Everytime you watch a basketball game at this point during the season we are plagued with All-Star talk. Who is going to start? Who will make it this year? Are there going to be any first-timers? You get the point right?
Needless to say the talk goes to those FORWARDS positions' in the West. How can you fit all the talent the West has to offer in the amount of spots allowed?
First off I truly believe, and disagree with me if you want, but I don't think Carmelo Anthony should even be on the ballot. When a man sucker punches another man during a game, is that what we consider to be All-Star caliber? Why would you give a man this honor after that type of behavior? Especially when there are other forwards that are just as deserving, if not more.
For example, Tim Duncan, Dirk Nowitzki, Kevin Garnett, Carlos Boozer, Shawn Marion, Josh Howard to name just a few. Is he that much better of a player than any of these people? HELL to the NO! Do they dish out sucker punches during their games and get suspended for 15 games? Once again, NO. So tell me who are the real All-Stars?
