    There were/are too many good players out west. I sometimes wonder how much winning a gold medal against Team USA came into play with Manu's one time AS appearance when the coaches voted for him.

    Not much, 'cause if having won a gold medal helps you to get into the all-star game he wouldn't have been snubbed like he was in 07-08.

    RJ could have easily been an all-star when he was in Jersey. but he was overshadowed by Vince Carter and Jason Kidd.

    RJ played forward in the East.

    KG, Bosh, LeBron, Vince Carter, Danny Granger, Paul Pierce snagged all the spots.

    Not much different from Derron Williams still waiting to be an All Star

    Becoming an All-Star is no small feat. Even a player who was a past All-Star player is probably still better than 60% of the NBA at their position/skill.
