What about a U.S. vs. The World format in the All Star game? East vs. West has become a boring ritual.?

That's an interesting idea, however I feel it is too soon. For one thing the entire Eastern Conference all-star squad this year is American, while all but 4 (if you count Tim Duncan as American) Western Conference players are American. Making it 20 Americans, 4 international total.

The only it would be possible is if the league picked 12 international and 12 American players which wouldn't really be fair to the 8 worthy American players (this year) who would be booted off.

The NHL did try a North America vs. the World format for a while back in the 90s which was interesting, but I don't think the NBA is ready yet.

i do no longer think of the NBA has sufficient distant places gamers that is seen "all-megastar". i think of in a pair extra years the NBA would be ruled via gamers from international extensive, then you will have an excellent tournament up of the suited enjoyed ones gamers and international. The All-megastar interest could be held exterior of the U. S. the place extra followers would be created. at last, the NBA could be as enormous as soccer, that could take some years regardless of if it fairly is rather conceivable.

Wouldnt work Cuz the US team would be led by Lebron Kobe D Wade and Bosh among others and the "world" would be led by GiNOSEbli??? thats why....itd be US 150 World 50 every year...

like the olympics???????
