This will be crazy in New York. Within a 3 year span between 2015-2018, it is very possible that the city will host the NBA All-Star game twice. One year it would be at MSG, and the other at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Last time the marquee event was in New York was back in 2000. Hit the jump to see the info.

Multiple league sources maintain that the 2015 All-Star Game will be played at Madison Square Garden on Sunday of All-Star weekend with the Friday and Saturday night events – the skills, shooting and dunk competitions – set for Barclays Center. According to The league and both the Nets and Knicks still are negotiating on a proposal to have a reversal in either 2017 or 2018 — Brooklyn would stage the game while the Knicks and the Garden would serve as host for the Friday and Saturday events. The Nets, sources said, are not completely sold on the host role down the road for a myriad of reasons.
Either way having the biggest event on the NBA schedule, with the exception of the Finals in New York would have the city and fans going crazy.
