Yes, even though they lost, this was one good thing that came out of this.
This was the first all star game I watched in over 10 years and it did not disappoint. Sure, they're not going to play defense for 48 minutes, but this was as much defense as you could hope for in a meaningless game. You could see guys get competitive and Webber was correct in that playing a bit of defense actually creates more exciting plays as the degree of difficulty goes up as opposed to a glorified dunk contest/layup line
Internet is talking about that Fergie national anthem and how it was "cringeworthy". I actually skipped it but rewatched it once they were talking about it and I thought it was a perfectly fine performance if you knew what they were going for. It was an obvious nod to Marvin Gaye's 83 performance in LA and she sang the song in a different style (not sure what it's called but a like vintage jazz style)
She's no Marvin as he was able to sing the song his way and get people to clap along during the song but to me I appreciated that she sang it differently instead of the same way that everybody does.
