I do not think this one will end well at all, seems more chaotic and even though it needed a shakeup badly, this does not seem like the answer.

are you one of the people that also thinks that the captains will choose random players (i.e. friends) to become all stars? :banghead:


idk how this could be "chaotic". Fans, media, coaches choose all-all stars as usual. then captains choose teams from that pool.

I think we should do his before every NBA game... a different roster every night. I mean, who do you possibly root for in that scenario?

It could go many ways, with allegations of picking friends, teammates or even shutting out rivals, players who really deserve a starters spot that year, etc...

Some of which can be handled by the coach and minutes management, but I think its deffo possible.

I love it. Makes the all star game feel more like a pick up game, which is basically is at this point. The all star game is just for fun and for charity so why not?

I think we just destroyed the integrity and culture of the all star game
