I'm talking about those two positions also. There won't be more than 5 guards, and that leaves just one spot available.

There's always a chance that TMac has a bad back and sits out )or plays SF like he has been for the Rockets before this season) or Kobe goes missing :mrgreen:

Only Deron looks like he be named ahead of him for one of the last spots and that is only because of his team's success this season migya make the ring fall on ya

Parker is ding well again this season, like he did last season, and the Spurs are again a top 3 team in the West and he has had alot to do with that so he will likely get an allstar spot and that wil likely make Baron miss out migya make the ring fall on ya

Parker?. I like him... but all star?. Seems a bit too much, but you never know. Players in successful teams are not required to do as much as others.

I like him to and don't think he is worthy of being allstar but he was last season and it looks the same this season; his production and the Spurs record

Yeah, but Baron is a guard, so, from those three, only Allen is on his way. Lewis and Brand are forwards, so that's a different debate.

I still think Nash, AI, Kobe and T-Mac are sure all stars this season. That leaves one spot available for the likes of Baron, Allen, Paul and even Deron Williams.

Should Baron make it?. Sure. Can he make it?. Not so sure. I don't think he has much cred between some coaches.

correct me if im wrong, but i thought 11th and 12th men werent decided by position but by vote

That's right, which is why I think Baron has such a good chance. There can be 5 or 6 guards on the allstar team

Yeah, there's no positional needs involved, but I don't think it matters. Baron won't get as many votes as other players... and even if position doesn't matter, I cannot a west team loaded with guards. There's too much talent in the conference to bring 6 guards on the team.

I disagree. There are too many guards playing great and not as many forwards. Deron, Parker, Paul and Baron are all playing well while only Brand, Lewis and Marion are really any chance of getting allstar. Randolph's team is just not winning enough.

Since the Mavs are winning so much and are #1 in the West and nba, Terry and especially JHoward have a great chance of being chosen, since coaches seem to go for players on the best teams

Poster Credit: 0	Posted: Mon Jan 01, 2007 7:01 am I'd like to see the NBA try and let the coaches take over. Just like the NFL and their Pro Bowl, the fans vote of course, but they're only worth like 33% of the whole thing and the coaches are 67%. Doesn't necessarily have to be like that, but somewhere around where the coaches do more than the lil kids. Don't hate yourself in the morning... sleep 'til noon.
