VIDEO: Giannis Antetokounmpo Locks Down LeBron James in Critical 4th Quarter All-Star Game Possession

I'm gonna say it: the new All-Star Game format is awesome. Sure, you still have the same level of defensive carelessness by these players for the first three quarters, but come the fourth a light turns on. The first-to-157 points format confused many who weren't aware of the change heading into Sunday's action, but for the players, it was a chance to show their competitive nature against the very best. Giannis locking down LeBron James on defense is exactly what we want to see.

The Greek Freak is as competitive as they come, and none of these players want to be the reason their team loses bragging rights. As competitive as James usually is, this could perhaps be a preview of what he has to look forward to in the NBA Finals.
