NBA.com has some sweet video breaking the all-star game into a solid 15 minute chunk of all star goodness. I thought Shawn Marion should've been MVP. Sometimes no defense can be a beautiful thing.
Highlights from the (yawn) dunk contest too. The dunk contest at the all-star game ought to be a write-in vote of everybody's favorite dunks in the games of the season up to that point. Dunks in games are rousing and they serve a purpose, that's what makes them exciting. All the dunks in the all star game itself are far more compelling than any of the entries in the dunk contest. Watching these guys trying to create something interesting, something beautiful with only a ball and a hoop, without context, is mostly just brutal.
