    This might be the first time in the history of this event that the Dunk Contest is the least hyped event of all the events.

    Also, not one Rocket in any of the non-ASG events. Interesting.

    Even when some of the events haven't lived up to the hype, I don't think I have ever been bored with All-Star weekend in general. Who is playing in the Celebrity game? I love the Celebrity game.

    Will hater Lebron pick Harden? I'm on this conspiracy that Lebron dislikes Harden and ignores anything he does that gets attention.

    Giannis has already said that he is picking curry first bc curry did that to him last year.

    *Disclaimer for the outrage to come for harden not being picked first

    This draft is so lame, but I enjoyed it. All the players need to be present. This is not what people mean by televising the draft. We want to see the reactions.
