I dont hate Vince at all, i dont even dislike him. I enjoy his highlight plays and think he has a very solid game. I think you get confused with best and favourite player thats all.

but one thing i can say about vince is that, he is a favourite and one of the best. and guess who is starting for jermaine o'neal??? trust me. u think u know its gilbert arenas, but there has been a change in plans... take a guess, a wild guess. who other than gilbert arenas could POSSIBLY replace jermaine o'neal? lol. U GUESSED IT.
Not to mention Gilbert Arenas is a 6'4" guard. Carter has played SF for most of his career. Even then though, putting Carter in the line-up doesn't make sense because then you have LeBron at PF. LeBron on Duncan doesn't make much sense. Therefore it may be Dwight, Bosh, Rasheed, or Ben Wallace. One of the Wallace's would be the best option.

no one else but arenas or carter is going to take the starting spot, and it makes more sense to put vince in than arenas because the east needs more size, and it would be much more enjoyable to watch cause vince brings a new sick highlight that makes me jump outta my seat every all star game....arenas....not so much.
i fthe east needs more size then surely bosh, dwight or the wallaces will get in? i mite be biasd... but i'd go for bosh either him or dwight. sod the wallaces, they'll probably get a ring at the end of the year, and it aint like sheed wanted to be there
There is no way in hell Gilbert will be starting. Heck, he only made it on the bench as an alternate, why would he then surpass everybody else and then start?

WOW myth we agreed on something. anyways, i heard this when i was watching the nets vs pistons game, and the announcers said that flip saunders(if that is how 2 spell his name) is going to give vince the starting spot because he DESERVES it.
The question remains though, how is the line up of AI, Wade, Bron, Vince and Shaq gonna match up with the West? Vince is not a PF so how are they gonna start him?

Thats why it didn't make sense. This will mean LeBron will be bumped to PF at the beginning of the game. I'm thinking that it won't take long for subs to come in to even out the size.
I agree that Vince is playing better than everybody else on the East bench, but it doesn't make sense. Thats why I figured they could make a case for one of the Wallace's to start since they are on the Pistons. I say start Ben Wallace to guard Duncan because you still couldn't argue that Wallace doesn't deserve to start. Ben Wallace is a C in a PF's body anyway.

IMO, Myth's list very closely resembles mine. However, I'd live Russell off and put Duncan on. And I wouldn't have Julius Erving on. Though I do agree with him, that finding a 10th would be incredibly difficult to do.
either way, I CANNOT WAIT for the all star festivities to begin... a lot of big name players and all stars participating on saturday and sunday night. by the way, for all the raptor fans, mike james has decided to enter the 3 point shootout.
u didnt just state a problem, its was a question, i gave an answer that i could because i was the only one to say that vince is going to be in the starting lineup instead of arenas.
I think the thing was, he wasn't asking you or anybody on here for an explanation. He's questioning in the sense that it is questionable to put Carter in the line-up. Therefore, it really was more of a statement.

Thanks Myth, it wasnt a question as such i said " The question remains though" meaning there is a question of how that starting line up would work. I didnt mean for you to take it so literally, i will be clearer in the future.
