Oh! A real basketball game!
This is boring as hell 😂 I go to sleep to this shit
Real basketball games are played all the time and some are more exciting than this.
@@Gofrozeyou’re not to sharp are you?
@@Gofroze Meat riding today's nba divas is exhausting, definitely put you to sleep
@@Romanus- this is top quality sleep content
It seems 1987 ASG played more serious than the 2024 regulars games.
2024 is a joke
Wow I’m 20 years old and this type of basketball is amazing! No wonder everyone hates todays NBA! Thanks Steph!
Not his fault.
the fault lies with the NBA, they sacrificed defense and some rules of this sport for a show more focused on attack and performance. And yet I find that the matches now are much more boring to watch than the matches of the 80s/90s, there are not only bad sides, for example Lebron surely would not have had such a long career if he had played at that time. The game is evolving but not necessarily in the right direction, hence the misery of current all-star games
You're right, he can't be praised for "changing the game" every time you turn around and then not have any responsibility for the state of the current NBA.
Casuals saying playing defense is overrated and Basketball is so much fun to watch with so much scoring...
All Star game today is just a SHIT Show.
I like watching good defense being played. They need to change things change it back to the 80s. It’s not just defense missing though. The art of the pass is, and posting the big guys up more is missing and need to stop shooting so many 3s
did you also watch 91 fta lolmaorofl@@alansnow1129
I don't even think anyone says that. The NBA just likes to perpetuate that kind of play to bring in fans that don't watch basketball at all. Brand new fans.
They've started to allow defense now and not just blowing the whistle at the slightest contact. I think they realized that there's no point in getting fickle new fans when they're losing their old fans.
The All-star game, on the other hand, is a shit-show because players aren't willing to injure themselves or even exert effort for a game that doesn't matter at all. They see the all-star game as a vacation.
The NBA can fix it by putting actual stakes on it. Like giving the winning side homecourt advantage in the finals. Similar to what the MLB does.
Some people don't know what it's like to watch basketball with defense if they're young enough so they can be slightly excused, anybody above the age of like 27 who enjoys todays NBA product is probably braindead
@@Seattlefan77You'd be surprised at the number of FANs saying that. A fan of the new era of the NBA once argued against my point and said isn't that the point of the game? To score more? The team that scores more wins? And claimed I was dumb to want defense as that would defeat the purpose of the game. 🤦
Then I argued it is more satisfying to see a player make a contested shot over tough defense.
Not all fans but some new fans no longer appreciate the competition between offense and defense. For them the competition is about who shoots more (basically uncontested shootout). Again not all but you'd be surprised at how many wants a shootout.
Allstar 24 was so shitty someone uploaded the 87 Allstars game to show what an Allstar game supposed to look like
He's angry too
I stopped watching years ago.
Kids this is how the all star should be played not a defenseless and three point contest.
Todays all-start stars think doing stupid show is what stars do :)
"when your fans put your name on the ballot, you return the call." We need these kind of broadcasters in today's NBA. Instead we get guys making excuses for the players
and even hyping the bs up
One reason I think is these announcers never played in the NBA. Need to get announcers who are professionals not ex players who never went to broadcasting school. They really dummied down the league in announcing and on the floor play. These players were smarter
@@alansnow1129 even Reggie miller sucks 😂 the problem is these players make more to lie on camera than they did to play in the NBA.
Dick Stockton was awesome
yea you want to go back to slave times
This was the greatest all-star game; competitive contest featuring:
Stars of the 70s getting one last moment in the light to showcase their skills (Dr J, Moses, The Captain)
Stars of the 80s who are in their prime here (Bird, Magic, Isaiah, McHale, Chambers, Worthy, Laimbeer)
And the stars of the 90s also begin to emerge (Jordan, Barkley, Olajuwon)
I watched a good portion of the 1993 All Star game a couple months back, and had forgotten just how competitive the NBA was back then. Guys playing all out on both offense and defense, hard fouls etc., while maintaining the showmanship of an All Star showcase. Woe, how the NBA has fallen. We didn't realize how good we had it back then. Thanks for posting.
