Things to look for

LeBron James, Chris Bosh, Dywane Wade on the floor at the same time –  There have been crazy rumors that Miami will try to acquire the two biggest free agents on the market. So they can team them with their own free agent to be Dywane Wade. We might see a preview today.

Chris Kaman and David Lee – Enjoy this is the first time in a long time that the NBA All-Star teams have featured American born white NBA All-Stars.

Empty Seats – Can the NBA All-Stars sell out Cowboy Stadium?

New Faces – this is the first All-Star game for Derrick Rose, Rajon Rondo, Gerald Wallace, Al Horford, and David Lee on the East and Kevin Durant Deron Williams, Zach Randolph, and Kaman for the West.
