Idk about this :patrice:
The four teams would face each other in matchups -- for instance, Team 1 versus Team 3 and Team 2 versus Team 4 -- and the winners move on to the final round of the tournament

NBA team executives, coaches and players have discussed new All-Star Game concepts with league officials over the past six months, including extensive conversations at the summer league in Las Vegas in July. There have been discussions for a fresh and creative path forward for the All-Star Game, and this quick-burst, four-team tourney among the game's greatest players gained momentum among all parties, according to sources.

All this sounds good and I'm with it, but they need an incentive to compete.

The league needs to make up its mind. Do they want all star weekend to be a time for players to unwind, mess around and have fun, or do they want people to be entertained? They need some player incentive to get to that middle ground.
