I am going with the West on this one. They are going to dominate on the inside, and they have the best player in the world on their team. Also, I dont think Wade will be as effective driving it to the basket considering who will be standing in there. My score prediction is going to be....West 124East 115MVP: Dirk Nowitzki: 32

Damn Sigfried & Roy looked pretty sad there.EDIT:hehehe theres Mason giving the Detroit Ballers some special recognition.

sh*t, Dwight is a freak. He get so high on his rebounds. And that offensive rebound, that he put back in for a dunk. That was amazing. Also, did anybody see how high Lebron was when he tried that off the glass dunk. It looked crazy...VC had a nice ass dunk also.Carmelo is playing the best right now for the west, and Dwight is doing really well for the east.
