The best “format” is to put the G-League all stars against the NBA all stars. Them G-Leaguers will put up a fight and the NBA players will actually play defense because they don’t wanna potentially get embarrassed and crossed up or put on a poster.
The best way to fix the all star game is to make it like the mlb all star game where whichever conference wins that's who gets home court advantage in the finals and winning team gets 1 million per player and losing team gets 0. And mvp gets 1.5 million

Gil’s idea of 4 teams of 6 all stars isn’t bad, 2 teams each play 1 12min quarter, that’s 1 half, then after halftime, the 2 winners play 2 12min quarters for the cash prize 🤷🏻♂️ can also add 4 more all stars that the players vote for, so each team has 7 guys, that way the guys that get snubbed don’t get snubbed 👉🧠
The new media is losing its luster former players make too many excuses for players…I’m getting tired of hearing it. If they don’t wana play then we shouldn’t wana watch.
They should implement the 1s King of the Court absolutely. Silver should add the stipulation that your selection as an all star requires you to participate in the event. Instead of an all star game, you get an all star 1s Tournament. From there, you can have a definitive “best player in the league” answer
I wouldn't mind watching the TOP players who aren't scared to do the 1 vs 1 game, to determine who the ACTUAL best player is at that position. It could be used to determine who the All NBA Players actually are. It would force players to be more competitive because many of them have contracts that give bonuses based on All NBA.
This would be good in theory if the players didn’t already load manage and don’t either, literally not play or not try when they do play during ASG. So let’s go back to WEST v EAST but add some new better incentive to the allstar game . I personally feel players should be forced to play 82 games ( we all get paid way less and have to work everyday ) that in turn give you opportunities to reward them with $ , days off and some kind of bonus to their contracts for winning in season tournaments, ASG . You win you get some days off for your organization type of incentive among other things
I think Gil forgot sometimes that it’s the fans input that matters, we’re the consumers buying the product, so you should try and tailor what the fans/consumer wanna see. Honestly All-Star weekend really hasn’t been fun since 2016-2017years since then it’s just been a plummeting
The nba needs to team up with ice cube for the all-star game add the big three and keep everything the same but select the best nba dunker of the nba season
I think Gil's idea is dumb... $200k ain't nothing for All Stars... imagine if the All Stars lose to the Rising Stars... they don't want that embarrassment...

Do a 3 on 3 single elimination tournament with the 24 all stars selected. Choose the teams on the spot like a pick up game and the team that wins gets a million and the runner up gets a half a million. Expand the WNBA vs NBA three point comp and make that 3 on 3 with the team total the winner. The slam dunk contest is over. We've seen all there is to see.

Put something meaningful on the line for the players. East vs. West with home court advantage in the finals to the winner, or something along those lines. Pay them bonuses like Gil said... Something to encourage it to be competitive. Wish it didn't have to be that way, but that's the way it is 🤷♂️
The problem is we have put such an emphasis on winning championships that players aren't invested in an exhibition game in February. This is why the Pro Bowl happens after the playoffs, and even then, players for the SB teams don't participate. The idea of the USA vs. the world won't work either because guys like Luka and Jokic don't take it seriously anymore.
I dont think you'd have to worry about the world players in a USA vs World game, its the americans egos that'll be hurt if they lose so they wont take it seriously
Do the math. These guys are making $400-500K+ per regular season game on $200M+ contracts and $50-100M+ in endorsements. Little $200K bonuses mean nothing to them. They need to find a way to have incentives impact players' team success on the season, that's the only way they're gonna care again.
I like this this is going to make the All-Star game better this is why I like Adam silver he always makes good changes where is willing to try this will make the rising star vs rookie game even more competitive
That actually makes it way worse that the rising stars don't get to choose their team.. so basically an All-Star versus the second year player.. that sounds dumb, unless there's a handicap, say 25 points or so
Why can't they just make the NBA Cup Finals the All Star game Sunday. It would make the All Star weekend mean something and give validity to the NBA Cup.
They did that already where the winner of the quarter wins a prize but they all are multi millionaires and the prize money not really enough to make them play hard
A 1v1 tournament would be crazy! When players turn games into 1v1s, IE- KD/AE in the playoffs last year, shit gets spicy!!! I’m interested to see how many people would want that smoke!

Everybody in the chat that has a job knows you are least productive on the day before you leave for vacation, some people even leave work early. Why not make the last day of games Saturday. Players get Sunday-Wednesday off. Then allstars start reporting to allstar city on Thursday and Friday. Saturday is the events. And Sunday is the game. Games resume on Wednesday. I think guys being fresh off vacation will bring a better effort as well
So Gil suggested giving them more money? That's why they are already lazy because most players are spoiled. How about players get paid per every game they play in the season to actually make them earn it.
They should do a 24 man 1v1 tournament..5 dribbles..have a Front court bracket and a Back court bracket. Your Front court and Back court champ win 1 mil…and play each other in the final for a grand prize of 5 mil….

So they changed it to the rising star format lame as hell
All star game died when Kobe retired. He's the only guy that played each one like he cared and it brought out the best in everyone. Maybe Giannis is one that still does
What about the guy with the most points in a allstar game and the first ever recipient of kobe award😂😂😂u know the young celtic goat
Let's not act like the ASG was good when Kobe was around
you clearly started watching ball after kobe retired
@DDON-s2q watching since 1995 lol. Everyone was complaining about the ASG bring a joke since like 2005
yeah of course he had to prove that he could play,it was all new to kobe because he was on the bench for 2yrs before he played,so yeah he took it serious trying to prove something where lebron just cruising watch him play hard
