Make contracts incentive based. Max contract $10 million/year Millions in incentives to the point where players can make 40-60 million in a year. Min games will be 70 games with min 25 mins per game to qualify for incentives
Not sure why they included Bron in the good ole days when he killed All Star weekend pouting because he was not an all star starter. He coward out of the dunk contest. Bron paved to path of not appreciating the fans. All Star weekend is their thank you to the fans that pay.
This aint gonna work. Unless the players start taking the All Star Game seriously, nothing is gonna change. Period. May as well just get rid of the game all together because i dont think thatll happen anytime soon.
@@vaporfogg3437 no one ever said anything about it needng to be the Finals. That wasn't even an apt comparison. Besides, I've watched the NBA for over 30 years. The 2014 AS Game alone disproves your entire post. The AS game USED to be fun and competitive. All-Star weekend as a whole used to be something we were excited to tune in and watch. It wasn't always perfect or every even an outstandinf spectacle. However, more often than not, the players cared and us fans tuned in by the MILLIONS to watch. Now most events are uninspired as the players themselves don't want to be there to put on ehibitions & great performances for the fans. They are entitled and feel completely above those who helped them grow the sport.
Why does the GAME need to keep making concessions for these guys that don’t want to play! Adam silver is ruining the NBA, he bends to the players and in the meantime is changing the game. We have to do something about load management, the players not wanting to play in the all star game, and so many other disrespectful things the players are doing to the fans.
What we see in the NBA today is the devastating impact that AAU has had on the American game. This hasn't just happened; this poison has been in the system for the last 2 to 3 decades. The kids that have come through the system weren't taught how to be better basketball players; they were taught how to be individual stars. David Stern changed the marketing model towards the individual, and that's a huge problem in a team game. There is absolutely nothing that they can do to fix the All-Star game and it should end. The players don't want to play hard in it because they don't know how to. The American players have zero concept about team; they've all been raised to think of themselves
If you agree to participate in the All-Star game as a player and you dog it, the Commissioner should be able to suspend you without pay for 3 games for conduct detrimental to the league. Problem solved.
The NBA is trash. Players have mega contract$ yet they won’t put the effort to ball or tend to sit out. I don’t understand why fans continue to buy tickets or watch on tv. It’s clear the players don’t care about their fans.
All star game died when Lebron refused to do the dunk contest. Kelvin out here blaming young cats when its the leaders who should be invested - each one teach one. STOP THE LEBRON CAP, KELVIN
Dunk contest has nothing to do with the all star game, but whatever fits your narrative about Lebron is all that matters, right? Lebron haters hate him so much but cry he never did a dunk contest 😂 it’s definitely a love/hate relationship. Yall love that man. Just admit it.
Let me guess LeBron will be a captain. Somehow he will try to get garbage Bronny in there and it will be another NBA failure. The league is a complete and uter joke. I haven't watched an all star game in many years. I use to watch it all the time
You have to go with the Nuclear option and make the game for home field advantage in the finals. Thats the only way players will take it serious. Do that for one year to prove a point.
They should just end All-Star weekend. Make it a weeklong break. Eventually, MFs will complain that there isn't an All-Star weekend. The players don't have rivals and they don't care about bragging rights. They move around so much that conference loyalty doesn't exist. Don't get bent out of shape because the stars are having fun during a game they could care less about.
The best idea I’ve heard is international all stars versus USA all stars. Or something like all stars from California versus the rest of the league’s all stars.
You guys are 100% correct! Make these guys play and stop bull shiting. Stop putting some of these guys on the All Star Team. Adam Silver is horrible. David Stern was a much better commissioner. The pick up format is STUPID!! This all starts with letting the players Load Manage, shoot too many 3's, no defense, etc.
These players are earning so much money. What about addition by deduction. Meaning, teams will be deducted of their actual salary during all star games. Whether they play or not. All stars will be deducted a certain percentage of their actual while doubling the amount to the losing teams. I bet that they would compete. Incentives won’t work, coz they already have lots of money, unlike losing a part of their own money. Remember back when NBA’s tag line was “NBA Cares”, give back to the fans, since All stars weekend are for the fans.
I love how old boy tossed LeBalco’s name in there like HES not THE main player that’s KILLED competition in the NBA. He’s a coward he’s NEVER wanted to compete he’s Mr. Super Team Up. FOH
Why would anyone care about this game when all the fans and media talk about is winning championships. The players are only trying to win championships and aren't interested in winning or competing for an All-Star game. If you were making this kind of money and everyone is chasing fame and social media relevance, would you care about this game. Back when this game was good and competitive the players made a lot less money. It is so easy to talk the talk about what we would do in this situation, but I would bet 90% of us would be just like these guys and chasing those titles, that fame, and those big bucks. Let the game go because you can't make it mean anything to the players anymore no matter what format that is used!
Rob please do the fans a favour and get a new co-host. We want to hear your takes, but this guy just cutting you off non stop. Odd couple is rubbish now
You want to fix the Allstar game split the teams 25 and under vs 26 and older. The older guys would actually have to try because the young guns would want to put the current guard on a highlight reel and we all know how important image is to these guys. Imagine Ant and Luka vs LeBron and Giannis. Also allows you to showcase up and coming stars who may be on bad teams at the moment and don't get exposure.
