I don't usually give the all-star type events much attention. I do like the NFL skill challenges though: QB and kicker accuracy, and especially when they give the linemen an obstacle course.
When I was a kid the NBA All-Sar Game was actually pretty good, because the Jordan era was full of hyper competitive psychopaths. In that era, Hakeem Olajuwon fouled out of the game because he was playing such aggressive defense, which reminds of how they recently switched to flag football for the Pro Bowl because Maxx Crosby kept sacking the QB's.
I've always wanted a 1-on-1 tournament for NBA All-Star weekend. Wouldn't that be the most watched basketball event of the year every year?
One on one would be incredible. Or how about a crazy game of horse between guys Curry and Trae. Taking shots from halfcourt, standing on the announcers table. It will be like that old Jordan and Larry Bird commercial.

They did HORSE during Covid and it was pretty lame. Zach Levine just kept doing dunks and acrobatic layups that no one else could do. That sounds fun, but on Zoom it was not.

I saw that. That was silly.
