Who is the least deserving? Wade?

Isn't Shaq tied with Jordan for most All star starts?

Man Jason Kidd is starting in the East? Shows the lack of pgs in the East.

No..it shows that JKidd is averaging almost a triple double per game. Bad team or not, that's pretty outstanding.

Shaq has 14, Jordan has 13 because he missed one with an injury.

Wait, Big Ben did not make it? Or Tyrus? David Stern conspiracy?

This just in, Dwayne Wade was just kicked off the All-star team following his turnover in the last seconds which made Miami lose its 15th straight game. Rumor has it Chris Duhon will replace him.

according to your logic, all starting pg's avg nearly a triple double.

in related news, tyrus will be an all star reserve but fail to get out of the coach's doghouse

Really? All staring pgs average close to 11.4 pts, 8.3 rebs, and 10.5 assists? I don't get what you're trying to say. If that's not almost a triple double per game, I don't know what is.

Definitely! I am glad that Mcgrady is not on the team-- he would have been even more least deserving. Be really interesting who fills out the bench on the AS team. Anyone know when that will be announced?

well, No Iverson in the east and Arenas has been out so Kidd gets the start but I think it would be fun to watch.

I think East Starters are BETTER.

i read what you wrote as: because he is starting, he avgs a triple double.. i know what you meant, but it sounded funny to me.

Sorry, I just re-read it and found nothing wrong with what I originally said. No care.

Anyways, the fans voted in two Nuggets but didn't even get the right one. If any one on that team should be an allstar, it should be Camby. Guy is a monster.

I would really prefer if the players voted for the starters instead. And for the coaches to vote for the reserves. The fans can just vote for the MVP from the top players selected by the fourth quarter or something. Its not as though the fans are going to drink themselves to death because they won't be able to vote for the starters anymore..

Graden agree 100% with you. Nash is the best pg in the NBA still, NO hot streak does not put Paul ahead of Nash just like that. Do you guys think Brandon Roy will get a spot on the team?
