3 Point Contest???
New network CHECK
New order of events CHECK
New start time CHECK
Whose idea was to put the lone interesting thing about All Star Weekend, the 3 Point Contest, as the first event on Peacock at 4 in the afternoon???!!!???
So. Dumb.
Edit: Even ESPN has the event starting at 6pm EST.
Peacock made that decision in order to have the NBA Saturday "night" programming not compete with the Prime Time Olympic programming. Not sure I agree with either move, but that is the impetus.
My recommendation on the All-Star Weekend is to create 4 All-Star Teams and play 2 games on Saturday with Skills Competition taking place between them. 20 Minute halves.
Play a 3rd game between the winners from Saturday with the 3 pt Shootout taking place before the game on Sunday
Recommendations for the teams:
Canada - roster may include Canadian citizens and players who play or have played for Toronto
World - Players who eligible to play for teams outside of the US/Canada in the Olympics
Western Conference - US Players who play for teams in the Western Conference
Eastern Conference - US players from the Eastern Conference teams