You can say what you want about players today, but the all star game of the NBA is going the same way as the NFL pro bowl went.
Ergo: Players not playing hard, and the experience of watching the game suffers because of it.
You could look at the scores and say that the all star games have always been higher scoring than the average of the time they are in.
And while the NBA has a lot of talented shooters, it’s tough to say that defensive effort was there when one team scored 200+ points in a regulation game.

@@Gofroze I see your responses haven't evolved since kindergarten...at least you find yourself hilarious though, so at least someone is laughing
I've watched two minutes and seen more effort and serious ball than the last 5 all-star games combined.
I absolutely love watching 80's and 90's games and actually seeing such little space between the ball and defenders. Wherever the ball goes, there's a defender right there. What happened to this league!?
The 3 F's; A football player, flopping, and free agency. Plus superteams and a biased media.
@@joepermenter7228 But saw a video that proved rather conclusively Curry gets lets fouls called than other players; rumor is the NBA wants to make way for "new stars" and wishes he was gone.
@@raylopez99they don’t want him to pass Lebron in titles as it ruins their whole narrative
Nothing like those times!
Well i watched 2 minutes and saw 4 missed layups, an airball by MJ, an airball and a pass into the stands by Bird.
But yes, I do see that they actually kinda give a fuck.
Theres 2 things very noticeable though. The first is that the refs are officiating this like a real game. They are just as relaxed and lenient in todays ASG.
Another is the 3's. Obvious I know. But it perfectly explains your last point. Theres a fuckload of space in todays game. Its almost impossible to guard the 3 at times.
In this game, its all midrange and paint play. I saw 2 missed 3's in 6 minutes and thats it. Im sure if they were all shooters as they are now, it would look nearly identical.
No obnoxious music blasting every 18 seconds, people truly focused on the game. What a concept
its not a sports league, its an entertainment league
From the Time Magic and Bird entered the NBA in 1980 to Jordan retired the first time 1993 - TO ME - is the best era of basketball
Agreed! 👍
I pretty much agree, too. I’d even pair it down to 1983-1988 as being arguably the best five years of the league.
For me, late 70s to 80s.
The players now would destroy these dudes 🤣 this is middle school basketball
@@Gofroze Today's basketball is rec ball at the YMCA. Traveling with no defense. What pathetic display of an 2024 All-Star Game.
39:36 That nifty little sequence from Barkley, to Malone, to McHale, to Thomas, to Laimbeer was fantastic.
MJ, Kareem, Bird, Magic, Hakeem. Those are five of the top 10 players of all time playing in this game.
Yet Tom Chambers stole the show. That's the spirit.
Kareem is only top ten in being tall gtfo
@@kinidiosodlosios6892stick to volleyball kid.
@@kinidiosodlosios6892 A study once found the really tall seven foot plus men in the world end up playing pro basketball, so yeah.
@@kinidiosodlosios6892imagine not thinking Kareem is too 10. Learn basketball
I watched this instead of the 2024 All Star game and, this is actually new to me because I did not view this at the time. I didn't start watching pro sports until 1988. This post is much appreciated.
Watching this to remember when these games were watchable
bruh im literally 16 yrs old the fact i watched the whole thing and didnt watch modern asg says a a lot💀💀
Alright here's a REAL All-Star game. Back when it was about the chance to prove yourself better than your peers, not being praised for uncontested dunks and 3s.
East vs West...that's all. This Game took a turn for the worst once Silver turned it into Team LeBron vs Team Curry or whoever else they put up
The game overall took a turn for the worst when that moron silver took over
Yeah I agree David Stern wouldn't have let this nonsense go on.
