    Personally, I think we won't get it in 2013. I think it's going to be pushed back to 2014. Orlando will get 2013.

    2012 will be missed due to lockout

    He meant to say that how would be with Orlando in 2012 when they host the ASG and with us in 2013 when we host the ASG.

    Philly was supposed to hold it but it was locked out, so they pushed it to a future date.

    Same scenario here. It's not like we never had a lockout and then a delayed start before folks

    Probably not, maybe if they play their cards right they might air it on BSPN at 3-4 am some day

    they will televise it, but everytime a rockets player enters the game, they will go to commercials.

    This will be embarrassing if the Rockets don't have an allstar.

    I guess you just have to be online or at the box office window the minute they go on sale in order to not pay several hundred a seat. Then if you're lucky, buy an extra 3 or 4 tickets and sell them for double or triple what you paid (still below market value) and thus your tickets/food/parking will be free. :cool:

    The host city should get to decide, or at least have a say in the activities of all-star weekend.
    That way we can inject new ideas and the NBA doesn't get bad rap for failed experiments.
