The Phoenix Suns trio of two-time Most Valuable Player Steve Nash, Shawn Marion and Amar?

Joining the three Suns as Western Conference reserves are first-time All-Star forward Carlos Boozer of the Utah Jazz, Allen Iverson of the Denver Nuggets, Dirk Nowitzki of the Dallas Mavericks and Tony Parker of the San Antonio Spurs. Two Eastern Conference players are also making their initial All-Star appearance as forwards Caron Butler of the Washington Wizards and Dwight Howard of the Orlando Magic has each been invited to Las Vegas. Guards Chauncey Billups and Richard Hamilton of the Detroit Pistons and Jason Kidd of the New Jersey Nets, forwards Vince Carter of the New Jersey Nets and Jermaine O?Neal of the Indiana Pacers also were named to the Eastern Conference All-Star team.</div>Very, very, well-deserved. :dribble:
Re: Caron to Vegas! This should motivate Caron a lot he is having his best career year this year and he is very deserving of the All-Star pick he received. I know this might sound crazy but he is IMO the most consistent player on the team as he has scored in double figures every game but one(when he had 8 points) and is even rebounding 8 a game. Gilbert has better scoring performances that Butler no doubt but sometimes he is a little wild with his shot and chunks it up too much and one game scored 3 points against the Bucks. Caron is turning into a star and everyone has been waiting for this to happen and it finally has. Caron and the rest of his crew are leading his team to the number 1 team in the East and it doesn't look theey are going to drop anytime soon. Congrats to Caron
Re: Caron to Vegas! I couldnt agree more...He personally is having a great season, he improved alot from last year, and his team is doing well...I think that this was very well deserved my Caron. He is doing excellent this year...
Re: Caron to Vegas! He definitely deserved it. I didn't expect he'd be playing this well when we first acquired him, turns out he's playing better than Hughes was two seasons ago when he was with the wiz. He's been a big help in getting the wizards to where they are right now.
Re: Caron to Vegas! He's having a career year and he worked his ass off this season. He's a good fit for the Wizards as the 3rd option. Hope he can keep this up in a few years. Good Job.

He was last year but this year he has turned into the number 2 scoring option behind Arenas but before Jamison. He is averaging more than Jamison and is taking more shots than him too.
Re: Caron to Vegas! Very very very well-deserved. He's one of the best all-around players in the NBA, and is playing like an MVP this year, no doubt.