Rob Parker was right when he says silver is the worst comminsor of all sports
I think was already stale before then. I think the team captains idea was only added because they recognised the problems already and were desperate to fo anything to make it more interesting
it was trash before then. Those first two years of the draft were great games, I remember thinking Chris Paul was about to get tossed because he was getting so animated with the refs near the end. That competitive spirit didnt last though, and now were here...
Larry Legend called out the players to "Compete" in the 2024 All Star game. Instead we just go a defenseless ****show that ended 186-211 after regular time. Way to respect a legend. The 1987 game also with a high points total but at least they played D.
Most current NBA players probably couldn't care less about anything Larry Bird says.
@@Musso88 Which is really, really sad, but I don't think they care what anyone says or thinks as long as they're still taking home absurd pay, treated like divas, and pampered like brats.
The players cared back then. It was a honor back then. The east and west took pride in “our conference have the best players and we gonna show you it’s tougher on this side” type of mindset and made the game mean something, which it should have.
I really cared that the east won back then being a bulls fan
@@Chip-dg7wy that’s 💯. Same with me when I grew up and as a 76ers Guy, AI was on our squad. I wanted him to show Kobe and the west like nah the east is where it’s at. Man sad how those things are gone 🤦🏽♂️.
Thanks for posting; This should be mandatory viewing for every NBA all-star that was part of that travesty from Indianapolis on Sunday.
i like what Dr. J. being him a "representative" of his club (franchise)
damn those where the days
current players only represents themselves
Yawn raxist
Thanks for this AOH. I watched and enjoyed the whole game. Unfortunately, this is the most enjoyment I’ve gotten out of an NBA game in a long time…
Just my immediate reflections when comparing to the game nowadays:
* The amount of mutual respect the players show each other.
* The complete lack of irrelevant statistics.
*The number of dribbles the players do.
*The creativity the players has to get the shots off.
*How fluent the game is. Much fewer stops.
*The intensity of the defense (despite being an all-star game).
*Most fouls are obvious.
* The idea of singing the national anthem as weird as possible apparently goes further back than I thought.
Loved Kareem's lowkey reaction to.that "run" by Osborne in the anthem. 😄
Somehow LBJ got fouled watching this
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂 Perfect!!! That’s so funny…
And still whining about it
I just passed him. He's still on his butt sliding down I-69.
NBA and NFL of the 80s and 90s is sorely missed.
3 minutes in the all star game and i see more effort than players nowadays have in the playoffs
yeah..and still these idiot players nowadays get their millions of dollars..for almost nothing..
Oh so you saw the 4 missed layups, the airball by MJ, the airball and pass into the stands by Bird?
I do see them giving more of a fuck about it.
But I mainly see the refs officiating this game as a normal game instead of a "let them have fun" whistle.
@@LeapingRat lol u see the defense is good right to cause those things to happen unlike today weirdo
@@Mambamentallyreadyi had a stroke reading that sentence.
offense is inflated because of 3's, better players and the shot clock resetting to 14 instead of 24 on offensive rebounds and take fouls.
if you get the best defense of that era, its would be an average team at best in this era.
@@LeapingRat lol I think u miss the point of defending, u can't do the dumb flashy shit they do with actual defense being played, if rodman was on anybody today they would shit their pants, also had a stroke reading ur terrible take learn some ball
Kareem and Dr J, Bird and Magic, MJ, Charles and Hakeem….that’s like 3 generations of NBA pinnacles playing on the same court
Just looking at the player introductions from the 1987 All-Star Game is already more exciting than the entire 2020s All-Star Game.😂
They were proud to be there, just look at the excitement in Blackman's and Olajuwon's faces, even Laimbeer was excited!!! Today's divas just care more to look good for their f**g social media.
They LOOK like professionals!!
In interviews, at the airports!!!
