I'm watching this on TNT OT since Fubo doesn't have TNT. Man this sucks with these weird angles and no commentary.

Haven’t watched a second of All Star weekend and don’t plan on it.

They should cancel this and just give these guys a weekend off since that’s how they treat it anyway.

Do a Pro Bowl type game after the season is over if you want. Or just do nothing. These guys don’t care at all and don’t want to care. Too much money at play.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

The sad thing is, a non NBA player, non All Star, is going to threepeat in this contest. All this kid has done in his life is practice crazy dunks for years. It's fun to watch him but, he doesn't even belong here. It's really not fair to the guys who have been in it the last three years.

Might as well add trampolines and Cirque du Soleil acrobats next year.

You can find amazing dunks on YouTube. The best dunkers in the world don’t even play in the Association. The league should make an initiative to get the best dunkers in the world to compete in the dunk contest and not have it only be NBA players only

Chris Paul got thrown out of the skills challenge for being a cheat and fraud. Truly the highlight of my evening. Solidifying that legacy of failure

I think they should have all stars act as hype men for no name dunkers. Justin Darlington presented by LeBron James, for example. The money and recognition would mean something to those guys plus there would be some name recognition involved. Just get the best dunkers out there. It could even be an NBA player.
