    Do you think All-Star Game Will be a Disappointment?

    Anyone else thinking the All-Star game is going to be a major disappointment? They are supposedly getting a record number of people for a basketball game and you have to think that it is a possibility that a record number of people will watch just because a record number will attend. So, the question is will it be a dissappointment. Most people look for high scoring and highlight plays in a All-Star contest, so with that being the gauge will it be a dissappointment. Who are the highlight play guys other than maybe Lebron and for someone that will not even enter the dunk contest you wonder how much of a highlight reel is he concerning himself with being.

    The only thing exciting about the all star weekend is the Rook/Soph game.

    It would better if lebron didn't back out of the dunk comp and kobe wasn't sitting out, but as a whole the allstar weekends have been going down hill.

    I wonder will there will be a prop for MVP? Lebron will most definitely win it, only other person I would even thinking about putting money on is Durant

    Hard to be disappointed when my expectations are so low.

    If there's a big enough line Bosh, being a home town boy, might be worth a flyer for MVP.

    I expect nothing, but Rucker style ball play.

    I will be on the OVER for a regular sized bet, and will see you at the window.

    Crazy how people expect to be able to see a basketball game in nosebleed seats made for a football game.

    The players will look like Ants, unless you look at the biiiggg screen the whole time.

    I think they will have the bigscreen thing going, but I'm sorry I can't see how that is more comfortable than watching in your own home. I guess some people just love to say they were there

    theres a chance it wont be all bad, all stars might lift and put on a show for the fans to make up for the lack of effort in the dunk comp.

    can only hope

    I personally don't think it could get any worse than the dunk contest... That was pathetic, sad, and disappointing. Good thing TNT has Charles.

    All star games don't interest me. No one is out there trying to do anything other than not get hurt.

    Hopefully not, nut judging by how the dunk competition and everything else was, it'll prolly be pretty shitty.

    Makes the game more interesting. I'd have to hope no one bets this for anything more than a couple of bucks.
