Jermaine O'neal more than likely won't play cos of his injury, I'd love to see the bemches! Hopefully Billups or Rip get a seat!

Nice, yet predictable lineup. Nice to see Nash getting a starting spot in there.
p.s yao should be benched immediately after tip off and not return :-D

agreed ELG hopefully Avery J does the right thing and benches yao infront of the houston fans and replaces him with non other then Erick Dampier u can take T Mac out and put Dirk in aswell

Josh Childress? You don't mean Josh Smith do you ELG?
Anyway, neither of them deserve to play in the all-star game.
I agree with you Hamma, Bosh should get in there, and I hope Baron Davis gets a spot also.

Bosh on the bench, but taking JO's spot as a starter, I'm tipping Rasheed Wallace.

Billups has to get a spot on the bench, one of the Wallace's will probably get the call up for Jermaine, RIP will probably get overlooked cant have too many pistons out there! :-)

It will be a travesty cheeze if Marion doesn't get a spot, the guy has matched it with the big blokes given his height disadvantage. I can understand his frustration at the fan voting process, some of those players selected are fighting injuries. Some are injuries babies don't even cry about yet Marion has played through back pain. The guy is on a mission and deserves to be in the West team.
It's terrific though that Steve Nash got a starters' spot. Interesting to see how he works with Kobe Bryant.

True that TR Sheed has played well enough to get a starting gig I would have no problems with him getting it.
Cheeze and 31 I dont think anyone on here would say Marion doesnt deserve a spot in the west
