 NBA Live 2003 Review - Xbox
NBA Live still has the best post-up and isolation game of any basketball video game, and thanks to the Freestyle controls, players can palm the ball or hold it out in the post before making one of several moves on their way to the basket.
NBA Live follows the mold of NHL with its combination of a technical sim and arcade shooter, and the finished product will be enjoyed by both run-and-gun streetballers and old-school five-on-fivers.
After tinkering with an entirely new game in the lab, the developers at EA Canada came up with a winner: NBA Live 2003.

 NBA Live 2005 - GameCube (GC) Reviews - The Armchair Empire
Though the All-Star Weekend feature is likely to be popular, in the end it is the Season and Franchise modes that make a sports game.
All game and anime imagery is the property of their respective owners.
Like those games, Live 2005 allows for a degree of micro-management beyond what the casual fan would require, but, in contrast, Live doesn’t have the mini-games, training options, coaching options, or team strategy options to add depth to the decisions.

By the time the NBA All-Star game was held in Charlotte, N.C., the following February, a sufficiently impressed Stern had a Japanese production crew produce the game in high-definition, not only to fuel interest in the NBA in Japan, but also to show the virtues of the budding technology to the team owners back home.
To one day run all NBA games on NBA TV "would not be feasible," he says.
Stern believes that with fewer games on ABC, ratings should go up, not only on ABC but also on ESPN and Turner, the latter having an exclusive Thursday-night window in which no other outlet -- including the regional spots networks that have local rights -- will be permitted to air an NBA game.

 SI.com - 2003 NBA All-Star Game - West rallies to win in double OT - Monday February 10, 2003 02:58 AM
To say the Eastern Conference bench was surprised by the foul called on Jermaine O’Neal with one second left in overtime of Sunday’s NBA All-Star Game -- a ruling that enabled Kobe Bryant to tie the game at the foul line and offset Michael Jordan’s earlier heroics -- was an understatement.
Jordan said goodbye to the All-Star Game with his eyes teary and his game a bit blemished as the West beat the East 155-145 in double overtime Sunday night.
The first basket of the game was scored by Yao, the 7-foot-5 center from China who supplanted Shaquille O'Neal as a starter in fan balloting.

 FlyersPhans.com :: The Best All Star Game of Them All
To be sure, there is some of this in each of the other all star games too, but during the skills competition, ESPN does such a great job of getting you “up close and personal” with the NHL all stars that you genuinely sense you’re seeing the real guys in their “natural habitat”.
Whenever polling on this matter takes place, the baseball all star game usually finishes first in popularity, even though football is clearly the most popular sport in the country and certain people want you to believe that basketball will surpass baseball in overall popularity any day.
So it turns out that in recent years, my favorite all star game — in fact, the only one I make a point of watching — is the NHL all star game.