Pretty sure no "dress code" was in place at the time
Before depravity truly took over 😢…
If I'm right there was a dressing code, they had to arrive in a suit and tie or at least some formal clothing to the arenas, the coaches had to be in suit and tie for the game. I'm not fond of dressing codes and believe anybody can dress at free will, but for such a high audience sport it should be a little bit more discreet, the way some of the players dress today is just ridiculous, kind of a competition on who can wear the most ridiculous outfit 😂
@@manuelsalazar3938yeh it’s great having dudes like Westbrook wear a literal dress, players dressing like homeless guys or cheap pimps. Really brings a great flare to the game. Awesome stuff
Two lineups full of all-time greats. What a time. Thanks!
Tried to imagine any of them publicly claiming to be the goat.
Kareem, The Doctor, Bird, Moses, Laimbeer, and Isiah were there to keep Jordan humble.
Sure Queen James would've had no problem playing in this era....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Appreciate and enjoy the knowledge/effort.
Thanks cuz✌️
I don't think he would at all.
How is this all star game played with more competitive fire than most of the regular season games played today? Today's league is broken.
I blessed enough to have seen this game in person as boy with my mother. She took me for my birthday. I'm not sure this was the greatest all star game played, but one could argue it was. I consider myself a student of the game for a long time. I played as well as coached. Comparing this era to today's all game is like watching the WNBA game or even better... the NFL all star flag football game. I retract the WNBA comment, they play hard. Thanks for the person who uploaded this video!
Last night's All-Star game was the most embarrassing and insulting thing I've ever watched. It was just a bunch of dudes F'ing around on a basketball court. The game was a huge middle finger to the fans and to all the players in previous eras who actually played with a sense of humility and pride.
But all those casuals like to receive the middle finger, they even pay for it, that's why those divas are so entitled.
Yup and it’s affecting the play in the Olympics too! If they fuck around like they did in all star game they won’t win anything off medals
Thanks for this! 154 to 149. Not too far off to todays regular season.
I thought the same.
And the causals call this time “plumber era” 🤦♂️
Yea and the East just put up 211 in the 2024 all-star game. Absolutely disgusting. It was a 3 pt barrage. KAT scores 50 like it's nothing. Tatum last year had 55. I remember for yrs the all-star game scoring record was 42 pts by Kareem. Jordan almost broke that with 40 in 1988. Dame scores 39 in this game tonight hitting 2 half court shots while launching 3 after 3. This was easily the most boring basketball game I have watched in my 46 yrs of life.
Basically there were two three-point shoot outs this year.😂
@@dannyhernandez265 not gonna lie... i've never seen or heard a casual as of yet referr to the 80's and 90's as the plumber era... maybe if I came across somebody who was born in the last 10 15 yrs nobody legit see's that time period as that..
OMG, player intros without annoying music cos actual ambiance/lively crowd!!
Yeah everything has to be hyped up a lot in recent times for the simple minded people. They got to make sure to do their best for views so the mega rich (unearned) can sell more coke, lays potato chips and watch the new popular movie.
yeah .. i dont even watch nba nowadays...@@misterclownface
@@misterclownfaceOh! You mean Coca-Cola. My bad!! 😅😅😅
I just watched the ASG from
86 yesterday and it was must see tv. The effort doing things like rebounding and trying to score was incredible. Thank God for YT
This was refreshing to see...especially after that trash i seen last night. The nba is in serious trouble
These offenses are dynamic and the players moving around. Lebron would be bewildered
I sat and watched the beginning of South Carolina vs Georgia wncaa game this morning, and those girls play basketball better than the "pros" in the NBA. Constant movement between 5 players for South Carolina, Georgias defense had 5 girls moving in unison, forcing ball movement and making South Carolina work for good shots, nobody whining if a call was missed, solid fundamentals, not a bunch of travels and charges. Its a breath of fresh air to watch college men and women play basketball.
@@chrisuncleahmad nobody can score? Ok, but then they enter the NBA and dominate scoring, do you not see the difference in the 2 leagues? 😂 What did Jayson Tatum average at duke? 16, then 13 in the NBA, by year 3 it was 23. The NBA doesn't play defense, college basketball still plays defense, runs sets, and plays within the rules of basketball. It's easier to score and look good on offense when you can take 4 and a half steps or carry the ball every other dribble.
