Dexo: Aug 15, 2009; A city that was to live by night after the wilderness had passed. A city that was to forge out of steel and blood-red neon its own peculiar wilderness.

In the league's defense, this seems to have happened in Philly and not ATL.

the all-star game is a bunch of guys walking back and forth doing a layup line for 3 hours, it's not even close to basketball which is why they should get rid of it, just have NBA Party Weekend every year.

It's very dumb they are having an all star game but also put Trae in it as a replacement he's already in town

Legit just name a team, do the Saturday night stuff, and then call it and let everyone have a week off

If the league doesn't at least do a playoff bubble (they won't), they are idiots.

Most NBA players are on vacation if they don't have to do All-Star poo poo.

I like the all star game and it's fun to see guys throw lobs to each other and do good poo poo that doesn't matter.

Rick: Feb 23, 2004; When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

I don�t know how it is this year but normally 3-5 guys get invited to the game as alternates.

They should use Shaq as an alt so everyone can dunk on him and shoot 3s in his face

Did ebay do a big crackdown on counterfeit jerseys? I'm shocked there aren't a bunch of counterfeit jerseys for this year's ASG. Never would have expected there to be a time with no official or counterfeit NBA ASG jerseys for sale.

Yep. https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/the-elam-ending-is-back-for-the-2021-nba-all-star-game-and-its-inventor-wants-more/

I plan on checking the box score so I know when the fourth quarter is about to start. If the starters all check back in to start the quarter we'll know it's game on.

Yeah a lot of you guys forget that the fourth quarter of last year's ASG was unbelievably good, probably my favorite basketball watching experience all year

Why would contact tracing go out the window if you've been vaccinated? Presumably you can still carry the virus even if your immune system can fight it off, no?

Because the people the NBA sorta cares about because they make the NBA money would be immune.

The only people at risk would be the people the NBA doesn't actually need to make money.

Having access to one of the covid vaccines and saying no just blows my mind.
