ever since its inaugrual season, i love the rookie games. the past couple of years it has been more exciting than the all-star game itself. today was no exception. i tell you what. say what you want about the warriors but they have a GREAT future ahead of them. arenas, richardson and murphy went off during the game ( well, arenas and richardson anyway). then add jamison and a maturing dunleavy to the mix you have a danger team. caron butler did outsatanding also. i was a little disappointed with wagner's performance though. i thought he would go off on a platform like this. richardson had the nastiest plays including the three pointer at the end when he passed to himself by bouncing the ball off of boozer's head. very disrespectful but entertaining. maybe next year we will finally have a rookie representitive. i don't think we ever had one since the first year with john wallace.

I agree the game is entertaining. But Judging a players worth in a B-list all-star game is kinda stretching it. A team like the Clippers should be great now. They haven't had any veteran players (they refuse to pay them) to teach these super-talented kids how to perform night-in night out. I hope Golden State has these models... they are needed to continue the developement of the youngsters.

Rookie game was quite boring. I think they should move to a format like NBA young stars vs. AND1 stars. AND1 would probably whip up on NBA but it would be alot more entertaining and id definitely watch.

How about an international players against american players game on saturday? That should be fun to watch and might be quite competitive.
