Regardless of the event, it is always interesting to see so much talent interact with each other under one roof, BUT, this particular event has earned the reputation of being a sloppy display of athletes running around, not quite sure how to entertain the crowd. Unfortunately, this game hasn't meant much since it was infested by The Dream Team in the early '90s. Save for a few guys who know how to inject some entertainment into their games (Kobe, Lebron, D. Wade, CP3 and Dwight Howard), this game is usually overhyped and undervalued by those playing.
If they'd just understand that all they have to do is to play the way they do during the regular season, we'd have something worth watching!
Maybe I'm just annoyed that Shaq made the cut after looking like a straight up marshmallow man on my Heat last year. Or maybe I don't understand a system that welcomes Yi Jianlian (10.5 ppg, 6.2 rpg) into the game based solely on his popularity in China. Either way, my curiosity usually gets the best of me. I'm just hoping I make it until half-time this year.
The game airs live from Phoenix (February 15th, 8pm ET) on TNT and ESPN Radio.
