----------WELCOME TO THE LIVE BLOG OF THE 2013 NBA ALL-STAR GAME--------

Join us for the live blog of the 2013 NBA all star game as we bring you scoring updates, play-by-play and color commentary as the sport's best players collide in an East versus West matchup at 8 pm.

If you can't watch the game the dont worry I'm here to bring you the best jams and update you on which player has the hot hand.

There will be a mixture of old versus new in these games. LeBron James and Kevin Durant are the future of the NBA while Kobe Bryant and Dwyane's careers are winding down.

Though they are in their 30's, their game is still top notch.

It's also important to point out that Chris Paul might be staring at the guard of the future on the East's bench as Kyrie Irving gets ready to participate in his first NBA All-Star game. He's got handle, speed, vision and Irving proved to have a pretty good shot from the perimeter after winning the Three-Point Shootout Saturday night.

(CLICK HERE TO LOOK AT THE STARTING LINEUPS AND ROSTERS)

The West took the game last year as James turned the ball over late in regulation. It will be interesting to see how this one plays out.

If there's a prediction we can make is that there will be a lot of joking around in the first three quarters. Expect the fourth quarter to go down to the wire as usual.

Bryant burst anybodies bubble. He messed up Michael Jordan's last All-Star Game of his career in 2003. Bryant spoiled it for Jordan firing overtime in a game the west eventually took in double OT.

Let's see how intense things get. It's the Easy vs. West. Refresh the page and scroll to the top of the article for the latest live updates.
