I hope the whiners sit it out and let others have the experience, even though i think some of them are still so attention greedy they cant deal with the thought of a weekend of basketball and national TV without them. But the whining will continue nontheless.

Curious as to why you think so. Last years game, the 4th quarter especially, was the most competitive and in my opinion the most entertaining one I’ve seen in years

Truth. Let the Lebrons, Durants, Irvings, etc sit this one out. Let players with 3-6 years of experience get in.

PGS - Fox, Jamal Murray, Simmons, Trae Young, Sexton, Dejounte Murray
2s - Jaylen Brown, Mitchell, Booker, SGA, Brogdon, Buddy
3's - Tatum, Doncic, Ingram, Bridges, OG Anunoby, Beasley
4's - Wood, Sabonis, Collins, Siakam, MPJ, Markkanen
5's - Bam, Turner, Ayton, KAT, Jokic, Jarrett Allen

This would be so fun to watch

It's hard for me to get excited about anything Allstar related when we still have fan voting. It has been shown over and over that fans don't vote for deserving players but rather they vote for their favorites that sometimes happen to be deserving.
