Yahoo! Sports NBA set off a firestorm of angry Hoosiers after posting a video pleading NBA Commissioner Adam Silver to move next year's NBA All-Star Game away from the Circle City.

"This is a flagrant mistake and something must be done," LaJethro Jenkins said in the video.

Jenkins pleads Silver to move the All-Star Game to somewhere warm and created a Change.org petition, which only had about 10 signatures when Yahoo deleted the video from Twitter hours later. Before erasing the tweet from history, Yahoo! did point to the part of the online petition that said the whole thing was a joke. "The NBA couldn't care less. Relax," they wrote on Change.org.


Good. Indy is awesome. And it doesn’t matter where they play it, you can’t please everyone.

Yahoo sports has really fallen without woj and shams

Sounds like a New Orleans football fan who thinks the Super Bowl should always be played in a warm weather city in the south.

NBA All Star Game has been interesting for the last 20 years or so. They’ve gone to Vegas, Cowboys Stadium, and have had multiple weekends in LA, Houston, and NOLA. Would it kill them to come back to the Alamo City?

Yea. Or, just most people in general.

Most people agree it should be a rotation between NOLA, Miami and maybe Tampa.

Add LA and Vegas once stadiums are done
