Second,

the "curse" of the All-Star Game. This is a joke, but you have to take it seriously. If you look at the All-Star Weekend records in the past dozen years, you will find a terrible fact: the hosts of the All-Star Game will encounter terrible results in different ways during that season.

In the 1995 All-Star Game in Phoenix, the Suns were second in the Western Conference and met the sixth-ranked Rockets in the Western Conference in the semifinals. The Suns scored 130 points in the first game and beat the Rockets by 22 points. In the second game, they scored 118 points and beat the Rockets by 24 points. They were on the verge of a sweep. However, with a 3-1 lead, the Suns lost three games in a row and suffered a rare comeback in history. In the last game, Elie hit a three-pointer and Elie "Kiss Good-bye".

In 1996, San Antonio hosted the All-Star Game. That year, they lost to the Utah Jazz 2-4 in the Western Conference semifinals. However, David Robinson was injured the following season and he only won 20 games throughout the year. One of the teams with the fastest transition from strength to weakness in history.

In 1997, the Cavaliers hosted 47 of the 50 superstars in NBA history in Cleveland. However, at the end of the regular season, they had 42 wins and 40 losses, but were squeezed out of the playoffs by the Washington Bullets.

In 1998, New York hosted the All-Star Game. In the playoffs, they staged the most famous brawl in history with the Heat. In the semifinals, the Pacers were kicked out of the playoffs 4-1.

In 2000, when the Warriors hosted the team in Oakland, Carter performed one of the most famous dunk performances in history. However, no one from the Warriors was elected to the All-Stars and only won 19 games throughout the season.

In 2001, the Washington Wizards were the host, but they should have held the All-Star Game as early as 1999, but it was aborted due to a strike. This time, the Wizards won 10 fewer games than last season. They won only 29 games in the 1999-2000 season.

The 2001 Eastern Conference champions were the Philadelphia 76ers. The next year they became the hosts of the All-Star Game. However, in this year, Larry Brown had a falling out with Iverson and was eliminated in the first round. Later, Brown left Philadelphia for Detroit.

Not to mention the 2003 host Atlanta. From the beginning of the new century to the present, they have never won more than 35 games, at least 13 games. At the end of the old century, the Hawks won seven consecutive years. Make the playoffs.

In 2004, Los Angeles, a major city in the Western Conference, served as the host again. They had already hosted the All-Star three times before and were considered the leader in this industry. But this time, the Lakers' vitality was shattered. After being beaten 4-1 by the Pistons in the finals, the "OK combination" was in trouble. From then on, the Lakers no longer looked like a dynasty.

For 10 years (except for the vacancy in 1999), no All-Star host was lucky. In the past 10 years, there have been five playoff teams, but they were eliminated in bizarre ways; two bad teams have only won 19 games; one team is only one step away from the playoffs; and another team The team prepared for the All-Star Game for half a year, but it didn’t happen.
