2004 all star game Who do you think will be on the starting line up at the 2004 all star game? East: Mcgrady - Guard Iverson - Guard O'Neal - Forward Vince - Forward Wallace - Center ------ *King James - Guard West: Kobe - Guard Marbury - Guard Garnet - Forward Duncan - Forward Shaq - Center ------ *Melo - Forward I really want the east to win this year, and hope James contributes alot, but knowing from the past, the west gonna use their big men to over power them. But if theres a will theres a way.
East: Iverson-g Mcgrady-g Carter-f O'Neal-f Wallace-c West: Francis-g Bryant-g Garnett-f Duncan-f Shaq-c West to win.
East G- Iverson G- Davis F- McGrady F- J Oneal C- Wallce West G- Marbury G- Kobe F- Garnett F- Duncan C- Shaq how the hell did you guys leave out Baron Davis.
East: James - Guard Iverson - Guard O'Neal - Forward Carter - Forward Wallace - Center ------ West: Kobe - Guard Marbury - Guard Garnett - Forward Duncan - Forward Ming - Center ------ I would kill to see what James would do with T-Mac on one side, and Vince on the other....talk about highlight city.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting MVPlaya:</div><div class="quote_post">Your lucky your mod lol Cuz having James at the ALl-Star game is a joke.</div> Mind explaining that for everybody? Remember Yao beating out Shaq last year? It will happen again.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting MVPlaya:</div><div class="quote_post">You really think JAmes deserves this? He is gonna beat out McDrady and Baron Davis?</div> The All-star starters are more about popularity than deserving it. Bron will make it easily because of his popularity and the fact that people want to see him go head ot head with other stars in the All-star game.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting King James:</div><div class="quote_post">The All-Star game is not about who deserves it, it's a popularity contest, an exhibition.</div> Yea, but i asked do you think he deserves it?
placing james in the rookie all star game is like placing warren sapp on a junior league football game. it'll be unfair for the other team, unless they got melo. but who actually watches the rookie-star game? all the hype is on the actual all-star game. and if lebron is a starter of the west all-stars then... highlight reel of the game: lebron dunkin on yao? it can happen. anything can. question: will lebron be in the dunking contest?
We'll see how lebron really does do, I want to see him in the rookie game... do your sayin he'll lead his rookie team to victory?
I think Bron will be, after all, he did sign that huge deal with Coke for Sprite, and they do sponsor the event. "The Sprite Rising Stars Slam Dunk Competition" I personally think that Bron has held back in the dunk contests that he has been in, and is just waiting for the dunk contest in LA, when all eyes will be on him. Thing is, will Melo be in it? Talk about marketing, people would eat that up with those 2. I know many don't think that melo is a great dunker, but I feel he can show us a little something. Will they still keep that 3 year rule in effect as well? Who knows.
most likey. thats only if he can work as a team and feed darko the ball in the paint. King James v.s Melo now that'll be something to look for during the all-star week.
I'm one of those people that don't think Melo is a great dunker... have you seen him in college doin great dunks?
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting MVPlaya:</div><div class="quote_post">I'm one of those people that don't think Melo is a great dunker... have you seen him in college doin great dunks?</div> I have seen him on the break get up high and bring it down hard, with some flavor. I don't think he would do too bad, after all, we have seen people just known for dunking do terrible in this contest. I'll never forget Tony Dumas missing every dunk he tried, that was pathetic. Other jokes were the Baron Davis headband dunk and the Michael Finley cartwheel (well, tried to cartwheel)
I think if Carmelo went in, he would lose, and James owuld probably make it farther. Therefore, that would be bad for Melo.
Lebron will likely replace Mcgrady as a starter.The Fans love Lebron more than T-mac right now...Also If Lebron keeps up the numbers of 16,6 and 6 then he would deserve to make it anyway.I'm more interested in the reserves as we pretty much know who the starters will be for each conference.It's who the coaches select is what should be predicted. Melo won't make the all-star game this year.He has ALOT other players to fight for that SF spot.Marion,Peja,Walker,Jamison,KG..the list could go on really.Melo will play in alot of all-star games in his career but not this year.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting MVPlaya:</div><div class="quote_post">17-6-6... isn't all star performence.</div> I'll let that speak for itself.
