Riots, terrorist attacks or a deadly confrontation between rival rap labels - if anything happens as NBA All-Star events take place this week, Denver police and the FBI will be ready.

The two agencies have been meeting with NBA and city officials since last fall to plan security for the weeklong event that is expected to bring an additional 75,000 to 100,000 people into downtown Denver.
