Lol, google might have put their bet on Team Giannis .,., that's clearly a mistake, as for me, I don't need to google it as I saw the entire game.

I did too.
It may not be an error from what they bet for but the score.
Team Giannis is a winner from 3 quarters and I bet they have a thought that they will win it. I did.
It was a sad ending since I am rooting for Gannis but the rules gave a better hand.
Freethrows won the game and not by a real shot.
Updates is a need to be made.

Team Giannis is a winner from 3 quarters and I bet they have a thought that they will win it. I did.

I think they only won the 2nd quarter, in the 3rd quarter, they are tied and in the 4th quarter it was Team Lebron who won because they rally from a big deficit. Here's the score per quarter : https://www.espn.com/nba/game?gameId=401197813

Its actually misleading people specially for those people who do always love to google.
but for actual fans that doesnt miss out these kind of games will surely spot it out or directly know.
Im even quite surprised on what i have seen.

Congrats for Team Lebron and the winning bettors . What a great bounce for them! I didn't exepect that Team Lebron find a hard time to bring home the bacon thus props to the opposing team. Anyway, my favorite highlights of the game is when Trae Young pull of a half court shot (that was soo cool) and when Giannis blocked AD. In all fairness, I'm entertained in this year's All Star game, I really felt that everyone is taking the game seriously and not just play for the sake of exhibition .

One of the best all star games I saw in my entire life, though Team Lebron is full packed with more better players in the League but Team Giannis came to play and they even lead the game, but in the end, we have guys who are more experience and knows how to take over the game, so it's a well deserved team Lebron win.

Indeed if you'll going to check the compositions of team Lebron it can be said that they've got the big edge, but Giannis company are well dedicated and
also wanted to prove themselves, that particular blocked from the two captains is very intense, personally that Jump Ball is the right call since we can't really say that it was clean block of a goaltending. All ends well and very entertaining, congrats to NBA management.

Team Giannis are composed of new all star while Team LeBron had a great experience in such event. But team Giannis did give a decent match up to team LeBron pulling a hard time for team LeBron to hook up a close call winning score. I could say that in the incoming all star event, if the players of team Giannis would be given a chance to play in all star once again, it would get definitely the W in the end. Though young guns in today's league are promising can't wait to see them all in one match, man.

Was amazed on how Giannis perform on this one even though this is just an exhibition match you can really see the effort on giving out the crowd/fans an entertaining game.
Team Giannis almost pull out that one if that last freethrow by AD didnt go in.I agree on what most people said on here that this all-star match is entertaining compared to previous
years.Congrats btw!

 To everyone who said "dunking over tacko fall was entertainment" thats not what I meant, like I said before, if we talk about dunking, these were all amazing people, maybe not so much for howard but even he was great, everyone else was awesome and amazing. What I mean by "entertainment" is the things dunkers used to do to bring something extra. Dunking over tacko fall versus dunking over hood of a car is different, hood of the car is not 7'5 and its harder to dunk over tacko fall, yet when we talk about "dunking over a car versus dunking over a human" things change, nobody expects to see a car on the floor when you dunk, nobody expects a phone booth and a costume change, nobody expects kryptonite jokes, basically things that are totally unrelated to dunking but just makes things much more entertaining. So like I said before, I have nothing against the dunkers, they are probably one of the best group we have ever seen, but thats not the topic at all, thats not the "entertainment" I was talking about at all.

I wasn't really sure how the game will be with the new rules and I read it bunch of times but I still wasn't sure, after actually seeing the game and how it unraveled I can say that it was actually quite entertaining to watch. All-star games legit started to become more like where players actually rest and have fun and relax in the recent years, thankfully this time around it felt more realistic and more like a match up instead of just fun, there was a lot of hard fouls, taking charges, players actually trying to play.

Definitely, there was a lot of times when nobody defended bunch of alley oops as well, there were stretches of nobody defending but at the end of fourth quarter you saw how every player on the floor tried their best to win the game and get the charity of their team get that donation.

Yeah, I watched the game, but what I meant is like google might have thought the game winner was Giannis team. 
This is just a system error since the scores are correct.

They should really make a repeat of this kind of system.
It was something new to compete with.
The really good thing about here is they cared about the charity they are supporting. They play really hard for them.
We all saw that.

[harizen]

The All-Star Game is great overall.

Still, for entertainment purposes but they really played hard especially in the last quarter. You can see anyone playing defense seriously. That's what the entertainment that everyone wants to see and not just for a show.

Here are the highlights that I'm really amazed

*Devin Booker follow-up dunk (although he is just a replacement, I consider him as an All-Star already the way he
*Alley-oop to Chris Paul
*Kawhi Leonards aggressiveness (this is not his usual in the past All-Star game)
*Antetokounmpo's defense. He really challenged and contest most of the inside attempts by Team LeBron
*Trae Young's nice assist to Gobert. (2-3 times? If I'm not mistaken)
*Ben Simmons and Jayson Tatum athleticism

I don't know why both teams exclude the starters Trae Young and Luka Doncic to play in the deciding situation. It's always been a usual practice that those starters will play at the closing game. Instead, Kyle Lowry (Team Giannis) and Chris Paul (Team LeBron) played. Both teams played as a veteran group. Well, no worries to me as from now on, fans should expect these 2 youngsters will always be present every All-Star game.

That's for sure as they are the future of the NBA, they are expected in the next all star and as they get more matured they'll surely at least win one MVP award in all star. Lebron did not win an all star MVP right away but eventually he does because he was there every all star, now he seems to be satisfied already and he gives others a chance..hopefully next all star it would be the team Giannis who would win and he well finally get an MVP award though.

Yeah, maybe the first time that we see in an all star game wherein they are playing defense, Giannis challenging Lebron and then Lebron guarding Joel Embiid in the post. Interesting to see Kawhi winning the all star MVP for this year, I never expect him to win to be honest.

Anyways, the real winner here is the charity organisation, good cause for the whole NBA here and kudos to them.

So do I, but he was great showing some good shooting and consistency in the game, so he got the award, actually that was an effortless win for me but he all deserved that win, "including the new car from KIA" (lol)...

No, we are the real winner because we are entertain, NBA could spare their billions of money to any charity any time, they just use it again to advertise their organization in live TV.

Me too, I didn't expected that he became the MVP. Well, maybe that's really a kind of player he is — silent and not as charismatic as the others but if you will look the scorecards in the end, you will get shocked that he really contributed great numbers lol.

And us of course, it brought us the excitement we wanted . I'm pretty sure many basketball fans out there will love watching NBA more and some people out there might now start loving it as well .

What matters is what a player will produce in the end and Leonard were able to produce more compared to its teammates.
Leonard is almost a complete player in terms of MVP award, he only now lacks winning a regular season MVP which is unlikely to happen IMO due to his style.

Real winner here is the fans and the charity that benefit out that all-star game.Me too which i didnt expect for Kawhi to get the all star MVP this year and you can really see the aggressiveness on making points unlike into this typical gameplays.

I wont say that Lebron do give way or give chance to others.Kawhi did perform well and really worthy of that award but the thing you said was right which participating for all star game is already enough.
For young guns, its already anticipated that these fellas would be seen on upcoming years and theres no doubt to that.

He is definately the silent assassin.  I dont think a regular season mvp is out of the realm of possibility for him.  He is usually always the best all around player on the floor at anytime he is on the floor.  He obviously makes his testes better that's been shown in toronto.  The only thing against him is he isnt flashy.
