    Wondering how many people out there were watching it this year. I've watched them every year for as long as I can remember, but just don't feel like it this year.

    I started to vote, but realized you made the vote public and changed my mind.

    Rome came on HBO. Rome's better than watching Amare and Marion cherry pick and throw down bland dunks all game.

    yes but it was boring as crap. kobe had 40 reverse dunks. amarie and marion had another 80 dunks.

    too much of anything is bad. here's how no defense looked like.

    p.s. watch rockets game when mcgrady is out for no offense. :D

    watched it all

    game suffered from the lack of PGs. just in terms of pace and some sloppy play...still got the dunks, but more out of cherry picking and crappy D

    as long as there is a Rocket playing, I'll watch.

    They do seem to get more and more boring every year, this year was only notable for Tmac deciding to play the facilitator role he does here.
    He was the best point guard on the floor.

    anyone want this one?
    Im about to start editing, and would like an idea of if its worth it.

    Wow. Let me count the ways how Wayne Newton Sucks.

    1. Fake Bake
    2. Fake no wrinkle face.
    3. Fake performance.
    4. Fake Teeth.

    Damn, he even butchered his own song. I think his lips are still moving right now even though he finished singing 3 hours ago.

    seriously i am happy amare didnt win it to inflate his already large ego

    looking at the box score i have no idea how he had 3 assists I only counted him passing the ball 3 times and assisting on only one shot. the guy also had 5 fouls. i think he is slowly taking the mantle of my most hated player (the guy is good for sure but just dont like him)

    tmacs 11 assists and 8 points in 18 minutes was pretty impressive though. he could have easily scored more but was content on being the pg. i do think d'antoni made bad use of minutes giving mainly to the bench and not the starters (outside of kobe) other than kobe every bench player not named okur played more minutes than the other starters.

    i'm glad tmac didnt try to go nuts for no reason but i voted to see the starters play, not the bench full of 2nd string all-stars that only made the team since there were a bunch of injuries. (yes I am looking at you josh howard, ray allen and okur)

    If you haven't started yet, I say don't bother. Other people may want it though, so I don't know.

    I watched the first half, and that was more than enough. If the players don't care enough to try to win, and they are getting paid, then why should we care enough to tune in?

    I Used to love it. But the last couple of years it is just boring. I like a real game much more.

    cause u get sick of exchanging baskets for 48 mins. if the east had played 1 min of defense they would have made this game interesting.

    I watched the half time show and like three minutes of the 3rd quarter. I quit watching once I realized the west was gonna blow out the east. I dunno the ASGs have been kind of boring lately. I love watching all the other stuff though.
