That's a typical All Star Game. No defense. A few nice dunks in the 1st quarter. After that, it's all 3s.

apparently winning the game and getting the most points can take home the MVP trophy,
I wonder if that was the motivation behind all the threes.

I think it's also because taking a jumpshot at the 3 pt line gives you a less chance of an injury and also gives you the most points if you make the shot.

No one wants to get injured; Especially if it's an all star game that has no implications on your regular season.

It's good to be safe.
no wonder there was no ankle breakers neither.
Players used to go hard in the 90s.
