    First off, this might turn out to be the lamest All-Star weekend of All-Time. The three point shooting contest field is lackluster with a bunch of guys no one really cares about outside of Love. The dunk contest may go down in history as the worst ever.

    The thing I'm looking forward to, which has been fun recently, is the rookie-soph game. They just did the draft on NBA TV with Shaq and Chuck.

    Both Kawhi and Tiago were in the game and they were two of the last 6 picks

    Charles got both Kawhi (who was one of the last 4 taken and drawn out of a box to Charles) and Tiago (who was the last pick before names got thrown in the box).

    This should be a fun game though and Tiago will be paired with Cousins so that should be pretty damn nice.

    I think this is the event of the weekend I'm most excited about as well. I like Chucks team better, probably because of the silver and black representing.

    Splitter is the best player in the rising star challenge

    For those wondering, Tiago Splitter was picked dead last, before they put the final 4 names in a random drawing (Kawhi Leonard, Tristan Thompson, Brandon Knight, Evan Turner).

    Why is Blake Griffin in this game??
    Because his rookie year was missed completely due to injury therefore it did not count. Last year, even though drafted a year prior, was counted as his rookie season since it was his first game. This is his sop re year.

    I realize that, my point is that he's in the actual all star game, putting him in this game is stupid. Takes away from some poor kid that should get his five seconds of fame. It's dumb to put him in this game IMO

    I don't think the question was regarding eligibility. I think the question is regarding WHY he would play this game when he's already going to be in the ASG on Sunday. Tim was selected for the R/S game as a rookie, but excused when he was elected to the ASG.

    That's different though. Wow, one things certain, you were right, lamest all star weekend ever. Only looking forward to the rising stars game, and even that's taking a hit with Powder Griffin playing

    As long as lin is present, ratings won't take a hit.
