    surprised Gasol made it after missing so many games there were plenty of other notable guards who could have made it..or even Chris Kaman

    Sounds about right. Really happy for Zbo, Rondo, G-Force, and Horford. All of them have been exceptional this year. Especially Zbo... Memphis wouldn't be anywhere near where they are without him.

    one is a laker, and one is a clipper. but yes, gasol doesn't deserve to be there. he's been struggling for a stretch before a great game last night.

    i was surprised rose made it b/c of the bulls' record. but he has been TEARING IT UP since the injury. he went from 15ppg to like 20ppg now and he's not slowing down.

    Derrick Rose should not have made it... Not sure about Al Horford either.

    I think Chris Kaman should have made it over Pau Gasol.

    Chris Kaman is rolling in his grave right now.

    He's a Laker. Lakers gotta have at least 2 participants. I personally would have liked to have seen Monta Ellis as one of those notable guards.

    I thought Stephen Jackson should have made it.

    Yet another article misspells Pau's name.

    ... Which is awesome, because he's a Laker.

    Good call. I would've taken him over Paul Pierce or Horford. Probably over Pierce but he's a Celtic and Horford is breaking out this year and Hawks are rolling.

    I'm guessing the OP's computer auto corrected it to Paul because if you click on the article it says Pau.

    I was kind of shocked to see that Pierce made it. A lot of Hawks fans had Josh Smith making it. If 2 Hawks were going to make it I figured it would be Smith over Horford.

    I agree with the West choices, that I wouldn't have had a problem switching out Gasol with Billups.

    Horford is a center, so Horford wasn't competing with Smith, Gerald Wallace was competing with Smith and I think Wallace deserved it.

    Minus rose in the east 2k10's idea of the all star teams were pretty accurate.

    Wish David Lee would have made it, but can't really argue with the teams all too much (although Pierce and Horf are questionable in the East).

    David Lee is a monster.

    He should be on the All Star Team without question.
