As far as the starting lineup is concerned my only issue is that the fans voted Yao Ming as the starting center and his career is practically over. But this article is about the reserves that made it and if they deserved to play in the Staples Center this year or not.
Eastern Conference
Eastern Conference
- Ray Allen - The all-time leader in 3's made. Adding Jesus to the roster is a must. Verdict: Good Choice
- Chris Bosh - Not putting up the same number as he did as a Raptor due to playing with better offensive player. Verdict: Absolutely not the spot belongs to Carlos Boozer
- Kevin Garnett - One of the greatest power forwards of all-time has resurged since his knee surgery. Verdict: Of course he deserved to go
- Paul Pierce - The Truth. Nothing but the truth. Celtics most clutch player. Verdict: Of course
- Al Horford - Solid number down south and also possesses a great post-up game. Verdict: Yes
- Joe Johnson - One of the best offensive talents in the League. Verdict: Good Choice
- Rajon Rondo - Was the early favorite for NBA until Derrick Rose took over. Verdict: Duh
Western Conference
- Deron Williams - Best PG in Utah since Stockton and one the best PG's the the League. Verdict: Again one of the best

- Pau Gasol - Fundamentally sound Spaniard. Verdict: Between he & Al Jefferson but Gasol gets the nod
- Manu Ginobili - Best Spurs offensive player this year. Verdict: All-Star moves deserves an all-star nod
