The allstar game was always a joke for the first three quarters, but if the score was anything remotely close, like it was in this game, but Kobe/Lebron/Dwade/KG etc would always get competitive in the fourth....this is just kinda pathetic honestly....and I'm not one of those older is better type of fans.

For the record, the final score in the 1962 All-Star Game was 150-130. Compared to this game, the 1962 game was a defensive battle.

I'll tell y'all what would improve this at least a little bit: make all field goals worth two points. These two teams have attempted 115 3s tonight; nobody can convince me that's exciting to watch.

I'm a Rockets fan. Just another game as far as that is concerned.

Guardians of the Galaxy 2 trailer is the MVP for the night.

Sorry AD and/or Godbrook.

Just cancel this event.

The players dont care, just give them the time off.

The dunk contest was bad, but this game is right there with it.

This **** sucks.

Waste of time watching this. As soon as east was about to get close DD and a couple others blew easy layups trying to get fancy and then west scored. Derozan was like 20% responsible for ruining the game himself. Then AD cherrypicking every possession and east still cant score.

Can't believe im saying this but im mad Stevens didnt put Lebron in, he wouldnt have let this farce happen.

This is one of the most boring all-star games I've ever watched. We are deep in the 4th quarter and guys are still playing no D. I remember in the early to mid 2000's the players would actually try to play like it was a real game once you got into the 4th. This is just like a layup drill and 3 point warm up session.

I know it's just a exhibition game but this is ridiculous. No one got hurt in games when they played sets and defense. Play a real game, damn it.

No LeBron or Giannis in the entire 4th quarter? Are you kidding me Brad Stevens?
There's a reason these dudes were voted starters...that's who people want to see.
