I have no idea how Pierce made it over Granger. Reputation vote I guess. Also Rondo is definitely one of the 12 best players in the East. |

Joe Johnson? do they have to take a player from the Hawks or something? |

there's no question Rubio would be massively entertaining in an all-star game |

Haven't checked stats on either, but after their slow starts, admitted out of shapeness <-----word?, and several games missed by both players, I don't believe Pierce or Dirk should've made it. All that said, the biggest snub is Jeremy Lin. Dammit man.....you have a Daytona 5OO to be focusing on that day. You must then channel your innner Dave Despain and talk about the race for 1O plus hours after the drop of the checker. |

They should scrap the East/West and do this for the regular game - except just choose 2 players to be captains, like LeBron/Kobe and eventually LeBron/Durant or Rose/Durant. |

As a fan, I'll always have the memories of that 50-point performance at Golden State to fall back on. That's about it. |

When your PG looks to shoot first and isn't that good of a shooter that's a bad combination |

Good to see the Bulls' Luol Deng, torn wrist and all, along with the Sixers' Andre Iguadola make this year's NBA All-Star team on the Eastern Conference squad, very likely to be coached by the Bulls' own Tom Thibodeau. This despite Coach Thibs trying to downplay it in the postgame after their win over the Hornets Wednesday night. |

Stealing ideas from Barkely huh? That idea has been talked about since the 90's. |
