My All Star Votes As Of Now

November 30, 2007

I don’t vote on my all star until the game starts to get closer but I would like the name the people I would vote for if I were to vote today.

East

Dwight Howard

Lebron James

Ray Allen

Jason Kidd

The East would be easy to pick. Guys like Wade, Jermaine O’neal and Arenas have been hurt. Shaq has fallen off a lot. Jason Kidd and Lebron are racking up triple double so you can’t leave either of them off. The only selection you could argue with is Ray Allen. You could make a case for him to be bumped for Caron Butler or his teammate Paul Pierce, or you could drop Lebron to the 2 and put Rashard Lewis at the 3 but I will stick with Allen at the 2.

West

Yao Ming

Tim Duncan

Stephen Jackson

Kobe Bryant

Steve Nash

The West was not as easy as the East, especially at the 1 and 3. I was tempted to go with Baron Davis at the 1 because I think he is the best PG in the NBA. Take out the excessive 3 pointers and the injuries and this guy should get more love from fans. Due to the fact that his team lost the first six games and the fact that Nash is a better shooter and his team has a better record I had to go with Nash.

At the 3 spot I was tempted to go with Melo, Josh Howard, Shawn Marion, and T-Mac but I decided to go with Stephen Jackson. The Warriors have been tearing up the league since he came back. He is averaging 22 points, 6 boards, and 5 assists. This guy is very important to the team and their record shows it.
