someone suggested on instagram, that they could ditch the skills challenge and instead have a one on one tournament, see who is the best individual player, i think that would be a pretty fun and competitive mini event to make the all star weekend more interesting.
Lean into the cool stuff the digital court can do. Have the 3pt line start normal, but expand every time someone makes a 3
Just play a normal basketball game! We have all fallen in love with the game because of the game as it is/was! Nobody needs moving three point lines, literally no real fan!
@@sebastianschwald1625 that’s what we’ve been doing and it’s not working! I watch plenty of normal games but only one ridiculous scoring fest All star game. Lean in!
@@Nick-zl5xf they're not playing a normal basketball game, though. they're on the court but they're not competing.
I just found out about this channel. I am so glad the Starters are back
Remove the game, have 4 events instead
- 1-on-1 challenge
- HORSE
- 3-pt contest
- Dunk contest
Everyone has to participate in two events. This way we remove the banality from the actual game itself while boosting star power in the events.
If players don't care about playing/don't want to play, just give us 5 all-stars and 2 reserves in a game to 21 so we get "close 4th quarter play" from start to finish. If players don't care playing the game, you can't complain about losing spots.
The players keep saying they don’t want to work on their break. But play their asses off and bitch if they don’t make an all star team cuz of contract incentives. They don’t care about the game, then take out the contract incentives. Easy fix
Make the All Star game 3v3. Each team has a different 3 on the court each quarter. Players only play 1 quarter each. Makes positions and matchups more interesting. Let them all have a little fun for a few minutes and by the time theyve had their fill, new quarter new people.
Make each quarter matter.
Id like a 3v3 tourney
The easiest way to fix the all star game is to change the contract incentives from making an all star team to winning the all star game.
Problem solved.
The All Star game was horrible. I watched the 1987 game. Unbelievable.
How can you make it competitive when Lebron is your example
THIS❗️🎯
There should be a NO SCORE ZONE... like too far from 3 pt line. Or 2 pts only..
I think we can go a little further than that, Skeets, but there is one problem with the Cancun bye-week idea: it won't work if it's East vs. Week. Let's pretend that one All-Star year has a conference represented by all twelve teams in a conference, one All-Star per team. If that were to happen, you may as well just give the whole western conference a week off. But if you go back to team captains where team affiliation is out of the question, then you have an "equal" amount of teams from both conferences to have that extra week. For context, the 2023 NBA All-Star Game team representatives were as follows: Team LeBron had 7 west and 4 east, Team Giannis had 5 west and 6 east; three teams overlapped (Kings, Grizzlies, Celtics). This year's All-Stars were represented by 10 teams in east and 8 in the west. The one All-Star per team quirk hasn't happened yet, but it could.
I like the idea of a reduced prize criteria for the winning team, in fact I could go further by making the All-Star Game count, but not for playoffs. The teams represented in the winning team earns an extra win for judgement awards such as league MVP, Sixth Man and Defensive Player Of The Year. The All-Star MVP gets a bonus win for their team's regular season record, and will be used to break any ties in the standings. So if you tie with another team with the same record and your team has an All-Star MVP, you will automatically take their spot, overriding division/conference/league tiebreaker rules. Now we have competition.
The fun part is a much harder pill to swallow, but they have to be delicate about it. One wrong move, and as Homer Simpson wisely said, "You'll turn the parade into a farce."
It's not on the league to fix it. First and foremost, the players need to give a shit
Winner gets paid, loser goes home with nothing. That will motivate them
Here idea rookies and softmores vs east and west clearly allstars are better skilled players but rookies might want show old timers up forcing them to play real basketball. Just swop from year to year one year west vs rookies next year west vs second year players and vice versa with east. Or usa vs world as your two options. Either way get game back with some pride
Leverage the EGO!
AS *MVP = Guaranteed **Invite for next year AS
- Veteran Stars can use it build legacy
- Young Stars can use to achieve incentives/bonuses on their contracts
*must be fr winning team
**minimum games required to "accept" invite
Should be like the old MTV Rock and Jock games with like 5 and 10 point shots and yeah, play to a finite score. The League isn't in the same position it was 30 years ago so these weird arguments that it should be a competitive game when it never was, it never was competitive, you got effort in the final 4-6 minutes some years. League should be far more concerned about its Regular season and keeping the next generation invested in 82 games. I don't know if the generation that can't afford real estate is gonna prioritize league passes and season tickets. Competitive interest for the season has to be there before the All Star game which is just a gimmick. In the era when cable television was new, sure, it was a showcase, in the modern age of social media, no, it's a gimmick. I've been watching basketball for 40 years, I remember 3 all star games in Shaq's first, Magic's last, and Michael's last. This bizzaro nostalgia for the actual game doesn't jive with my memory. Selective dunk and 3pt contests were always more memorable, and seemed to hold (old) media interest much longer. Introduce a horse competition or expand the shooting competitions. Retire the dunk contest or make it an invitational showcase for professional dunkers if players don't want to compete in it. I'd take a competitive foot race from players over the dunk contest at this point. A vertical jump contest. Hell, tug of war, make it a field day, it should be a fun thing with players more as celebrities than as athletes.
Well the nba all star game is too similar to actually games right. Whether you believe if players play defense in the regular season it was clear that these players dont give effort on that end. I remember seeing the score for 2003 game you were not gunna see that kind of offense in that era
Bring back defense in the all star game
