The NBA has made changes to the All-Star Game in hopes of promoting better competition among the players and a more interested fan base after years of it being nothing else than an offensive exhibition, with every year garnering scoring records one after the other.

Under the new rules, two team captains will be selected and put in charge of selecting their squads in hopes of making this game more personal than the usually assembled East vs. West teams.

Stephen Curry, who was selected as a starter for last year's game, noted he would likely select one of his Golden State Warriors teammates to participate.

“Probably one of my teammates,” said Curry when asked who his first pick would be. “Until you run out of those options, then you gotta figure it out.”

“I don't know. You don't go into a draft knowing who's gonna pick ninth, 10th, 11th, you gotta see how it all unfolds [tsk, tsk].”

This new format gets points for trying, but if the league gets the best two guys from the best two teams, then they're giving a preview of the NBA Finals with some other All-Stars sprinkled into the bench.

Expect this trend to repeat itself, as most star players have first and foremost an obligation to their fellow players rather than appeasing the fans.
