Tyler called it one of the worst all star teams he has ever seen, but all the East Division All Stars did was break a four-game losing streak to the West while scoring the most points by any team in All Star Game history.
The 106 points eclipsed the previous record of 102 set by the East in Season 21. The West scored 100 in last season's overtime win.
This was the third 100-point game in All Star history and the first time the two teams combined for 200 points.
20-PLUS GVP PERFORMANCES
-- T.KANES MASTERSON of Philadelphia was the All Star Game MVP, leading the winning team with 23 points, tying for top honors in rebounding with 5 and getting 1 assist.
-- Dallas point guard Yu Raing, playing in his first All Star Game, delivered 20 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal.
-- Philadelphia forward Bruce Hammer scored 14 points, grabbed 5 boards and registered a pair of assists.
