Time for a fresh start. That 2017 ASG thread is just bad memories.
NBA has confirmed the 2019 ASG will be hosted by Charlotte.

Will Kemba be able to carry his current form and rep us at the all star game in 2019?
Be such a shame if he didn't.

At the rate we're going, the event at the 2019 All Star game will self-identify as basketball but really it will be a pre-game shoot around with less defense, not biologically basketball at all.

I'm hoping that some of the players were serious when they said they need to figure out a way to make the game more competitive and appealing for fans.

I wish they'd feel the same way about the playoffs.
But whatever I'm happy for the people of Charlotte, hopefully it will be a fun week for everyone.

I expect him to do so. And I hope by 2019 we already have a legit young star to pair with Kemba.

Don't forget the Rising Stars game. The Hornets, especially as the host franchise, could land a sophomore or rookie into that event.

MKG for the 3PT shootout. Frank Kaminsky for the dunk contest. Miles Plumlee for the skills competition.

It's too late to wow Steph but it's good for the city and region at least.

Definitely the first time I've clicked the "web view" option to read a tweet and it being one of my own.
I made it.

I was literally just about to book a hotel for 2017 before they cancelled.
People I know and on social media were really excited about the all star game. Hopefully Charlotte can actually host it this year.

So now that we have the All Star game back in Charlotte what are the odds we have Monk in the 3 point or dunk contest that year? They are always looking for young fresh faces.
