Imagine an NBA All-Star Game where one superstar broke another's nose by playing aggressive defense at the rim in the third quarter.

Picture one of the best players in NBA history angrily chiding another all-time great at the final horn because one of them passed up taking the final shot.

These things happened in the same All-Star Game, and not that long ago. In the 2012 game in Orlando, Dwyane Wade fractured Kobe Bryant's nose to prevent a layup with eight minutes left in the third quarter.
