Yes.

This years All-Star game is bound to be one of the most lackluster in recent memory. I can’t remember the last time I’ve been so underwhelmed at the sheer names on the rosters alone. Not even to mention the lopsided teams. This lack of entertainment value came as a bit of a surprise to me but I was able to break it down.

Here are the 3 reasons why this All-Star game is the opposite of “Must Watch TV”

1: Pure Lack of Talent

This year, stars like Curry, KD, Kyrie, Oladipo & Klay are all out with injuries. Two of which, are top 5 players in the NBA. Not seeing Steph and Klay launch 40 footers and the KD drama is just upsetting. These five players alone would be a better team than Team Giannis but that’s for my next point.

2: GIANNIS PICKED THE WORST TEAM EVER

I don’t know what happened here, at all. On paper this isn’t even close. How did he not come out with Kwahi, Davis, Harden or Doncic??? That’s insane! Can Giannis team win? 100% but that’s only Bc the whole thing is bs anyway. But seriously, like it’s so lopsided that it makes you wonder if he has beef/ other agendas with the players he picked. Was he blind folded? Does he owe someone money? Was he muddying the water to guarantee an All Star MVP?? Did Giannis do the 100% chemistry thing in FIFA?? Idk but something is fishy. I’m sure Giannis has forgotten more basketball knowledge than I’ll ever know, but I can personally guarantee a loss for his slapdick team.

3: The Kobe Effect

This years All Star game will feature a pretty shitty end game in order to honor Kobe. Am I for honoring Kobe? Absolutely. I think they should change the goddamn logo, but this? Nah, this ain’t it. It’s over complicated and not fulfilling at all.

All in all, the NBA All Star weekend is fun, it’s highlighted by the skills comp, and the dunk contest. The All Star game is just a background contest for charity (which is great).

Prediction: Lebron 188 | Giannis 160
