I am a big hater of ALl Star games as it is because just about everyone
carries on like this.  i don't think AW should be blamed overly for
showboating in an all star game as it is after all just a mojor showboat of
a game.

The old NHL format for an All star game would be better, with the Champion
team of the NBA playing a best of of the rest of the leaugue as a preview to
the season.  This is the only all star format that I could ever have the
least bit of interest in.  Chief and me see eye to eye here...
