Oh I hope none of them make it, guys can use the weekend better, rest for what really matters.

Seriously though, RR's a lock. PP should start as well, but James is in this conference...and with all the NY votes for Amare
Garnett has had a better start than Pierce.

LeBron will start with either Amar'e or KG at the other Forward spot, I'm hoping KG.

I don't get why people think that being voted into the all-star game is such a taxing thing on athlete's bodies...
To be fair, Doc sometimes cancels practices to give guys rest. The allstar game is probably similarly draining.

Also, we will probably sit guys toward the end of the season. That seems to mean that resting a single game can make a difference, though the ASG intensity is much less.

Who gets to pick the reserves?  Is it Doc or coaches voting?  I forget how that works.  I figure LBJ beats PP in fan voting at the 3; Stat beats KG at the 4; Wade beats RR at the 2.  There might be other players in the mix but those names came to mind immediately as guys I would think would win the vote over the Big 3.  Rondo vs Rose will be a toss up; I give the edge to Rose since he's probably more popular right now on a national level, but Rondo does have the momentum.

Sounds about right, but you meant Wade beats out RA at the 2.  ;)

Eh, I bet even practices are more draining than the all star game.
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale
