They didn't play defense in the 1998 All-Star game, either.

The whole game is on Youtube

I watched about 10 minutes of that clip. This clip doesn't support your point in the least bit.

While they weren't playing with the intensity of a full regular season game. They were most definitely putting forth a lot more effort than the all-star games of today.

They aren't running any sort of offense, and the guys in general are having fun, but you can tell they are actually competing out there. Dikembe and Mutombo alone played more defense and blocked more shots than the entire 2024 game. And that was just in 10 minutes.
