[layupdrill]

The Starters have been announced:

East

D.Wade
A.Iverson
D.Howard
L.James
K.Garnett

West

K.Bryant
C.Paul
Y.Ming
T.Duncan
A.Stoudemire

Gary Payton and Kenny Smith went at it on TNT, with GP saying Tim Duncan and KG should not start, instead it should be Bosh and Al Jefferson.

[Ghazi]

Dirk should be the starting 3 for the west.. SHOULD be. but alas.

I guess for GP the fact that the Celtics are the Champs and a top 3 team in the East and the Spurs being a top gun in the West means nothing. Give it to Bosh and Jefferson playing on garbage squads.

LMAO I Think Kenny Smith has lost his mind. He didnt even have Chris Bosh on his All Star Team.

[layupdrill]

Kennys arguments are weak as hell...

Payton takin jabs at Kenny Smiths game lmao

[Brickhouse]

Payton is great. Not right about Duncan, but better than Kenny.

Amare and Iverson don't deserve to be starters but who cares.

Maybe or maybe not but that is what the fans wanted. And in the end the games is for the fans and who they want to see. It could have been worse. YI could have been the starter or Sue from the Lakers.

Amare has really had a weak season. I am surprised he has gathered more votes this year than he has in the past.

[MavDynasty]

West:

PG-Kidd
SG-Terry
SF-Wright
PF-Nowitzki
C-Ryan Hollins

with GP saying Tim Duncan and KG should not start, instead it should be Bosh and Al Jefferson.
Is he serious?

[j-money24]

But Melo has not exactly been great this season either

[mogrovejo]

Bosh = empty stats. He disappears when he faces tough opponents and in big games, his defence is highly unreliable. He can't lead a team (at least at this point of his career), his rebounding and scoring are inconsistent from quarter to quarter, his teammates don't know what to expect from him. Lots of potential and nice stats, but he's not All-NBA material.

Big Al is fun to watch, but too inefficient with his scoring.

Dirk and Granger are having better seasons than Bosh and Jefferson. About who starts in the ASG, who cares? It's not supposed to be a meritocracy, there are the All-NBA teams for that.

That said, I hope Garnett has a light injury before the game and stays at home.

[portpower_11]

East:

Harris
Wade
James
KG
Howard


West:
Paul
Kobe
Dirk
AJ
TD

[mardigan]

Paul
Kobe
Roy
Dirk
Duncan




Harris
Wade
Lebron
Bosh
Howard

[MrChug]

Mav morons at their best...wonderful. Bitter fucks.

[Showtime24 LAKERS]

Pau should get voted on the All-star team by the coaches. There's no way David West beats him out for the reserve All-Star spot.

[Indazone]

kewl..Tim Duncan is Yao's wingman again.

[timtonymanu]

I would have wanted Dirk instead of Amare and Devin Harris instead of AI. Other than that, the starters are right.

[layupdrill]

I agree Dirk should be starting
