I'm looking forward to this game more than any All Star game in recent memory. The league is so full of young, amazing talent, that I think it'll be a great game. I think the crunch time lineups for each conference have to be

EAST

Kidd
Wade
Bron
KG
Howard

WEST

Paul
Kobe
Melo
Boozer
Duncan

The West lineup is tougher, because its tough to leave out Dirk, Nash, etc. Either way this will be a fun game to watch for sure.

I dont want to hate on the guy too much, but thats a little ridiculous. I was trying not to mention that, and theres absolutely no way he should be in over KG or LeBron, although he is a great player.

IDK, maybe Baku or someone else could answer this, but if Kidd gets traded in the next couple weeks to Dallas or Denver, would he still start for the East, would he switch to the West, or just not play? It gets especially murky considering he is starting. Im not sure if there is a precedence for this.

When do they announce the reserves? I thought it was today

Also, way to keep Al Thornton out of the rookie game, assholes....I know his playing time has been sporadic but he deserves to be there

My vote for this all-star game goes to Pacman & his posse.

I had a bill on the manager of the strip club & his henchmen last year, I still haven't recovered financially.....

When big Al starts playing defense, he might get the call.

Had to bump this and be the first to say that those jerseys are probably the most ugly and confusing I've ever seen. 4 different colors on the floor, its driving me mad.

I turned on the game and couldn't tell who was on what team.
Worst Uniforms Ever

Not quite. I absolutely hated when players wore their own team's jersey. At any given point, there could be 10 different jersey types on the court. That was tough to look at.

I thought this was an awesome All Star game. From Lebron and Howard doing their thing in the 2nd quarter, Chris Paul controlling the pace for the West in the 4th, Ray Allen lifting the East in the 4th. Amare vs Dwight was pretty fun to watch also. I thought it was among the best of the past 5 years or so.

i watched for about 5 minutes, and it looked awesome on the HD. however, after 5 minutes of up and down with no defense, that was enough for me. better than the pro bowl, though.

oh yeah, and the uniform situation was ridiculous. what a dumb-ass idea. it took me 3 of my 5 viewing minutes to figure out how come 4 teams were on the floor.

Yeah its annoying that they never have games the day after. I see why they wouldnt from the players perspective, but its annoying nonetheless.
