What do we think of the NBA’s 2024 All-Star Game, the All-Star Week of events before it, and how the Boston Celtics participating in both did? On one hand, there were new wrinkles that were very clearly a hit, like the additional 3-point shootout between Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry and New York Liberty legend Sabrina Ionescu.

On the other hand, the decision to go back to old-style formats that eschewed the target score ending, charitable donations per quarter, and playground-style team picking did not have the desired effect of bringing back some competitive fire to the big game. Is the NBA’s All-Star Game irretrievably broken? Are there still things that could save it?

Most of all, what needs to happen for us to keep tuning in?

The hosts of the CLNS Media “Garden Report” podcast linked up with Cameron Tabatabaie of Celtics Wire and the “Celtics Lab” podcast to talk us through the 2024 All-Star Game and how Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown did in it.
