2014 NBA All-Star Game Review



After watching the game or if your looking at the box score you can only come to one conclusion, there most of been no defense played at all. This was a record breaking All-Star game with points scored in a game, individual players scoring at will and showing off their offensive talents.

This was the most points scored in an NBA All-Star game with a combined score of 318 points, when the previous record was 303 points. Carmelo Anthony set a record for the most three's made with eight while also scoring a total of 30 points. Kevin Durant set a record for the most three point attempts with 17, but more shocking was him missing 13 of them, but he still did finish with 50% shooting. Blake Griffin nearly broke the NBA record for scoring finishing with 38 points only missing the mark by 4 points which was held by Wilt Chamberlain's 42 points. Blake Griffin did break the record for field goals made with 19.

The MVP of the All-Star Game goes to Kyrie Irving who tied a record for most points in a single half with 24 points tying Glen Rice who last did it 1997. Kyrie Irving finished the game with 31 points, 14 assists and 5 rebounds in an effort to help lead the East to a comeback win 163-155.