He would just stand around and watch the game, like he does now.
@@IsaacMSingleton1 ... and dunking uncontested by any defender, play fullback getting away with a no called offensive foul, getting free free throws by flopping or being the chosen one that needs more help even from the league to inflate his stats.
I really enjoyed watching this game. Thanks, AOH ! It's nice seeing all the players doing their best, while keeping their game clean at the same time, even Laimbeer, which I was surprised to find out he could shoot. But nothing compared to Chambers, who made it splash quite a few times, and Rolando 'Big Balls' Blackman. I was also really impressed by Moses Malone, who was all over the place. And Dr J was still pretty crafty for a 37-year-old man (unlike some self-proclaimed king).
Exactly, they all understood it was a friendly competition, how to give the fans a show while playing hard, and keeping it clean. Now I see fans say the dunk contest is too risky for guys 😂 how far the league has fallen
Lambier surprised me too
@@Hooperville1974lambier was always a skilled player. He wasn’t just some enforcer. Dude could ball
Lambeer was one of the top rebounders and open-midrange shooters in the NBA during most of his career. He ws putting up better numbers in his last 2 yrs of his career than many "prime" aged centers (mind-90's). On one hand, that's how good Lambeer really was. On the other hand, that's how soft/weak the NBA had become by the mid-90's. Because ultimately Lambeer was still an undersized C/PF who was often a liability on defense, and couldn't create his own shot.
@@IsaacMSingleton1right we would have dunk contest at my practice in highshool. We didn't make millions. These NBA players nowadays are soft as he'll and we can thank LeBron for spearheading this non competitive nature. Imagine calling yourself the goat with a losing finals record to someone in your own era. What does that !make Steph then?.
Doc was *all class* -- humble, and genuine.
These men would beat the brakes off these young Thundercats today.
YEP!!!!
So LeFlop skipped the Utah Jazz game to save his energy for the All Star game only to play 14 minutes ? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The player Bird recently said as the "greatest ever"....
@@mr.sinjin-smythI think bird was paid to say that no way he thinks he’s better than jordan or even himself
@@etthhereal Possibly.... Bird also did say NBA basketball is in "good hands" towards the far future. There are honestly many now who like to ridicule "old heads" when it comes to which NBA era was the best. Personally, this 3 point driven era NBA has gotten stale and boring to watch. 2023 NBA Finals was about the most interesting I've seen of NBA in years.
it was a back to back, which he never plays,
Keeping track much?? The Lebron Stalkers are insane.
Just caught the end of the 2024 all star game with my 11 yr old son…it doesn’t even look like the same sport.
Also, these guys were men. They were so much more mature than what exists today; and not just in the NBA…
Testosterone levels dropped by 30% since and 50% since some these guys were born. Its hard to deny it just looking at them. Same age as todays players but they look like their fathers and not in old way but mature looking way. I feel bad for your son growing up in this chemically castrated world...
@@outlander234 my boys are being raised right, no need to worry about them. Worry about these young bucks that have no father to guide them…
@@natetran Your response saddens me because it shows how uninformed public is about what catastrophic thing is happening. Due to plastic and other chemical pollution each generation has less and less testosterone and repruductive ability. Your son if things continue as they are will have much lower baseline genetic level of testosterone and he will struggle because of it as do many many young men today and will have to go on TRT just to be normal. This isnt about upbringing its about pollution and its everywhere suppressing our genes. I will end here because the rest is up to you if you want to find out about this.
GOD BLESS YOU AOH
Got the chills when they announced Dr J. Incredible
The fans were completely into the game, they knew about basketball and appreciated the players' efforts... Of course it helps that there were no smartphones at the time though 😂
Thanks for this. I fell in love with the nba about 2 years after this. I miss this brand of ball.
I fell in love with nba the next year after this when Chambers came to Phoenix to play with KJ. Both most underrated players ever in nba and both should be in hall of fame already
I didn't know I needed this today. I miss my Sonics but not today's NBA!
