Brian W: This has been the worst all star weekend. Way too many commercials and not enough basketball. This format is awful and I hope it is history after this year.
Bay V: The basketball isn’t the problem with the All Star weekend. It’s that there’s way too much padding between the basketball – too much non basketball content and I’m not even just talking about the ads.
Hussein M: Format was great if there wasn’t 25 minutes of basketball and two hours of commercials, Kevin Hart, Mr.Beast, and people talking non stop about back in the day stuff
Zach C: To be honest it feels disjointed right now with all the breaks between games and timeouts. And he has a point regarding chasing greatness with ASG records. But the game has to matter for chasing those records to mean something, and I’m still seeing weak effort even though the defense is better.
But yeah, people like Draymond, Chuck and Shaq complain about the game and then wonder the why the fans don’t like it either. Talk about friendly fire.
