The NBA may have some new All-Star game rules very shortly.

According to ESPN, Clippers point guard Chris Paul called commissioner Adam Silver following this year's version in New Orleans, after his Western Conference side won 192-182.

The report states that Silver thinks players like Paul and owners like Michael Jordan could meet like they did during collective bargaining to discuss ways to improve the All-Star Game. 

Among the possible rules changes, captains would be allowed to pick their own starters, there could be a 4-point shot added to some spots on the floor and there could even be a 10-point half-court shot. 

All of these changes would be strictly for the All-Star game only. No one wants to see players chucking up half-court shots on a regular basis.

"We will change it by next year," Silver said of the All-Star game.

It seems as though the players and fans alike are tired of watching a meaningless game near 200 points year-in and year-out without any consequences.