The NBA All Star game has become about as boring as any game can possibly be. ZERO effort or care is shown by the players and it sucks the fun out of watching it knowing how little they care!
Players care about money and politics more than the game or the fans anymore. Same Hollywood
I'm more entertained watching friends shoot around at the local basketball court for 20 mins.
Thanks for posting. A completely different game than today. These guys competed.

The P.A. announcer for the 1987 NBA All-Star Game was Jimmy Jones, the SuperSonics TV play-by-play broadcaster & former Trailblazers announcer. What a classic voice when class came 1st! Gave me goose bumps when he announced to the crowd post-game "Ladies & Gentleman the leading scorer of today's game with 34 pts....Tom Chambers! The Kingdome went nuts! What a special night for TC & the SuperSonic faithful that day in Feb '87!
I was a hockey player and fan but man it doesn't get any better than getting to see so many legends at one time. Unreal. Oh to go back
Back then players contested every layup or dunk. There was no wide open lane like you see today
Thank you immensely for putting this video online. It was real basketball and the players were tough, brave and relentless.
I am 50 years old, from Washington State and I remember watching this game with my dad. We were so excited to get the All Star Game in Seattle to begin with. The only Sonic on the team was Tom Chambers, who was an alternate that replaced an injured Ralph Sampson, and went on to win the MVP. That was a great moment. RIP Seattle Supersonics, 1970-2008, 3 Finals Appearances, 1 NBA Championship.
Great post. SuperSonics 1967-2008
I graduated High School about 2 months later. Growing up in the golden age of the NBA was cool. Tyson Fights and Jordan games. What a blast. These millennials have ruined everything. I haven't been to a game in 20 years and haven't watched one at all in at least 15. I even gave up college hoops.
Only The Millennials were the ones who gave Jordan's greatness/legacy credibility by buying his shoes, supporting his switch to baseball, and watching Space Jam in droves. The media and their current false idol ruined The NBA not Gen Y.
@@joepermenter7228 Well, that's true, but the media profits on their weak entitled minds that believe all the lies so easily instead of analyzing things and getting their own conclusions.

Look at that effort by MJ on D against Chambers. In an All-Star Game. Imagine that!
Great to see so many legends in this old game. Happy see my boy Laimbeer
they really did take almost 100 free throws in this game that's insane.

Why all these plumbers and firemen playing so hard in a All Star Game? Don't they know if they get posterize it will go viral on social media and ruin their brand? And the nerve of these guys to Freeze out Jordan with only 2 points at halftime
Nah all jokes aside one thing I loved about old school sports and the media is they did not have all the BS Hype before the game.
The players played the game and hyped us up with their playing. Now the media try to everyone hyped up for mediocre play at best
Amen. Even the non hyped pregame starting lineup announcements were refreshing to see
Chambers diving for a loose ball in the all star game..nah let me roll another one up and appreciate this..thanks AOH..this is in the year i was born..1/4/87
Just watched 3 minutes and it's definitely more entertaining then today's all star game 🤣🤦
Hold up! They actually played basketball and defended?! 🤯
Thanks for the upload
This brought back memories! I never got to see this one in the Caribbean (no CBS channel) Thank you! I miss these legends! Defense Hustle...lord i miss the elbows!!
These guys played this game like it was a game 7.
This is my first time seeing this since I was only 1 when this happened lol. The first thing you notice is actual DEFENSE in an all-star game. You can tell these guys considered it an honor to be there and played hard from the opening tip.
Same here, except i was 0 when it happened)))
I thought all star games always had no defense to open the door for more flashy stuff. Seeing this is really an eye opener, I'd rather see the best players actually play real basketball than see them shoot open threes and leave the paint open so that there's opportunity for flashy dunks. In every aspect this is a soft league.
I don't care if people say stuff about him, in my opinion, whatever had remained from the NBA died when Kobe retired. He had the same mindset that these guys had.
