This guy is well-versed in both the NBA and the All-Star Game. He wrote about the NBA for 44 years, mostly for the Boston Globe, and is regarded by some as the greatest basketball writer of all time.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Sportswriter Bob Ryan calls NBA All-Star Game \u2018disgraceful farce\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/m3Ma8c4Ebb\">https:\/\/t.co\/m3Ma8c4Ebb<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/4u0GYKypA7\">pic.twitter.com\/4u0GYKypA7<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Awful Announcing (@awfulannouncing) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/awfulannouncing\/status\/1759435533993095199?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 19, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>He therefore had a few things to say about the current nature of the NBA&#8217;s mid-season event.
