This years NBA (National Basketball Association) All Star game was to most bitter tasting of any previous professional basketball contest I have ever seen. With no sign of a Michael Jordan in the building, the NBA All Star game was like watching two losing teams going head to head during a Monday night football match. no existence of a true rivals, the NBA is slowly on a decline as more and more fans look for other interesting shows on television. Shows such as reruns of American Gladiators or American Idol.
