I agree with CrazyEye, we need more defense to make ASG interesting. In real life, there is no defense, but the quality of the game is made by seeing Lebron, Kobe or Shaq doing some crazy thing in HD, not some dots making 3pt after 3pt. ASG in BB can be interesting if there is a real challenge and willing to see his conference beat the other one in a fair fight where the best defense player have some importance, when a foul at the last second can change the game. Yeah okay, it's impressive to see our Center makes 5/5 3pt, but why did he not participate in the 3pr contest an hour earlier ?
The allstar game is very pointless and most users will admit that. Maybe there should be something that makes it have a meaningful purpose. Maybe have making the allstar team an achievement on a players "history" page. Or maybe giving a small (10k?) amount of cash to managers for each player that makes the squad or having all star team from one league faceoff with allstars from another league or having all star team from lower division team play a Division 1 team or SOMETHING.
