The Bucks owners got the new stadium in part because they sold Wisconsin on them bringing the All Star game to Milwaukee years ago. People have been talking about how they failed on that front already lol.

[*]I like the Elam Ending for the most part.
[*]I don't really mind the fact that they don't split across conference lines anymore; I imagine the draft specials and whatnot bring in additional revenue for the league. But personally, I preferred the days where players wore their own team's uniform and just played East vs. West.
[*]The Skills competition is cool in theory but the actual event is lame as hell.
[*]I admittedly don't even really try but I don't really understand why they made the 3 point contest more confusing than simply having one money ball at each location.
[*]My preference for the dunk contest would be to have all-star players participate. Short of that, I'd rather see guys like Mac McClung compete even if he's not really an NBA player rather than guys that are barely noteworthy NBA players and also aren't all that exciting dunking the ball. Like, props to Trey Murphy for giving it a solid effort but he's not really the kinda guy that should ever be competing in a dunk contest, and he was the runner-up. I still can't believe how bad Jerricho Sims was; what could he have possibly been thinking when he started out with the double elbow dunk and followed it up with a single elbow dunk?