Did you hear the announcer say that Bird said the All Star games are actually MORE physical!!?
Ironically these old All Star Games was considered no Defense back then...
But by today's standard they playing NBA Finals and Playoffs Defense.
Silverman doesn't understand what the people want.
It's always been a popularity contest for the fans, but in reality, for the players it was a competition and a platform to prove that you belonged to the best of the best. I always have on my mind the "c'mon sucker, show me what you got" attitude of Kevin Garnett, those were real men playing actual basketball.
@@BOSSDONMAN Problem is that he does, but they profit on what's more marketable and brings more money, it's pretty much like Hollywood and Disney, the casuals that consume any shit they are given and happily pay for it.
Thanks AOH for an awesome trip down memory lane
I watched up to the point Isiah Thomas got trip fouled driving thru the paint. Hopped right up smiling. All I could picture was lebron laying there for 10 minutes acting like someone just cut his leg off with a machete.
😂
Excellent idea to drop this video 👍🏼
The All Star "Game" from this year was like watching a crappy 80's or 90's sitcom when they decided to do a basketball episode for some stupid reason.
Well except those were suppose to be crappy. The all star game isn’t and shouldn’t be
Millennials take note: When you run a fast break, finish it with a lay-up or a dunk, not a 3-point attempt. To hell with the analytics.
I can't express the appreciation I have for you for uploading this entire game. I'm only 31 so I wasn't able to watch these games. And I'm so glad I can just chill out and watch these legends play now
Thank you so much for posting this greatness.
Love the competitive attitude they displayed.

@@F34RDSoldier805 How is the Biden's inflation going for you? Stuff back then was lot cheaper and more affordable. Not to mention society standards have taken a nosedive no thanks to alphabet & diversity mafia given more and more influence power each passing year.

Thanks! After cutting off the 2024 game midway through the first quarter, this is very much appreciated!
This is a jewel thanks for the upload
Im sorry but this infinitely better than todays game. Put the rules back to 80s/90s and make them compete
Yes!!! Keep kids in college too and let them mature and then draft them
Coaches don't even wear suits no more..smh
Today's players do not respect the game and its predecessors. The nba was fantastic from 1980 to 1998. I do not recognize the current nba anymore.
Boom, perfect timing ;)
Much appreciated!
Amazing basketball. Thanks for uploading this!
Awesome upload. Can’t wait to compare this to today’s game. Let’s just hope Curry doesn’t literally lay down on defense again and Bron doesn’t travel too too much. Lol
So....Is there any comparison?....
I dont care what anybody says, the most feared/respected player on the floor was not Bird, Magic, Moses, Dr. J, Kareem or Jordan but Hakeem Olajuwon. The best center O have ever seen play live or on TV live
thanks for sharing this, glory days
Thank you so much for uploading this. You’re the goat
The fact that nobody boos the players today and just sit there and fake cheer for these millionaires throw the ball around giving 0 effort for 4 quarters amazes me. People voted to see these guys play and they collect the accolade but refuse to give a shit. Incredible era of basketball fans and players truly. Get rid of all-star weekend, get rid of the award and just get on with the season.
They all just care more for their fake social media life, they're just like the humans depicted in Wall-E.
I wish current regular season games were as competitive as this expedition game.
Thank you for giving us a oportunity to watch this :)
Watching this game makes basketball look like an art
1987 May have been before I was born, but I’d definitely rather watch this NBA All-Star Game than the recent abominations! I’m glad that I own the game on DVD’s (4) and that I can watch it on CZcams
At 1:42:09, Charles Barkley threw elbows in this game. It tells you how serious the competition was.
Sir Charles always took any game as a serious competition... And most of the players did too. I really miss those times.
Allow elbow throwing again. So what if fights come out allow these men to be men again
Watching with a huge respect. Things were not better than today; but more lively and cosy than today.
Great post I just finished watching
Im just here to show my son that they really played defense in all star games
