NBA All Star Weekend 2019-THE GAME- Team LeBron vs Team Giannis Preview and Predictions

The All Star Game is finally here!! In this matchup, Team LeBron will be facing off against Team Giannis. LeBron and Giannis both pick players back and forth in a draft-like format until their rosters are complete. This game should be another high scoring affair with both teams most likely scoring well over 130 points. Defense is held to a minimum, and there are many highlights plays throughout the game. Last year, Team LeBron got the victory over Team Stephen 148-145 in a close game. This is the final day of this year's All Star weekend after the Rising Stars Challenge on Friday and the Skills Challenge, 3 Point Shootout, and Dunk Contest yesterday. Here are the rosters and my prediction to win...

Team LeBron Roster:

Starters

LeBron James- LA Lakers

James Harden- Houston Rockets

Kyrie Irving- Boston Celtics

Kawhi Leonard- Toronto Raptors

Kevin Durant- Golden State Warriors

Reserves

LaMarcus Aldridge- San Antonio Spurs

Bradley Beal- Washington Wizards

Anthony Davis- New Orleans Pelicans

Damian Lillard- Portland Trail Blazers

Ben Simmons- Philadelphia 76ers

Klay Thompson-Golden State Warriors

Karl-Anthony Towns- Minnesota Timberwolves

Dwyane Wade- Miami Heat

Team Giannis Roster:

Starters:

Giannis Antetokounmpo- Milwaukee Bucks

Stephen Curry- Golden State Warriors

Joel Embiid- Philadelphia 76ers

Paul George- Oklahoma City Thunder

Kemba Walker- Charlotte Hornets

Reserves:

Blake Griffin- Detriot Pistons

Nikola Jokic- Denver Nuggets

Kyle Lowry- Toronto Raptors

Khris Middleton- Milwaukee Bucks

Dirk Nowitzki- Dallas Mavericks

Victor Oladipo- Indiana Pacers INJURED

D'Angelo Russell- Brooklyn Nets

Nikola Vucevic- Orlando Magic

Russell Westbrook- Oklahoma City Thunder

Prediction:

Both of these teams are completely stacked with talent from the starters to the reserves. All of these players deserve to be an All Star because they are leaders on their respective teams. These players serve as role models to the youngsters and they show them the ropes to be a star in the NBA. That said, I think that Team LeBron has a slight advantage over Team Giannis because of the chemistry he has with Kyrie Irving. They played on the Cavs for a couple years together and are a very deadly duo. This game will be a very close one but Team LeBron should pull out the W in the end.
