Hello and welcome to the game theory podcast. I'm your host Sam Vucini. Today we're going to talk about a fixed all-star game, maybe, rejuvenated all-star game, exciting game where Anthony Edwards and Kauai Leonard and Victor Wimbunyama really went after it. It was really, really fun. We'll talk about why we think this works as a format.

And then we're also going to do something called the Tank Commanders Sickos draft.

We will explain as we go through it. There are rules. It is complicated. We will discuss.

But first, let's hit the music.

Thanks.

What is this going to be? Are you kidding?

I promise you a surprise for this episode, and it's not quite ready.

So I will bring that to you a little bit later into the episode.

My surprise is not this All-Star game that was actually enjoyable to watch.

This, I will be honest, I didn't see a whole lot of anything before today.

I expected today to be a joke and us to clown about it for five or ten minutes and then get to the rest of the episode.

And then all of a sudden, I was like, oh, is this good?

Am I, am I just trying to make this good?

Am I bored today?

Am I just missing basketball?

Why am I entertained?

And three of the four quarters were really fun.
