Ok... Here are the 2012 NBA All Stars line up for both East and West... What do you guys think?
Eastern Conference:
Guards: Derrick Rose (Chicago), Dwyane Wade (Miami)
Forwards: LeBron James (Miami), Carmelo Anthony (New York)
Center: Dwight Howard (Orlando)

Western Conference
Guards: Kobe Bryant (Los Angeles Lakers), Chris Paul (Los Angeles Clippers)
Forwards: Kevin Durant (Oklahoma City), Blake Griffin (Los Angeles Clippers)
Center: Andrew Bynum (Los Angeles Lakers)

My 2cents... Too many LAs... lol..  I mean they are all good, but don't think Griffin should be there before Love or Aldridge. Those two are much better than him except they are not playing in the big markets so not too many fans know about their games. Also, Melo is not having an All Star year so he also should thank his fans voting him in...

IMO, this year's All-star starters are the best in terms of match-up in years! For the first time in a while fans actually got their voting 'right', and picked the best at those positions.

For example, D12 vs Bynum? Two guys have been involved in possible trade talks between themselves! Kobe vs D-Wade? Another juicy match-up that needs no explanation. And how about LBJ vs. Durant? Supposedly the two top SFs in the game today! CP3 vs Rose? And Griffin vs Amare! Man, I can't wait for the ASG this year!

East ...

I agree with you in all aspect. Kevin Love and LaMarcus Aldrige should be starters.

I also realize another factor too. This is all-star game! It's all about showcasing your showmanship. Personally I wouldn't want to see either of these two boys doing post up in an all-star game. (This is why Tim Duncan didn't make the list this year. ) You got someone like Blake Griffin who loves to jump. Fans are paying to see either Kobe or CP3 throwing lobs to him and he will make something spectacular. Don't worry, these two boys + Ricky Rubio will make the list as reserves. Either DeAndre Jordan or Nene will also make the list for the West. I have a feeling Rudy Gay or Marc Gasol would also make the list too. Russell Westbrook will make it. That's for West side.

As East looks like wide open for everyone. Chris Bosh, Amare Stoudemire, Joe Johnson, Josh Smith and Paul Pierce will make it. Maybe KG. That is a huge MAYBE!!! Deron William should be in there. If the progress goes like this, I could see Danny Granger, Brandon Jennings and  Andre Igudola crack into the reserves too. That's my take.

West coach either Scott Brooks (Thunder) or George Karl (Nuggets) would be strong candidate.
East coach either Tom Thibodeau (Bulls) or Erik Spoelstra (Heat) as strong candidate.

This is me bullshitting. I could be wrong.

I really missed Shaq and AI as all-star regulars. Especially Shaq! Dude always bring something funny to the all-star game.

He might no be playing. But he still can bring it to the game as doing the boardcast...

I wasn't surprised that Griffin was named as the starter, because he's playing in LA and he's very entertaining. I was just fuzzing because I would like to see either Love or Aldridge instead...  lol...

我都好掛住Shaq同AI
Shaq應該都會出現 好似平時做節目咁 係節目度除褲都夠膽
希望佢都會在場放下笑彈啦
AI出現機會好低 連Andre Igudola既票數都入唔到頭十
有點驚訝 我無投LBJ果一票就係投左Andre Igudola

仲有好掛住Yao 2003-2011參加左8次All Stars (除2010)
無左我地中國代表 硬係覺得爭D咁

All-star starters are voted by fans, while reserves are voted by coaches and (if I am not wrong) the local media members from each NBA cities. One note though, coaches are not allowed to vote for his own players, so in a way it is somewhat 'fair'.

Jeremy Lin can ball! Feel so happy for him!

So you think K-Love played dirty on this play? It surely doesn't look good from where I see it. If it is up to me, he should be rewarded with a 2-game suspension minimum.

I was surprised that he got to play that much. But the Knicks were struggling big time and opened the door for Line to play. Happy for him since I think he can play, kind of like Nash's type of game...

OneBigBanana

LA Clippers are really working hard this season, after signed CP3, Butler and Billups before the season started. They also recently signed Kenyon martin, and going after JR Smith... Definately they are scarily loaded...

Juwan5

Re: Jeremy Lin.... I know he can ball. And that's why he made it to the NBA for a reason. Yes it is his ethnicity helps him out but at the end of the day, it is his game that actually helps him. Look at Yi JianLiang. I won't say much until now. If Jeremy can consistently play like this through the rest of the season than I could say he is legit thread. As of now is way too early to say anything.

Re: Kevin Love's dirty play.... In today's game, Kevin would get suspended. In my opinion, the stepping onto Scola's face looks like an accident more than intention. Besides, it is part of the big men's game. Mixing it up underneath the basket requires a lot of rough and physical play.

Re: Clippers pursusing JR Smith... personally speaking, I want to see Clippers to do well. Getting JR is like getting ticking time bomb into their roster. There is a love and hate for JR Smith. Love of his game but hate his locker influence.

I blame myself for using the wrong wording there on Lin. I certainly know he CAN ball, after all he didn't make it to the association for nothing. I actually meant I didn't know he can ball like that the other night. But then you are also correct. He needs to keep it going on a regular basis before we should really give him the credit.

And on K-Love, sorry, I must respectfully disagree with you there. Watch the video again, and I am fairly sure there was no incidental contact on Scola's face. K-Love should know better about where Scola might have fell after that obvious hard foul (he got away with a personal foul no less!), yet he made no attempt in avoiding Scola. Regardless, let's wait and see how the league is going to handle it. I'd say 2-game suspension minimum without pay!

And I agree on all points on JR Smith... seriously, do guys called JR all have issues? JR Rider was another nut case... geez... lol

OneBigBanana

JR Smith is the type of players that you don't know it will be the good or the bad one showing up... However, he can flat out ball when he has the right mind to it...
Actually, I kind feel for the JR comments... Totally forgot about JR Rider until you mentioned it...  lol...

HighlanderZ

@ Juwan5... JR Reid ain't completely 'innocent' if you will. IIRC he intentionally hard foul AC Green in 1995, broke several of his teeth, and almost ended Green's longest consecutive game played streak right there.
