I'm not sure if this was discussed earlier ( i couldn't find a post about it) but this year's all-star game format is slightly changed:
Each of the first three quarters will be, in essence, a 12-minute mini-game. The team that “wins” the quarter will receive a “winning” donation to charity. And the score at the start of the second and third quarters will be reset to 0-0.
But wait! The scores of the first three quarters for each team will be added up and posted to start the fourth. The cumulative score of the team that’s ahead, plus 24 points (Kobe’s uniform number), will be the final target score. The first team to reach that number will win the game, and there will be no clock.
Oh and no commercials throughout the 4th quarter which is pretty nice imo.
As an added bonus, the entire fourth quarter will be played commercial-free for the folks watching at home.
Somehow it gave a headache. But thank you for that.
Yeah, they reset the score at the 2nd and then the 3rd. A jumpball also for every reset.
Somehow I did understand it a little. Good thing they posted what the rule will be.
Team Lebron won the 1st at 53-41 then Team Giannis at 2nd 51-30 then equaled at 41 at the 3rd.
1st quarter is for Chicago scholars $100,000 Team Lebron.
They should repeat this, they really got serious in playing the game.
It's like every quarter is the 4th quarter.
Gobert making blocks? That is new.
I am impressed with the NBA mathematician, whoever that is.
Wait, Dame is a rapper?
Despite the injury he played on his own tune.
