Credit at Commissioner of NBA Adam Server for his determination to try in new All-Star star follows the Epic Snoze Pest.

The only thing, may need to beat a drawing board again.

The NBA All-Star competition, launched on Sunday and filed four separate groups, received very unpleasant updates from players and fans. Three groups are combined with NBA All-Stars. Fourth? The “rising stars” of league – therefore, mainly, rookies.

Draymond Green, former TNT critic time during the event, did not hold him for his exam.

“We receive treatment of a group of Olympics playing with a group of U-19,” said I was green. “Come, what do we do? This is funny.”

Here are four questions following the first year of a new format.

1. What was hot of rookies?

Undoubtedly could have a valid point. What are rookies doing Court on a night-based night stars? It was amazing. It could feel good.

But there is one benefit: It may be motivated superstars to play hard. After all, they did not want to lose a crowd of boys who could find time to play in their groups.

The missionaries include the “rising stars” against “OGS” was a contest of Past Formers with nine leaderships, five obligations and a group that lasted about two digits. Compare that with Championship game, who put all the stars, saw “OGS” earned about 18 points “global stars.” Lakers Rookie Dalton Knecht Said the “Rising Stars” Made The Good Guy Like Steph Curry, Kyrio Tatum, Damian Lillard and James Harden.

“They were so hard clashing boards, playing defense, so they were trying to win,” Knewt said.

That would be true. But although it was more competitive, it was not more exciting. Fans want to view their favorite players against each other, unlike watching their favorite players play a little harder against the 19 years of age.

Said TNT’s Kenny Smith: “I think they will change the format behind.”

2. What went wrong?

There were many kinks in this new manner. Among them: Players have found no chance to warm up well. Anthony Edward, who has a groin injury, said he decided to stay all the star tournament because he could not go to his pregame process. When asked if he liked a new format, he did not hesitate.

“When I tell the truth, no,” he said. “Only because you didn’t get a lot of warmth. That was another reason I could play. My groin was abused and I didn’t get a lot of the big fan.”

Another problem? There have been many entertainment playing method. Kevin Hart spoke very loudly, including the cracking joke when Shaquille O’Neal ‘was dressed as a porn director. “And during the Championship game, the play was formed about 20 minutes – with” International stars “11-1 – While TNEAL, Charles Barkley, Kenny Barkson and Ernie Johnson They are respected by calling their last game on the network. (The “within the NBA” Crew will move to Espn next season.)

It goes without saying players who are not thanking additional suspension.

“At first, you are strong, adrenaline goes,” said Donovan Mitchell. “Then you always stays 30-45 minutes. That was difficult, honesty to you ..”

3. What about one single competition in the future?

While many players encouraged returning to East VS. West, fans would like to see one tournament. Do you think you’re watching Lebron James and Steph Curry walking to each other? Or Kevin Durant plays Giannis AntetoKounpo?

Some players seem to be open for it possible.

When Eddlel was asked if he was willing to participate in one party, he said, “Hell yes.”

Is there anyone to beat you?

“I don’t know,” said Edward. “I don’t think so. So, they need to do that to happen.”

Giannis Aketokounpo also said he would be in that competition type.

“If I had the opportunity to play each person, I would love to do it,” AnseCetokoBophyo said. “Whatever it can make the weekend be more fun, more interesting to viewers, followers.”

Kevin Durant refused the idea that players would argue with such tournament because it could harm their pride.

“We found our pride and put in line every night, man,” said Durant. “Someone will be taken, falling on top, will be ‘in the prominence.’ I don’t think that will be the reason why the boys don’t play. I think that can be a strong sense. We’ll see what formatteth. “

4. Linda, where was Lebron James?

At Jacob’s conference before the Sunday game, he said he would not play because of his foot and his foot. It was the first time James missed a star star and snatched his string of accuracy.

When he was released, Jacob admitted that he wanted to protect his body before the lakers tried to make funFF Run. Lakers, shocked the basketball country by obtaining Donic Luke Donic, currently in the Fifth of the Western Conference and a record 32-20.

Thus, the league face always tried to give his group the best rifle of competition.

“With 30 games left us trying to make playoff push in the wild, wild, I felt like it was so important to me to take care of and I mean what’s up to [down the stretch]”Said James.
