    So you’re feelings aren’t hurt, I’ll rephrase to selfish, spoiled and too lazy to play an all star game that went on for 60 years with a decent level of “competitiveness” that now is nonexistent. Guys who are paid more than ever - by any measure you want to use - who can’t play an all star game anymore. But god forbid they get left off this special team. That hurts their potential income.

    I still won't watch it. The All Star game has been a joke and unwatchable for many years. This wont change that.

    Clippers are hosting the All-Star Game this year in their new arena. The league should prevent Balmer from being anywhere near it.

    I don't see any need for that, its nothing hurtful to any group that Balmer did. At worst the Clippers had a salary cap violation which should just have penalties to the team and move on. Maybe those are FRP which would devastate the Clippers and rightly so if they violated rules. But there is no need to ban individual Clippers management or owners.

    If any NBA individual should be banned it should be Kawhi and or his corrupt family.

    I said it before. They should have to play across the parking lot at The Forum for a few years!

    This will be the event to watch. Especially if you have to be an all star, former all star, previous all nba or in the future stars game to be able to play. They should do a tournament and give the winner...

    Or make it really interesting and give the winner $10M and the runner up the $1M. I don't think LeBron or even Giannis would play in the tourney but you get eight of the best one on one guys from those groups playing for some real money and see what happens.

    You're just mad that a Wookiee wasn't one of the pre-chosen forms and you got stuck with the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.

    You know who one of the best 1 on 1 players is out there…..name might surprise you, Michael Beasley. Been cooking guys for years. Never quite figured it out mentally , but he is a beast.
