    Never have, probably never will. Just don't care about the AS game.

    Go Blazers

    I have always thought they should they should do one on one competitions Instead of that damn slam dunk contest. A competitions of 5 guys, first one to 10 wins, play by 1's and 2 points and no ref. Let the fans select the 5 players. That would draw some ratings!:clap:

    The All-Star game was wonderful as a youngster. However, I see little entertainment in it for me now.

    Because you are critiquing it instead of just sitting back and enjoying it like you did as a kid.

    A true hoop junkie would understand that the All-Star game is a joke.

    I vote everyday for it, but thats mostly because I was able to save the picks on Mozilla and it took like 5s to vote everyday. I'm a little disenchanted with the AS game. Always watch the first quarter then I get bored and zone out until the fourth.

    Of course it is....... but it's basketball. I don't go into it expecting real basketball, just a fun game. If you are watching the all-star game and expecting for a Game 7 Conference Finals type game, you are a clown! Just like when I went up to Rucker Park for the first time..... i went up there looking for a fun exhibition and thats what I got. But like I've said before.....I am a real hoop junkie! I'll watch Charlotte vs Milwaukee on my league pass on an off night.

    It's a joke based on how the game is put together. They need to take away the fan vote.

    I do agree 100% with this. You basically know who will be in the starting five before the voting even begins. Can TMac be on the ballet this year?:biglaugh:
