Just wasted Love's spot.

A damn shame.

Oden is injured and will sit out the game.

oh completely missed it. what kind of injury does he have? well isn't there a rule against sitting out games on ASW? I can recall Kobe playing 3 mins last year (or the year before) only to avoid sitting out a suspension later. stupid rule IMO. then again it definitely sucks that they wasted a spot which should have been Love's anyway (not for Oden though)

Is Crunch even there? Or was he asked not to participate?

It happened at the end of last night's game. I'm pretty sure that he went back into the game afterwards. This would be 3 games in 3 nights for him, so I can see why he's sitting it out. Too bad they didn't know sooner so Love could go.

Even if there was time for a replacement, stern would have picked Gallinari or another jerk that plays for a big-market team. The NBA will do anything to keep teams like the T-Wolves off All Star Weekend

Chalmers probably would have flown in first class.

I'm not saying that I can't see why he sits out. I was only wondering about wether there's the rule I mentioned or not.

Yeah I was pissed when I seen that. Greg Oden is seriously 60 years old
