My All Stars

Roses are red,
Violets are Blue.
10 men strong
A one night dream come true.

The All Star game is about 10 men strong. You may argue that its the 10 best players in the league should be starting in the all star game. I think the 10 guys who make their team better should be starting in this game. The 10 men who make the sport better. So who are they? Well here is who is starting.
East- Center: Dwight Howard (Orlando) Forward: Kevin Garnett (Boston), LeBron James (Cleveland)Guard: Jason Kidd (New Jersey), Dwyane Wade (Miami)
West- Center: Yao Ming (Houston) Forward: Carmelo Anthony (Denver), Tim Duncan (San Antonio) Guard: Kobe Bryant, (L.A. Lakers), Allen Iverson (Denver)

Who must be immediately taken away from this list? Yao first. Jason Kidd Second. Dwayne Wade this year has to go, two years ago he should have been the top vote getter. Carmelo and AI have to go. And on the fence should be Kobe. A case can be made on both sides for them to start a 3 forward or 3 guard lineup.

My lineup-
East- Lets get KG out of the way, because he is the so dominant and the best player in the game. He is the man who makes that team go. The other forward Should be Caron Butler. The best player on the Wiz. Thats right, better than even Gilbert. Caron has this team playing team ball for the first time. Caron should not be pushed aside when Gilbie comes back, he deserves to be the number one option. I hope Washington really thinks about their options if Gilbert opts out.
The East will start a center, because Dwight Howard is that good. He is Shaq 10 years ago. He is the future of the NBA.
It gets really hairy in the back court. I would love to see a point guard like Jose Calderon get in. He is great, and can help any team. But Chauncy Billups really should be starting in this game. Kidd is done and not a starter anymore. He is on the edge of his career, about to fall down hill.
And lastly, but not least, Lebron. He has the Cavs above 500 and they are just not good at all. Without him, that team is battling Miami for the celler.


West- And at guard for your Western Conference Stars, Chris Paul! Chris Paul is The best player and leader of the best team in the West. He must start in this game. Kobe on the fence any other year , playing like a beast. He scores like every other year. But unlike any other year, he makes his team better. The 500 Lakers are 27-14 and that is because Kobe is making them that much better.
The Western front court should round out with a surprising name and Tim Duncan. Duncan is the best player on the best team for many years. He does deserve the start. Lamarcus Aldridge is all star material. Portland may be unstoppable once Greg Oden comes back.
And lastly, who is the 5th? Chris Kamen is playing out of his mind. But no. Yao, No..
Carlos Boozer keeps the Utah Jazz on pace by getting a double double every night. I would love to throw Nash in a 3 guard All star lineup, but Boozer is the starter that deserves it.

Lets add a couple reserves. In the West, AI, Carmelo, Yao, Dirk, Nash, Brandon Roy, and Chris Kamen

The East, Calderon, Bosh, Wade, Joe Johnson, Gerald Wallace, Shaq, and Ray Allen.
