I'm always shocked that they can't get real celebrities. Like why wouldn't drake play in this?


They used to get real celebrities. Justin Bieber played in it if you recall


aside from the athletes, the only person i recognized was Jennifer Hudson. And she hasn't been relevant for quite some time.

Excited to watch Paolo, Ant, and Wemby in the skills challenge tomorrow. Probably the thing I’m looking forward to the most of anything this year. Lol.

I think it's time to scrap the celebrity game if this is all they can get. I recognize like 2 more people, and it's already a questionable thing to view with actual celebrities. Who is going to watch?

Hate the court. It looks like they're playing on a TV, which they are.

Same happened in Toronto in 2016. The winter was mild up till that weekend and all of a sudden it was the coldest weather in decades. Tough.

It resulted in a little push by players to not have all star in cold cities lol. It didn't happen obviously as its in Indiana...but it was rough.

But in his home dwelling...the hi-top faded warrior is revered. *Smack!* The sound of his palm blocking the basketball... the sound of thousands rising, roaring... the sound of "get that sugar honey iced tea outta here!"

Why are we trying to blind players and fans with this LED floor? All so we can have a ruffles chips ad on the floor?

This is just painful to watch when they're dribbling up the court with the blue background, jerseys and ball too.

I do personal protection and I had a client last night from California crying his ass off about the cold! He did not really have a the clothing for it. Unless he went out and bought a coat today he's gonna be freezing his butt off again. I'm suppose to hook up with them at about 10 pm ET so I'm gonna have to hang up the old internet for a while.
