The game actually had some competitive juice this year. Seeing Jeremy Lin hit that 8-pointer during 'double-time' was arguably the best basketball play of the night. It’s cool to see veterans like him and Tacko Fall treating this seriously enough to make it entertaining, rather than just walking up and down the court.

Rome Flynn is great, but giving him MVP over Tacko Fall is a joke. Tacko dropped 20 points, 21 rebounds, and 5 blocks. He literally dominated the entire game. Just because Flynn is the 'celebrity' face doesn't mean we should ignore a 20/20 performance. The voters clearly wanted the Hollywood ending over the actual best player on the court.

Giannis was right: Shams Charania cannot hoop. Watching the NBA's biggest insider go scoreless (0/6 shooting) while getting roasted by his own coach on live TV was the highlight of the night. He spends all year breaking news about players, only to look like he's never touched a basketball. Stick to the tweets, Shams. The '0 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists' stat line is going to haunt his mentions for years.
