On Sunday night, NBA fans got the opportunity to watch the best of the best go at it in the All-Star game. East versus West. Red versus blue. God versus Man, DAY versus NI … sorry, I was watching Dawn of Justice earlier today. Great movie. I’m sure everyone would agree! Anyway, back to the All-Star game.
For the first time in 20 years, the Los Angeles Lakers did not have a player voted in the All-Star game. In 1997, Shaquille O’Neal made the All-Star game in his first year with the Purple and Gold and was a lock every year until he was traded to the Miami Heat in 2004.
