's exclusion and then injury.
It really comes down to stars being pansies and not competing Saturday night. I mean, really, LeBron, Westbrook, Wall, etc. could and should compete in the dunk contest. Dr. J, MJ, and even Kobe have done it.
It's all for fun, and I enjoy it.
I mean, the Rising Stars was my favorite, because those players are certainly gonna be stars in the future. Shved was awesome and I see a big future for him! Kyrie showed his HOF skills in the Three-Point shootout and against Brandon Knight (LOL)
The Dunk Contest wasn't too good, but I enjoyed the finals and those were some nice athletic dunks. The missed dunks were just.. bad.
The skills challenge and shooting stars were never good anyways, they were just fun to watch I suppose. Maya Moore is good, obvz.
And... tonight we just get to see some nice plays we've never seen before like Paul->Howard or something. The best part could be the end when it's a close game and the best basketball in the world
