    Im so pumped! Living in Orlando im so excited about this! The new arena they are building is crazyyy...i can post pics i took of it..it won't be open till next season but its just so much better than the one they have no...basically because the one now has been around since 1989 lol

    Orlando will definitely be a good spot to host it...I will definitely be there!

    It's about time they build a new arena, the old one was severely outdated.

    Hope they change the floor design too.

    Never liked it.

    It puts the Toyota Center to shame.

    BTW, when was the last time the ASG was held in Orlando?

    It doesn't look as impressive from the outside. I guess the design just doesn't really stand out from my perspective.

    Now will Dwight finally get his revenge on Nate in the dunk contest?

    I really, REALLY don't want to see Nate Robinson win the contest again.

    It was extremely awesome the first time he won. The second time, it was like, yay! The third time? Ew.

    I wouldn't mind if Howard won again, but there needs to be more life in these contests. It's the only thing worth watching on Saturday night.

    In 1992, Magic was retired, but the fans voted him to be a starter, and he played, and then he was the MVP of that all-star game.
    He played amazing.
