For teams like the Orlando Magic and Detroit Pistons, the All-Star Break is a relatively quiet time as neither team had representatives in the All-Star game. Both teams had young players competing in various All-Star events like the Rising Stars game and Skills Challenge, but those are the quieter events of the weekend.
It makes things nice from a fan perspective, as you can take the time to not have to worry about your star player possibly getting hurt in the All-Star game and you can just focus on watching some of the best players in the world competing.
