I would be more entertained if the officials of the league exhibited the abilities of the players other than only basketball with no defense. Perhaps some of them are great at singing, acting, instruments, and dancing.
Fresh idea you have, but I don't think people came to see them. It's an NBA All-Star, meaning all-star players of the NBA gather and compete as a team. The word "compete" was missing in the actual All-Star game, to be honest.
Furthermore, as what the numbers say, I was likewise intrigued by Sabrina Ionescu testing Stephen Curry in the 3-point challenge.
That's the essence of "competition." Curry loves a challenge. If Curry had been the one to start the shooting first, the outcome might have been different. The thing is, Sabrina started, and Curry had already seen how many points he had to beat. Knowing his competitiveness and winner mentality, he loves to take clutch shots and win, and that's exactly what he did during that competition.