What exactly do you think the NBA can do to make them play? 😂 These dudes are beyond rich and play in a sport where stars have the biggest impact. They doing whatever they want.
The NBA is slick. Every year, they're going to change the format to keep us watching because if they ever repeat a format, they'll lose viewership, so they'll be announcing a new format every year. Watch! 🤣🤣🤣
There was never anything wrong with the East vs West format. Simple fix: - East vs West - Winning conference gets home court advantage in the NBA Finals - All Star stats count towards regular season stats. Points, assists, rebounds, blocks, the works. Job done ✔️
Tennis has the Laver Cup which is pretty much like the tennis equivalent of the All-star Game (not counting ATP Finals) and that honestly is my favorite tournament of the year. Everyone there is competing at their highest level even though it's right before the Asian swing of the ATP season. Tiafoe had an epic choke job this year against Zverev there which was pretty entertaining to watch.
8 east vs 8 west. 8 min 1/4 8 winners get 3 mill each 8 loosers get fined a mill each Players elect if they want to participate b4 vote starts. Problem solved
All Star Weekend is dead now that's the truth everyone including Adam Silver needs to accept, the momentum that was once there is gone now. Players who are great dunkers in game don't want to participate in the dunk contest, the players don't want to actually play in the All Star game itself and the league's ratings are dropping more and more meaning people are losing or have already lost interest and rather wait to the playoffs to really tune in it's a wrap.
😂You don’t need any gimmicks. You need the players to actually be competitive. I don’t watch the all star game anymore because the players clearly don’t care. It’s boring. I’d honestly rather watch them play Spades because I know at least some of the players would get into it😂. It’s said but watching your family play spades at a get together is waaaaay more fun to watch than the all star game now. And it’s 100% on the players. I say don’t even have it. You can still have the skill contest and 3 point and dunk contest all that for the weekend. But honestly I say get rid of the actual game and don’t even give the players votes that say they were all stars. So they can’t have that on their resume any longer for their legacies. Bet that’ll raise a fuss for all the ones that know they won’t win big awards like mvp or dpoy by the end of the year. Now the only recognition you get for all your hard work if you’re not the absolute best player or defender that year is all-nba or all defense teams.
Better option- 1v1 like a hockey shoot out - the winner of tournament gets $1,000,000 - random fan the player picks gets a $1,000,000. - random viewer at home gets a million.... - do you know how many people would watch this to see who would win? And the players are so competitive ...1v1 brings out the DOG in you if your a real hooper.....
Who is this guy with Rob?! Dude continues to over talk Rob and cut him off!! I think he thinks this show is all about him. Dude is terrible! CLEARLY a DEI hire............
It’s pretty annoying all the complaints people have about the all-star game and the pro bowl. It’s called risk>reward. The players don’t owe the fans a super competitive game. Especially when it’s in the middle of the season. While everyone else in the league gets to take a week off to rest, these players are required to travel, do media and play in a game and treat it like it’s a game 7 finals? I couldn’t care less.
Lebron hasn't played a competitive game since he's been in the league. The wouldn't play the first 3 quarters then turn up in the 4th. Now they don't play at all.
The only way the AllStar game could work is they have to get rid of the 3-pointers. If they shoot a 3-pointer it will count as a -3. They're only allowed to shoot midrange jumpers, dunks, and layups. Let's see the players finally use their skills for once. Shooting all these 3-pointers is not showing skills. Bronny James shot 10/10 in 3-pointers during an NBA workout. Even Stephen A. Smith shot 17/17 in 3-pointers during a college pickup game in front of the head coach😅
Really need to get rid of conferences, alot of teams are being mishandled out of the playoffs change the court for ALL STAR GAME, ADD FIRE SPOTS IN THE MIDRANGE, WORTH MORE POINTS. GETTING STEALS N BLOCKS OPENS MORE FIRE SPOTS. OR DURATION OF THOSE SPOTS.
People are always complaining. When David Stern was hard on the players, people said he was racist. Now Adam is in charge, and he is a players commissioner, he is too soft. 🤦🏿
Rob never likes anything new or progressive in life. Once automobiles became mainstream rob would be that guy still on the horse holding onto the past like always.
What's progressive about about not trying hard to play an all star game the best in the world against the best play like it's a sixth grade scrimmage might as well do away will voting the game dunk contest all of it
@@draginslayver59my issue is that rob complains about the product but is opposed to literally any new idea of switching it up. There is no way for us to continue the traditional way, the only way to make it better is to make changes. That means changing format, rules, incentives etc etc we can’t continue to just say “ hey guys just play harder because in the 60’s we did” most of the players in the all star game view that whole weekend as a break anyways, they don’t care about promoting the league they just see it as time to rest before the second half of the season.
@@raystroman4473it needs to be a balance because ratings are low despite all the changes bein made plus if things need to be put in place for players to play hard then that’s not a traditional problem that’s a fundamental problem
Do like the MLB and have the game decide home court in the finals and most importantly have the teams wear the home and away jersey for the teams they play on.
thats not the point, the point is these are all stars. all stars you guys crush when they dont make it to the finals or win a ring. so now why would they get hurt in a all star game months before playoffs?
All these gimmicks they have to come up with to make multi millionaires play hard...Worst NBA era ever...
Tik Tok era. Smh
the ja morant/ edwards era. immature “ star” players
You make the players play hard by not having any guaranteed contracts ..
You make them EARN their money ...

