People will have a glimpse of how underrated Mac is in this game and prove to everyone that the 3 star rating for him is wrong.

why so many players? 15 on a team for an all star game?

why so many players? 15 on a team for an all star game? Top 2 are the coaches. So it's 13 per team (or a normal roster size). Definitely big for an all-star game but the hope is that they'd give 100% while they're on the court. Chances are it'll foster more of a "get mine" environment...which would actually fit with the name better.

There is a dunk contest?? What if he doesnt win? yes you may go to iversonclassic.com for details. There is also a 3 point shootout. The dunk contest is fine even if mac doesnt win but since Zion isnt going to be there Mac has a good chance since he has a good bounce. IMHO the best way for mac to win is with a lob so that he can have better way to focus what to do.

Chances are it'll foster more of a "get mine" environment...which would actually fit with the name better. There are 13 on one team and 15 on the other, plus two coaches for each team. 13 is a roster size for a team that needs to have a bench for practice purposes and also in case of foul trouble or injuries. In a long season, 3 or 4 of those 13 will barely see the floor in a real game, so it is ridiculous to put all these people on the roster, like you say it will lead to a "get mine" attitude since they know they will only be on the floor for a few minutes and if they don't have some stats to show for it then people will be talking about them. whats the point? if they really have to have that many players then they should split them into 4 teams so you might actually get a couple of good games and might actually see what some of these guys can do. you dont need more than 7 or 8 people on each team.

It does seem like too many players, but the McD game has two teams of 12, so it’s not totally out there.

I think you are wrong. He is a media celebrity for his dunks! Ball is Life also has him in their all star game with Akinjo. Rest of players in that game are from the West Coast. MacClung has an immediate draw to young people because of his videos which makes him attractive to non McDonals's AA All Star Games.

Did you guys see Mac in the scrimmages? He’s tearing up 5 stars! More than anything, he doesn't look out of place with the others in the practices. The concern about him was lack of competition in high school and how he would adjust. So far, in the practices, that seems to be a nonfactor. Interested to see how he does in the game. Is the game televised?
