The Basketball Diaries

East 134 West 128

You know, I don't much care about the NBA All Star game. The only part of the festivities I ever really enjoy are the dunk and (to a lesser degree) three-point contests. After witnessing Dwight Howard's performance in the dunk contest on Saturday night, I knew nothing could happen in the actual All-Star Game that would compare, so I didn't watch. Still, I bet I can tell you what happened. The best basketball players in the country did a whole bunch of crazy shit. There were a lot of alley-oops, highlight dunks, and no defense whatsoever. Am I right? I know that LeBron scored 27 points for the East, two of which came in the final minute when he dunked on the entire Western Conference, and was named MVP. James also had 8 rebounds and 9 assists.

And none of it was as cool as this.
