NBA had better not do USA vs the World for rising stars

TravisScott55 · Post #1 » by **TravisScott55** » Tue Nov 9, 2021 5:25 am

So the past few years the NBA has done USA vs the World for the rookie/sophomore game during all star weekend as opposed to Rooks vs Sophomores. This year the NBA might want to consider going back to rooks vs sophomores at least for this year.

Consider the USA team: Lamelo, ANT, Jalen Green, Barnes, Mobley, Cole Anthony, Cade, Davion Mitchell, Maxey

World Team: Duarte, Giddy, Banton, Poku, Wagner, Precious, Senguin, Primo? Garuba?

It could get really ugly.

I think its still cool to see. to show that The US can still push out good prospects. Theyve gotten beat up by the world team numerous times, its fine for it to happen both ways.

Like to see an end to the jingoism and the "us versus them" approach. How about something a little different?

Yeah they need to go back to Rookie vs Soph game. that was really fun. With the USA vs World, some undeserving players make it while some deserving ones get left out.

They should do Rookie vs Sophomore again, I always liked that better than USA vs World. Also, they should get rid of this Player X vs Player Y for the All-Star game and go back to East vs West.

Rookie vs Sophomores is always fun to watch. They can make it more fun by giving the rookies a proper point head start to make the odds even

THIS 1000x!

East vs West was the best. Watch the all-star games from the 90s to around 2005. Every game for the most part was competitive. Stop with the captains picks. The rookie vs sophmore was also great.

Or at minimum get rid of East vs West selections if we are going to mix the teams up anyway. Top 24 players overall.
