The total seems a little bit high, but these younger players seem to care less about defense than those from years ago.

I understand that's what this game is about, but years ago they would crank up the D in this game when they needed to..

Here's the last 10 results:

YearResultMVPLocation
2013 West 143, East 138 Chris Paul Houston, Texas
2012 West 152, East 149 Kevin Durant Orlando, Fla.
2011 West 148, East 143 Kobe Bryant Los Angeles, Calif.
2010 East 141, West 139 Dwyane Wade Arlington, Texas
2009 West 146, East 119 Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O'Neal Phoenix, Ariz.
2008 East 134, West 128 LeBron James New Orleans, La.
2007 West 153, East 132 Kobe Bryant Las Vegas, Nev.
2006 East 122, West 120 LeBron James Houston, Texas

I took over first half and game. HT is 148 and to win game I need 126. Would you play under second half? Total would be 313 if it went over 148

Really wish I was able to post my winners in the NBA thread:

Game OVER 291 $$$
1H OVER 146 $$$
2Q OVER 73.5 $$$
3Q OVER 72.5 $$$


I Chose the 2Q/3Q to go OVER because historically, these are the high scoring quarters. I was going to play 4Q UNDER, but laid off because (1) I don't like UNDERs and (2) because both rosters were stacked with sensational guard play.

Regardless, a 4-0 night. Thank you ALL STARS!

Earth Wind and Fire was the best they had going for a few min, the opening of thugs with pants around knees grabbing junk? Class, all NBA class, give me March Madness anyday over this overpaid nothing but show boat game, oh for the old days of NBA baskets
