They keep coming up with all these new ways, but the media are the ones that drove it to what it is now. All star MVP used to mean something until they made the narrative basically championships or nothing else matters. That’s why the regular season is the way it is and the All-Star game.
If you’re going to blame the media for players not caring, then that just tells me how soft this generation of players are. Top athletes in the world shouldn’t let average built, non athletic media members effect their drive
Hot take: Once the players stopped playing hard in a perfectly reasonable format, no format change was going to work. If these grown adults can't find the motivation to respect the fans and the game by putting out some effort, format becomes irrelevant. Making every incentive about money is just going to inflate ticket prices more and further alienate players from regular fans.
@@nephiking3688 we used to watch and look forward to the game but when the player's change their mindset thats when we stated not to care bout the game

@@RichardTrim09 Why do y'all be taking shit that don't apply to you the wrong way? You know THEY are rich af, so Jeff's statement makes total sense when you take it as he said.
@@RichardTrim09 Because he knows how “those” type of people take it, and he’s trying to lessen the effect. You talking about the same B hen who be talking shit fr keep that in mind. He’s just being professional right there.
My solution is to just make it two teams, whether it be east versus West or just go back to picking teams. Have $1 million prize but for every 10 points over 100 the other team scores the winning teams prize money drops in half. This way players are incentivized to play defense because if they get these 150.- 160 point games then the players are only gonna be winning like $20,000 versus 1 million or 500,000
I don't blame the NBA for switching it up because for the last couple of years the players are literally bull$hittn during the All-Star game and it is definitely not competitive like it used to be back in the 90s and early 2000s
😂😂😂 I mean why are the players complaining when they don't even play hard anymore. This generation destroyed the all Star game and dunk contest. Nobody wants to see 198-205 scoring.
Bro yall complaining about the format & how it used to, but the PLAYERS are the cause of this..Im wit Stephen A Smith on this, “Yall give more effort in summer runs than the All-Star game!” Like at least give us that effort. All-Star weekend used to be something we looked forward to because of the competitiveness, but these new age niggas soft af. Making waayy more money, but putting in 25% of effort as the early 2000 era. Shit is terrible!
the narrative that the 90s and 00s didn’t have shitty all star games regularly is quite hilarious, the same way everyone tries to make it seem like david stern was this amazing commissioner. when he did a lot of nasty shit and had his hands cleaned (betting refs) while all of it was under his watch
The shitty 90's and 00's all-star games had players that at least pretended to play hard ... nowadays it's a glorified shoot around with absolutely zero defensive effort.
Make the All Star Game East vs West and have the reward be the Winning Conference will have Home Court Advantage in the NBA Finals. If 1 conference is clearly "tougher" it will be a way to reward them for having more losses than a team in the other conference that was "easier"
Athletes aren’t of touch…they get paid because that is market value. Stop watching if you don’t want them to get paid. If they aren’t getting paid you best billionaire owners aren’t giving money back.

Hopefully this lights a fire under the players, All Star Sunday used to be reserved for the 24 best NBA players, now they sharing the night with rookies and sophomores to try and get them to compete, sad.
@HobieMorales With the starting lineup being SGA, Luka, Giannis, Wemby and Jokic, I'd think it would be competitive. You don't national pride would set in for team USA?
The nba needs to make it east vs west like the old days, but give the winning conference’s team, a two game advantage in determining who gets home court in the finals. Say Celtics end with 63 wins, Okc 62 wins, Okc gets home court in the finals.
Make the G-League All-Stars roster play the NBA roster. Offer cash incentives to the players for dunks, steals, posters, rebounds and scoring. The NBA players aren’t hungry enough so them G-leaguers will bring out the dawg or they’ll get embarrassed.
All star game hasn’t been the same since Kobe retired 😬🙏 and also the players gotta want to actually play n not just be about letting each other do flashy dunks, and an all star game brought us masked Kobe 💯

@ Same as Embiid but you didn’t say anything about him. It’s their choice to play for either side, so why are questioning why I put Paolo on the international side?
Y’all think the problem was the players weren’t getting paid enough for playing during all star break? It’s a soft league with overpaid players due to big TV contracts. They don’t play hard unless they feel they could lose something worthwhile. Most players don’t care, so the fans stopped caring too about the all star game
Whoever they got running the nba now ain’t saving it wit the shenanigans … get some players wit some talent character and get back to that 80’s 90’s 2k ball.
The context was you can’t get a real car then he mentioned an old school and a Bentley lmao he outta touch if you can’t get a old school with 125k you just getting finessed lol
@ 🤷🏾♂️ that wasn’t but can’t argue with your truth. Yeah, that’s valid but still he’s referring to auctions like in Money Talks, again from the context of NBA players aka Millionaires and believe me I’m no where near making good money but I’m not finna act like bruh ahh taking shots at people with less money, just speaking on a different class, get mad at the system not the way a 🥷 talk
Ish wouldn’t happening if the players would play harder or at least a lil defensive 😳 .. One of the many reasons why I love Westbrook not his style of play but his engine , his heart , his drive , tht dog in him to with a lot of effort ! Hell or even act Jimmy Butler during the playoffs 🤣😂🤣 dude literally has a turn/off switch
Nah forreal though you can change up the format all you want. The fans didn’t get tired of the format. They got tired of how the game was being played. It’s a long shoot around😂. Nobody wants to spend their night watching that even if it’s their favorite players. A cash prize or whatever. Something that the players value that’ll make them competitive. With as much money as the league makes I’m saying every team represented by the winning all star team(east or west not this new stuff😂) gets 10 mil per player. The NBA can afford it. So every west coast team that wins the. Every player on all of those rosters gets a 10 mil bonus. The players will play out their minds because not only if they lose do they lose out on money but the rookie or role player is gonna be in they ear making sure they lock in and get them a check. That’s what you need. Something that will make their teammates actually pissed off a bit if they play at half speed and half effort in the game. “Like bro it might not matter to you but I was gonna buy my parents a mansion with 10 mil so explain why you were walking up and down the court”😂. Yeah they gonna have a conversation. And if you lose then you lose but you better be taking it seriously.
Damn all the fans want to see is a quality game... but the guys already making millions can't take single game serious even though bout to make more in a night then what most people make in a year...great show, bad take
Yall sensitive AF in these comments lol people in the world have money and expensive tastes. Can’t take it personal that theirs are higher than yours 😂
What is he on lol what are you even buying for 125k that isn't crazy to take care of. Most Americans make less than half of that in a year lmao they can't even afford the maintenance on a 125k car.
I love Kobe but he took part in many bullshit uncompetitive all star games lol this remembering the old days of all star games is nonsense. It’s the same then as now. If it happens to be close in the fourth, you’ll get a good finish. First 3 quarters is nonsense
