The annual NBA All-Star game will be held on February 19th in Phoenix, AZ. Here are my picks for East/West starters.
Eastern Conference:
Rajon Rondo, Boston Celtics PG
Rondo is the real deal. Serious PG skills on a veteran squad.
Joe Johnson, Atlanta Hawks G
Joe Johnson has made the Atlanta Hawks a contender. Enough said.
Dwight Howard, Orlando Magic C
If I started a franchise today and I had to pick my center, this guy is a no-brainer.
Kevin Garnett, Boston Celtics F
My favorite NBA player is still living his rebirth in the league. He is playing the best basketball of his career right now.
LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers F
The future star of 41 games a year at Madison Square Garden is simply put playing the best basketball of his short career/best basketball on the planet, let alone the league.
Western Conference:
Chris Paul, New Orleans Hornets PG
Sorry Jason Kidd and Steve Nash, you have officially been dethroned.
Kobe Bryant, Los Angeles Lakers G
The second best player in the league right now next to LBJ23.
Shaquille O'Neal, Phoenix Suns C
A) I do NOT want to see Yao Ming start (or even play for that matter)
B) Kobe and Shaq reunite for what could be the last time ever.
Amare Stoudemire, Phoenix Suns F
Amare is quietly averaging 21.8 pts and 8.5 rebs a game on a team that is about to be blown up.
Pau Gasol, Los Angeles Lakers F
Nearly forgotten in the city of Memphis, Pau is producing in his first full season as a Laker.
