Pg- Steve Nash

Sf- Carmelo Anthony
Pf- Tim Ducan
C- Amere Stoudemire


Little early to do this but lets do it.

CP over Nash.

Paul is playing out of his head, 27.8ppg and 8.5apg. He also is shooting an unheard of 65.6% on FG's, thats just unreal for a PG to shoot a % that high. He also is making 81.8% of his 3-balls (9 of 11).

Nash is playing well too with 18.7ppg and 14apg.

However, Paul has youth on his side and has a much better chance of maintaining his numbers than Nash does.

Amare is playing PF, Channing Frye is playing C for the Suns.

Chris Kaman is boucing back from a down year last season and looking like the player of a few years back.

Without Zach Randolph, Kaman is re-establishing himself as a force in the West.

22.6ppg, 10.2rpg, 1.8bpg, 60% from the field.

Good luck.


ok, steve nash's numbers are 21.5ppg and 12.5apg. also u are saying that cp3 has youth on his side. steve nash has been playing that high speed basketball for a while so i think its the same. i dont know what else u are talking about


CP's assist totals might be down but he is still playing at an extremely high level and is more worthy than Nash to start. Nash would be fine backing him up.

"i dont know what else u are talking about"

Quite simply, Amare is a PF.

Channing Frye was acquired in the offseason by the Suns and is playing CENTER for them.

If you havent heard of him, google Chris Kaman.

2 years ago he emerged by posting 15.7ppg, 9.6rpg and 2.8bpg. Last year he struggled with injuries as he averaged a pedestrian 12ppg, 8rpg and 1.5 bpg.

This year he has taken his game to an entirely different level by posting 22.6ppg, 9rpg, 1.8bpg and shooting 60% from the field. He is arguably the best center right now in the Western Conference.

Use more characters in your arguments.


first what is ur line-up.
two chris paul is probalbe going to pull a hamestring playing like that.
3. it probable going to drop since he's scoring for peterson and wright since they both suck so his ppg is going down when they start scoring


I gave you my changes but since you didnt understand, here you go.

PG-CP, different
SG- Kobe Bryant
SF- Carmelo Anthony
PF- Tim Ducan
C-Chris Kaman, different

CP is going to get injured? Any player can get injured at anytime in sports! But CP has played in

78
64
80
78

games in full seasons in the NBA so far.

Thats an average of 75 games per season. Not exactly the walking wounded, now is he?

What makes you think Peterson and Wright will start scoring? Wright has a career scoring average of 4.2ppg in 116 NBA games.

And Peterson has been a huge disappointment since signing with NO.

8ppg in 07-08
4.4ppg in 08-09
and 6.8ppg so far this season.

CP and David West are the only legit scoring threats that NO has. Emeka Okafor was a solid pickup for Tyson Chandler but he isnt an 18-20ppg scorer. He gives them more low post scoring than Chandler did but isnt about to take the scoring burden off either West or Paul.

This is just the evolution of CP as 1 of the best PG's in the game right now.

"probalbe?"

"hamestring?"

Doesn't matter who you think SHOULD be in, it's up to the fans, and they screw it up every year.

CP3 is playing out of his head for a personal game, he should be averaging over 10 assists, 8.5 just isn't enough. Regardless he gets the start before Nash. I like rights picks more, but his explanations for them aren't supportive enough.

If you've been paying attention at all this season, Nash has been a lot better than D Will.

Nash already has a 20 assist game.

We're choosing All-Stars in game 4 out of 82 games?

I would have Dirk over Timmy or Amare depending on what you listen Dirk. He starts the game as PF but ends games as a C.

I like the Nash pick. Looks like Kerr was brilliant [for once] in resigning Nash to that nice contract. He still has alot left in that tank.

But the All Star game isnt necessarily about who has the best stats if they are close, its about popularity.

Too Early for talking All-Star votes. And I gotta say that I don't agree with fans voting for the all-star starters. Too me, it cheapens the event because players get voted in obviously on populalarity and not on performance during the season. With that being said, here are my five picks.

PG- Chris Paul
SG- Kobe Bryant
SF- Carmelo Anthony
PF- Dirk Nowinski
C- Andrew Bynum

Certainly need Dirk in the line-up, regardless of where he goes.

Have you looked to see who the Suns have played. Golden State, Minnesota, Miami, the CLippers. Only the Heat made the playoffs last year.

The Jazz have played a good Rockets squad, the Mavs, Clippers (only win) and Denver. Last year 3 of those teams were seeded higher in the playoffs.
