Yikes. Watched a lot of it this year as for once really had nothing better to do. Wow that was hot garbage.

How about this. 24 NBA-All-stars---instead of this game make 8 teams and have a 3 on 3 tournament(first team to 12 with 1s and 2s) with the winning team collecting 2 million.

Have 8 captains pick their team. Would be way more interesting----for players and gamblers.

Just my thought.

My son was excited to see the draft last nite and watch the game. I told him that they DONT play defense until the last few minutes of the game

He watched for a little, mentioned to me a few times and laughed about the lack of defense, and passed out around halftime

I was telling him how fun they were to watch in the 90's when the games started at 330

A 3 on 3 tourney would be AWESOME. I always thought they do something like that on All star saturday nite.

They just go back and forth shooting half-court shots now.

That'd be a lot better

I kinda like 21 with 2's and 3's.

I've played a lot of 1s/2s and while I like it as a shooter, getting 100% more points for a 3-point pointer as opposed to 50% is too much IMO

Pure trash that gets worse every year

Just back & forth up & down the court exchanging uncontested wide open 3-pointers

It makes me laugh that they truly believe they are entertaining us

And by the way, nothing is going to change

Do you know why?

Because athletes/the players today have too much pride and are scared of being shown up by one another, so not playing defense at all gives them all an easy out

Maybe they should interview the players during the game like they do in baseball.

How many made still waiting for 400 points would've happened if not 34 point target? Want to speed up game shot clock to 15 seconds since there is no defense.....

Kinda like a 15-13 hockey game

NFL, NBA & NHL should just stop with this nonsense. Give everybody a 5 day break and resume the season

Only baseball is worth watching, because pitchers don't want to get lit up

I'm great, just swamped. Since I can't say no to new clients, my only option is to work longer with fewer distractions. Three months to flatten the curve. Three months of work and UConn and little else.

Almost through February, and March is always a blink of the eye
