Unique yet common sense sports opinions

I'm going with the written word this week.

192-182. That is not a basketball game. The NBA All-Star game has become a real live video game which is why I had no interest in watching it. At the risk of sounding like a cranky old man, I don't find that entertaining.  
I sampled by watching some of the Rising Stars game and they had no interest in playing defense with barely two guys crossing half court on d in transition. Maybe millennials are on board with what amounts to a fashion show. Until they put some real competition back into it, why have this game in the first place. While no one wants to see any injuries occur, you know the old adage that when you play not to get hurt is when you get hurt. I know this is an exhibition and shouldn't be treated like a playoff game but hopefully The Association will find a way to get this back to a game the players will have some pride to actually compete in.
