If I were Marc, I'd shoot it every freakin' time I touch the ball.

With Harden, Curry, Westbrook, Durant, etc....he may not get many chances!

Congrats and good luck Marc!!!!!

This game is so stupid!!!

5:00 in and I've already turned it off.

What a joke

8 free throws for both teams.

Is it any different than any other All star game ?

Every year people seems surprised to learn for the first time what the All Star game is.

This. It baffles me that year after year people complain about it.

It's a freaking all star game.

Didn't is used to be more competitive instead of a glorified open workout?

the final was 79-75 in 1953

The 2 point % last night was >75%.

I was looking at some box scores from the 90's era. 52 FT in the '96 game.
FG% <50% for both teams in the '97 game.

There seemed to have been a real switch in the 2015 game. The last three years, the teams have combined to take 133 three pointers and 10 ft's a game.

With 2014 as the "transition year." (100 3 pointers and 21 ft's).

2011-2013 hadan average of about 60 3 pointers a game and 40 ft's.

I rarely watch it anymore. It's become more of a continuation of the 3-pt contest and the slam dunk contest since no one plays defense. I did turn it late last night to see if they would hit 200 though.

haven't watched it in years

Marc was solid with a near triple dub

It has definitely seemed to get worse the past couple of years.

Its the home run derby for basketball.
