KG gets picked as a Starter...
Now there's a guy that doesn't deserve to be a Starter. Thank god for him that it's a fan vote.

Ingles13 - Think your on the mark, but I would have Noah over Bosh, and I think Lillard is VERY unlucky

Hard to not have a chicago player. I actually had Noah in when I was typing it but looked up Bosh's numbers and just have him the nod. Both deserve IMO so if they both get picked them I'm fine with it.

Of the 10 starting 5 players, and the 30 teams to choose those players from, only 6 teams are represented. That tells you a lot about the NBA.

How does KG & Dwight get into this game?
Fans vote but wow KG is a champ but is past it at All Star Level & Dwight has been injured and hasn't really put up any consistant numbers in a losing franchise!

I think the all star game isn't what it used to be, there's no real feeling or defence. A team USA v World game would have much more feeling and most people would actually remember who won each year, I don't think anyone remembers much about ASGs except the ones with MVPs that had a back story - Magic '92, Kobe/Shaq post 'feud', Pippen in '94 etc.

People are probably more interested in the dunk comp than the game!

Boring boring boring... When they start actually playing basketball it will be worth paying to go to, and taking time out of day to watch on TV...
