You may get your wish as this year looks to be the most horrendous yet. This could be the nail in the coffin. There used to be a time though when real celebs like Timberlake, Reggie Bush, Nelly, Ice Cube, Jamie Foxx, Tim McGraw, Bill Belamy, Frankie Muniz, Chris Tucker, Wilmer Valderrama, etc. would come out and you'd have celeb coaches/owners like Diddy, Gabrielle Union, Queen Latifah, Ashton Kutcher, etc.

They couldn't ball, but at least they would go out, have some fun, not take themselves too seriously, and provide some great moments (JT crossover, Nelly spin-cycle move, TO's throwdowns) and more often than not, some unintentional comedy.

Over time they added WNBA players, more ex-NBA players, and Globetrotters. Basically people who do this for a living but aren't as good as NBA players. That's when it got bad, IMO.

In my opinion the whole All-Star weekend is a joke now... Remember that the NBA used to have ACTUAL STARS in the dunk contest and 3-point shootout, but the All-Star game itself is okay for now...unlike the events leading up to it.

As Long as the dunk contest and 3pt shootout is exciting. IDC who's in it.

This is exactly how I feel. I thought it was very entertaining before, but now it's a bunch of Globetrotters and stuff and it's not as interesting. I'm also a big fan of the celebrity softball game that they do on ESPN

I can't believe how jaded everyone on this site is regarding ASW. If it's hot, watch it. If it's wack, change it. I don't get where all of this bitter "back in the days" talk comes from. It's an exhibition weekend! Not like it's replacing a real event. It's just meant to be fun. The only real competition is the 3pt shootout and (possibly) the fourth quarter of the ASG. If it sucks, so what? This is all about most players resting, and a few guys getting the opportunity to show off.

It's where we get to see people do stuff they don't normally do, like D-12 do crossovers, or Lebron go into the post (bazinga!).

I agree with your overall point concerning all-star weekend, but as far as the celeb game is concerned, if you look at the rosters, you can see the decline in superstar quality over the years.

As far as the "if it's wack, change it" I totally agree except in doing the research to find these rosters I realize that I've been watching this event since 2003! That's 7 years of the celeb all-star game. This all started with me just wondering, what year was it that Justin Timberlake (who I am a big fan of) played in the celeb game. Then I realize it was 2002. I'm going to watch what could be a potential train wreck out of pure loyalty.
