I'm hoping none of our players make it this year, Rondo should be out a few more days maybe a couple of weeks, so no reason for him to even be there whatsover.

And I think that the big 3 have an understanding in between them that either all of them goes together or none of them goes.

Pierce is the most likely to be there,he's played better than Carmelo overall, the only better SF in the east is Lebron but Carmelo has more fans.

But even here he shouldn't go, stay with the team and practise that's much better.

Ray will miss it and so will KG, I think Bosh and Amare get's in this year.

That's alot better I think, we'll have around 4-5 days of practise before we play again.

I'm not so sure that 4 or 5 days of practice would be allowed or happen, but the rest and reality check could be very good for the team indeed.

I think Ray deserves to go, though weak stretch and low ppg might keep him off, and Rondo, though who knows with his injury. Could make a case for Pierce, but his poor start prevents it.

i am huessing pierce has a shot as a reserve.  he has played all star level ball the last couple weeks and he has his reputation as an all star, which helps.

I think all of Ray/PP/Rondo have a shot at a reserve slot, you can make a case for any of the three.

I think two will get in not sure who though.

I sure hope you're right, I'm not watching if there are no celtics out there.   :P

The Paul Pierce stan in me wants to see him get voted as a reserve so he can be a 10 time all-star but i wont be heart broken if he doesnt make it

These things are voted on by the coaches, so I think Pierce is a shoo-in. Coaches around the league know how valuable what Pierce does is.

I think pierce/rondo deserve to get in...

and if Ray allen did last year because of his 3point shooting he at least has a shot this year...he is shooting over 50% from 3 so far..but I dont think he will because he tends to be underrated(last year I think they gave it to him for beating reggie millers record)

I certainly wouldn't mind it if none of our guys got in. Like the OP stated - the rest would be golden.

But last year was sweet, indeed - seeing our guys dressed up and representin' Boston:



Even sweeter was seeing Doc trot them out together (with Dwight Howard at Center, no less), and hearing the boos of the Los Angeles crowd. ;D

That was unforgettable, and I loved it!

Even more reason for Dwight to consider Boston. Doc was just prepping him, and he didn't even know it.
