Figured we could have an All Star weekend thread to discuss all things related to it. I've posted all info necessary so far, if anyone thinks of anything else please post it or I can make changes if you like. It'll be fun to have some of our young Lakers in the festivities, albeit no Randle who did deserve to be there over Devin Booker IMHO

We can post video clips here too from the All Star Weekend, will be cool to fill this thread with pics/vids from it.

Why does the US have 6 guards and no justice winslow hes better than smart and hood. Also who decides starters on the rising stars game I think it would be fun to run clarkson russell Lavine towns and oakafor. It's all about offense anyhow.

Wish towns and clarkson was in worlds team. Turner-johnson-winslow-randle got robbed. And this was randle's last chance for that game which he would thrive.

Russell is so much better with the ball than anyone in this game it's not even close

Russell and JC should both be on the floor to close the game. Not discounting Mudiay's performance, but he's benefiting from being pretty much the only PG for the World Team out there