Just cancel it. It won’t be missed.
Definitely will. U just made stripping a struggle in February 😂
How do they make simple things so complicated
Lol 😂
Because they have ulterior motives. They want to promote certain players and narratives.
They don’t want these ego centric players to be butt hurt their brand got hurt. It’s players and league at fault.

Cuz they are brainwashed kids and real fans don't have passion in anything else.

Who wants to get hurt in an All Star game. Just scrap the whole thing. Players are too valuable to get hurt in a game that doesn't matter
It’s become worse than the Pro Bowl at the end. Just scrap it. A bunch of spoiled brats who only care about money and have no love of the game smh
"Something so that the players will try harder." WHAT A JOKE!
All these gimmicks because Adam Silver just sucks as commissioner
once they rolled out this “ NBA CUP” i was done with the nba regular season
What talk should be talking about is how over priced the tickets are for such a lousy gameplay

The problem are the guaranteed contracts and the AAU culture of everybody is a friend or cool with the other. None of it matters anymore
The NBA doesn't want competition, or defense in the regular and postseason then expects them to play like that in the all-star games?! What a joke 😂
For Steph Curry to be on board with this format is spineless. The best players in the league should be standing up for the integrity of the game.
Just play East x West and the winner get home field in the finals like Baseball did in the past.
I think if u remove guaranteed contracts, the effort level will go up overall
Why even talk about the NBA when nobody is watching anymore?
i think its great still. Regular season is meh until like feb. Playoffs are 🔥
I paid for NBA League Pass for the season and now I regret doing it.
Doesn't get fixed if we don't acknowledge the problems.
Can't wait for Rob's next stand up comedy show!
Curry making everything a 3 point contest when there's already a 3point contest and don't nobody wanna compete
Back in the 90’s MJ would treat the all star as his stage, what happened to wanting to be the best

They'll do anything but pressure the players to play harder and care. They play harder in the pick-up games.
Because the audience in the parks looks more like them so some pride is involved.
it is shameful that the nba has to beg caitlin clark to participate at their all star weekend

Do like the MLB and have the game decide home court in the finals and most importantly have the teams wear the home and away jersey for the teams they play on.
NBA All-star game is going to be trash again!!! Damn this ish is sad af!!!
thats not the point, the point is these are all stars. all stars you guys crush when they dont make it to the finals or win a ring. so now why would they get hurt in a all star game months before playoffs?
