Thoughts on the NBA All Star Game

Since the All Star game is tonight, I thought that I would make a thread to share some thoughts on the game. Personally, I think the NBA's version of the All Star Game is a huge waste of time. Although most All Star games are the same way, at least other professional sports All Star games have some meaning or are at least more entertaining. For example, I really like how baseball has added some meaning to theirs by setting it up so that the winning league gets home field advantage for the World Series. I also really enjoyed how hockey made theirs 3-3 instead of the normal 5-5 because it maximized the goal scoring.

I don't mean to say that all of All Star Weekend is a waste of time, I really enjoy the Saturday night skills challenge but I just wish that the NBA could make their game mean something like baseball's does.
