    I know It's still early but as of now who do you think will be on the roster not only the starters but the bench players as well, I could be wrong but I think these rosters have 10 players instead of 12.

    I think Rookie Dan Gibson should be on the Rookie team.I don't know about the rest but I really think he could make it.

    Yeah, Lowry wouldve made it probably but hes still hurt, Rudy Gay might start at the 2 spot with Roy being hurt so much...and Rudy started at SG for Memphis for a while.

    Considering Tyrus Thomas is barely averaging 10 minutes a game this year, I don't see him as a top rookie or deserving to be on the rookie team this year.I'm looking at a rookies lineup of Starters:1. Randy Foye2. Rudy Gay(I would agree with Memphis Fan, Rudy Gay should get to start at the two.)3. Adam Morrison4. Jorge Garbajosa5. Shelden WilliamsBackups:G) Marcus WilliamsG) Jordan FarmarF) Andrea BargnaniF) Paul MillsapC) Craig SmithI am a huge Brandon Roye fan, but he has been inured most of the year and really is not deserving to be up there because of injuries right now. I think a rookie that is deserving to be an honorable mentione is Yakhouba Diawara, of Denver. I had no idea who he was before this season, but he is playing real good ball and doing alot of things that are not showing up on the stat sheet. Sophmore Starters:1) Chris Paul2) Monta Ellis3) Hakim Warrick4) David Lee5) Andrew BogutBackups:G) Raymond FeltonG) Deron WilliamsF) Charlie VillanuevaF) Channing Frye

    I think that the sophomores are going to run away with this one again....Do you honestly think that Randy Foye can guard Chris Paul or Deron Williams? I certainly dont think so....I think it is funny to see Garbajosa on the rookie team. How old is he again?

    I might put Deron Williams ahead of Monta Ellis for the season he is having.

Williams has been the better player of the two, he rebounds more, he plays better defense, he's tougher, he plays down low more where I want my center at, shooting a better percentage and he is even shooting a better free throw percentage. He is much more deserving to play than Bargnani is.

    It's about basketball, and Williams has played better basketball this season than Bargnani has, and deserves to play over Bargnani.

    No, you're wrong. The whole all star weekend is about offense; not defense. There's no defense being played. It's just a bunch of alley oops, dunks, and jump shots.
