I know I'm in the minority here in being one that actually watches and follows the nba. All-Star game a little over a month away. Here are the starters on my ballot:
East (these picks were relatively easy)
G-Dwayne Wade - the only one I struggled with. He hasn't been as strong coming back form injury, but is there really anyone better at his position in the East?
G-Chauncey Billups - the biggest reason the Pistons are still a title threat
F-LeBron James - no brainer
F-Kevin Garnett - ditto
C-Dwight Howard - ditto
West(much more interesting)
G-Kobe Bryant - the only easy one
G-Chris Paul - lots of depth at pg in the West - but this one was actually easy too.
F-Josh Howard - I love his all around game, he can score anywhere on the floor in a variety of ways and he's a great defender
F-Carlos Boozer - a bit of a biased pick but he has some monstrous numbers this season 23.5 pts 55% shooting, 11.3 boards. He makes a good enough argument to pick over Duncan. He's 2nd in the NBA among power forwards in PER.
C-Yao Ming - This one was tough. Amare Stoudamire is having a monster year but still feel Ming is the better overall center. He's not shooting a great percentage but still dropping 21+ and 11 boards in a new offense.
