“At this point I have to agree Rondo should be starting. While I think Rondo and Kyrie Irving probably deserve to start, I am guessing the fans will still vote in Wade (players like TMac, Vince Carter and Allen Iverson were voted in by fan inertia well after they deserved it). I think LeBron and Melo will both be voted and have shown they clearly deserve it. With Garnett, he probably will get the fan vote but on merit it probably should be Anderson Varejao.”

“EASTERN: Guard - Rajon Rondo Guard - Deron Williams Front Court - Lebron James Front Court - Carmelo Anthony Front Court - Kevin Garnett This is my choice cause Bynum is injured that makes Garnett or Brook Lopez the next best Center available. Deron Williams over Dwayne Wade I guess since Wade is not playing well because of Injury. Rondo I think would be definitely a starter this years All-Star because of his freakin' stats. Just a thought. ”
