    Which further cements the conspiracy theories out there. The NBA has turned into promoting the same cities all the time, the same individual players all the time.

    "So, Mr. Stern, do you have any preference on who you'd like to see in the Finals this year?"

    "Lakers vs. Lakers, of course!"

    The problem with Chi-town comes from the fact that there's a considerable distance between the hotels the NBA would like to use and the United Center.

    Insofar as ASW is concerned, I'll settle for watching three All Stars 41 nights a year rather than 30 All Stars one night.

    Sam Smith said in his mailbag that the Bulls made a policy after the 1988 Allstar game not to make a bid for the game because their fans complained about not being able to get tickets to the 1988 game.

    Is it possible the Blazers have a similar policy?
