LAS VEGAS - The Eastern Conference turned the NBA's big game in Las Vegas into a dud. Overmatched by the West — or perhaps worn out from a weekend of partying in Sin City — the East bumbled its way to a 153-132 loss Sunday night in the All-Star game.
Kobe Bryant had 31 points and six of the West's record 52 assists and was the game MVP. Amare Stoudemire added 29 points for the West, which quickly built a big lead and held it this time, a year after blowing a 21-point cushion in a loss in Houston.
LeBron James scored 28 points for the East, and Dwight Howard had 20 points and 12 rebounds, but offense wasn't the problem — the East allowed a record 69 field goals.

Go Kobe it's your birthday. I know it's silly but I love to watch him play ball.
Too bad the game wasn't on regular T.V. I did read that brokers were charging 20k for tickets. It is too bad the NBA has become more of business than entertainment. But, it would have been awesome to see Kobe Bryant.
