1) What are your expectations ?



2) Which part of that event are you the most interested ?

Please don't let the All-Star game be boring like last year, 2012 was a good one though.

1)Rising Stars Challenge-Anthony Davis domination
2)Skills Challenge-Trey and Damian
3)3-Point Contest- Kevin Love and Stephen Curry are the last two but Love beats Steph.
4)Dunk Contest-Terrence Ross repeats
5All-Star Game- LeBron and KD put on a show but LeBron outduels him and East win and The King is the ASG MVP in a great game.

Gonna sit back and just watch and enjoy myself. Don't have no expectations, just hope everyone enjoys themselves and return to regular bball without incident/injuries

Thank you for your rewriting your question, it makes more sense to me

Well, i loved when they put the All star dunk but with no NBA players, LeBron was even a judge at that time

TBH no-one. Basketball is about competing the ASG has no competition involved (well no D) and there is always a possibility of injury.

I'd give them all a 4 day break (or better still play through but remove a couple of B2Bs from each teams Schedule. The rooks and Sophs was a better game but not much.

Perhaps a game between the 14th/15th man on each team and the best D-leaguers - winners get the NBA spot
