Who will Stern pick to replace Jameer Nelson at Allstar game

Since Jameer Nelson is out for the Allstar game, who do you think will end up taking his spot? Hopefully it's David Lee, but we know it's not going to be that easy.

Would Stern replace Nelson with a guard or a forward? I think it's definitely going to be either Ray Allen, Mo Williams, or David Lee.

Maurice Williams, no doubt.

I don't know if it's that simple.

Ray Allen's stats:
PPG 18.0
RPG 3.4
APG 2.8
SPG 1.0
BPG 0.1
FG% 0.497
FT% 0.940
3P% 0.411
MPG 36.2

Mo Williams' stats:
PPG 17.3
RPG 3.3
APG 4.2
SPG 0.8
BPG 0.1
FG% 0.468
FT% 0.942
3P% 0.394
MPG 33.8

They are just about even on FT%. Allen has the slight edge on Williams in FG% and FT%. Williams has the slight edge on assists while Allen has a very slight edge on points.

It's a very tough call.

Yeah they prob gunna replace a guard with a guard so either williams or allen. Its the allstar game though so maybe Lee gets the go ahead it wouldnt surprise me.

Maybe Stern will throw the Knicks and Lee a bone after giving us the shaft on the Mobely exemption.

You think Nate should be picked as an allstar? I'm wondering what you meant by your question.

If not Lee, I think Duhon should be considered as an all-star. People rave about Rondo, but honestly, does Rondo have that much over Duhon?

Sadly enough that's what's most likely to happen.

Mo Williams and Ray Allen arent all stars this year

Wiretap says that the Magic could look to deal for a point guard since Anthony Johnson is their last resort. Do you think they would be interested in Marbury either through trade or free agency? I'm sure Magic fans don't want him anywhere near their team but do you think management would consider the acquisition?

Will Granger play???He seems to be hurt and they are saying he will play these next couple of games hurt so I cant possibly see him playing in the All Star Game.He is a F so that should open up a spot for Lee

If Granger shuts it down (I doubt it though), Lee goes. For Jameer, I think you go PG and add Mo.

It should be Ray Allen.

Mo Williams, although a case should be made for Ray Allen, But I really wish they would take D Lee, He's also very deserving. They could stop all this Maddness and just name 15 to the Each team 30 All-Stars, also this way they no longer need to name injury replacements it will already be built in. Your Thoughts?
