NBA All-Star game set for overhaul to include Eastern vs Western change

The NBA are reportedly considering making major changes to the format of the All-Star game that could come into effect next season.

This week will see the Conference Finals draw to a close, as the finalists for next month’s NBA Finals become known. In the Eastern Conference, the Miami Heat hold a 3-0 lead over the Boston Celtics, while in the west the Denver Nuggets are also one game away from a sweep over the Los Angeles Lakers with a 3-0 advantage.

While the playoffs are the most competitive and intense part of the NBA season, there are other games that are played to entertain basketball fans. One of them is the traditional NBA All-Star game, which takes place over the course of a weekend every February.
