    They had to bench Westbrook so he'd stop scoring and Davis could get MVP

    The Houston Rockets and Denver Nuggets had 24 threes in a game, Cavs had 25 in the playoffs.

    West have 21, East have 22 right now in an almost 200 point game.

    Also, to the people complaining about no defense all-star game; it's a celebration, not a competition.

    Usually they play a bit tight (NBA light level) for at least 5 minutes down the stretch in the 4th Q but today it was all just fooling around 24 hr fitness style

    i was hoping after last year they might try to play some "keep it to 150" kind of defense, but it stayed ridiculous. the players have to actually play for an asg to be slightly entertaining. i don't know what you do to motivate guys who want to probably just stay healthy but you have to do something.

    Yeah, in the past, the D would tighten up in the 4th quarter, especially if it's a close game. Tonight, they didn't seem to care.

    Westbrook was more efficient scoring than ad for the people complaining about Westbrook jacking up so many shots.
