2025 NBA All-Star Game Archives

NBA eyeing 2026 All-Star Game modeled on NHL’s 4 Nations

"Of course we took note of the great success the NHL had with their national team competition as their All-Star festivities."

"The talking heads were talking their heads off."

"We don’t have to televise that thing anymore. I’m not even upset."

"The idea that the NBA is getting put down and denigrated because of what the NHL did. I don't get it."

"You got to show up. You got to take that on. I’m sick and tired of making athletes greats, all-time greats, that aren’t the best examples!"

It's the second least-watched NBA All-Star Game of all-time, trailing only 2023's event.

"...as often happens with Draymond, while being correct, his delivery of the information is so poorly done that it's lost."

"That kind of took the gas out of everything for a little bit"

"Don't cry about something that you had a hand in making happen in the first place."

"Cancel All-Star weekend and let’s just give everybody a break since we’re so miserable around this time."

"It was the complete opposite of the NBA All-Star Game."

"I love expectations and having something to play for, so he's lighting a fire for sure."

"You know you're not gonna play; why do you block somebody else from playing?"

"That is the egregious part of all of this — the fact that it was necessary."

"Please take a moment to tell the people how it feels to know you're going home and to know that it's over."

"Who is all this weird NBA All-Star Game stuff FOR?"

"Don't act like he's mad that they trying to use rookies... we're doing every type of trick to make this weekend exciting."

"Because ratings are down, because the game's bad, we're bringing in Rising Stars? That's not a fix."

"I think Bron coulda helped somebody else out and said this earlier."

"For 40 years, each game, each show has been a sheer delight."

"Mac might make me decide to dunk."

"They're refusing to tell me which is which."

"As I watch the embarrassing shooting in tonight’s Celebrity Game, I wonder again why I was never asked to participate."

Will the new format make a difference?
