Just like it said on the tin, the 2009 All-Star Game featured the top NBA basketball players in the country. The East boasted a terrifying cohort, which contained masters like Allen Iverson, Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, Kevin Garnett and Dwight Howard. This powerful East line-up were determined to make the first dent in the scoreline. The West were not to be deterred though. They, too, had their shining stars, including 2007 NBA MVP Kobe Bryant. Many who chose to buy All-Star Game tickets in 2009 did so just to see this man do his thing. Bryant, along with Chris Paul, Tim Duncan, Amare Stoudemire and Yao Ming managed to put on a great show, and were competing soon enough. Chris Paul and New Orleans teammate David West provided momentum for the West, and they worked effectively at narrowing that sudden lead.

The West chased the East every inch of the way, though, and came out on top in the fourth quarter. This was where the character of the stronger basketball hemisphere would make or break, and "make" it certainly did. The West went into overdrive, and Shaq and Kobe returned to their NBA Championship form to combine for 54 points and the shared the NBA All Star Game MVP Award. The game featured some larger-than-life heights, and even the commentators struggled to keep up at times with the dizzying and fantastic spread of accurate passes and dunks being sprayed around the court. Many said parts of the 2009 NBA All-Star Game resembled a Harlem Globetrotters exhibition, with such a talented constellation out there on the hardwood in fine cohesive form. All in all, NBA All-Star Game tickets were worth their weight in gold last year!

The 2010 will be taking place at the new Dallas Cowboys Stadium, where more than 100,000 All-Star Game ticket holders will be screaming their heads off. If all seats are filled, heck even if half the seats are, the 2010 All Star Game will blow away the previous record for most attendees at a basketball game, 44,735 at the 1989 All-Star Game. That should be a wonderful time, so be sure that you have NBA All Star Game tickets for that premier event.
