2. Chris Bosh and Joe Johnson- DESERVING solid perennial All Star

3. Jameer Nelson- DESERVING toss up between him and Rajon Rondo

4. Paul Pierce- NOT DESERVING he's not even having an All Star season, Ray Allen deserves this spot..

5. Rashard Lewis- NOT DESERVING not having All Star numbers, Vince Carter is having a resurgent season, he deserves this spot

    wow dude you are so on! so exactly true.

    here's my thoughts:

    yeah, I mean how can Al not get in, but David West? The guy has not missed any games this season, and David West points and rebounds are down this year.

    Paul Pierce? *sigh* look at his stats, they are nothing compared to Vince’s, and with two other all-stars on the team, of course they’d be winning, but he hasn’t done much individually.

    Nelson is understandable, but Rashard Lewis? Do the magic really deserve 3 all-stars? Lewis is having a great year, so is Nelson, but Carter is way more deserving.

    I’d have put Ray Allen as the wildcard over Lewis, and put VC as a forward instead of Pierce…

    *sigh*

    VC, your having a great year, and I know you’d rather sleep, but if you went in, people could realize even more that you were having one of your best seasons in quite a while, and have been the leader, and the best player on this team.

    I just wish Devin could have talked about Vince more. I mean when he was talking on TNT, he just talked about how “I knew that I can become a very good player, I’ve got all the skills, me and Frank were solid.”

    They had to drag out him talking about Vince, god…no respect.

    Congratulations Harris, hopefully by the end of the season, you proved you deserve it.

    I’m not asking for an injury, but I just hope Vince gets some recognition, being over guys like Mo and Ray.

    Don’t worry VC, I know your a true all-star.

    1. harris and granger have solid stats. they're in.

    2. bosh yes. joe johnson no. i'd give the shot to antawn jamison.

    3. both nelson and rondo are not all-star caliber players. it's either vince carter or ray allen.

    4. paul pierce: pierce is a household name. his stats aren't that bad considering celts have been blowing other teams out. he's in

    5. rashard lewis: no effing way. vinceanity, ray ray. hell even caron butler is more deserving

    1. shaq: hell yeah

    2. pau gasol and dirk: dirk yes. gasol no. i would rather see al jefferson, carmelo anthonyandrew, bynum, biedrins, camby. pau is soft and he doesn't add anything to the lakers team. he's a complementary player.

    3. b-roy, and billups: billups yes. b-roy is no "perennial" all-star. this is steve nash's spot or carmelo's

    4. david west: 7 rebounds per game is pathetic for a power forward. this is al jefferson's spot

    5. parker: i would take steve nash over parker anyday, especially when parker missed almost a month due to injury. deron williams also got snubbed here.

    It cant be Doc Rivers, get your regulations immediately, peculiarly earlier than mocking Mo Williams. You cant educate the staff 2 years in a row, so if the Cavs win this night, Mike Brown is the educate. And Mo Williams is far higher then Harris or Rose. Jameer and Mo are deserving and Mo has had a higher have an impact on on his staff then any individual within the Eastern Conference.

    Deron Williams is healthy and deserves to be on it!
