    It's All-Star weekend again, and I read somewhere that Boston hasn't hosted the All-Star festivities since the 60s??

    What up with that?? The Celtics are arguably the greatest NBA team in history, and they don't host All-Star games?

    Does anyone know why this is?

    Everything you say, always ends with a LOL or ahahahahahaha

    The answer i think is that, probably for an anniversary, like 60th, 65th, 70th, 75th game. You might have a longer wait.

    The league forced us to keep Reggie Lewis' salary on our cap after he died from a heart attack. Why would they give us an all-star game?

    Well im not from Boston and i haven't been there so i don't know if its attractive or not.. but don't u guys think that they should have had an all-star game there a long time ago just because of its history..

    i mean 17 championships is not a small thing. plus i think its also an important place in US history (not sure, not from the US, sorry) etc etc..

    I personally don't even care about the all-star game.
