NBA All- Stars or Big Names

Johnny Jackson lll



The NBA All-Star game is approaching and with that brings the All-Stars of the first half. Are they really All- Stars having a break out first half or do fans just want to see them?

Well my opinion is not only do the fans want to see them, but the league does too. I mean who would pay to see a bunch of players who are not celebrities. I know I probably wouldn't even go for free, well maybe for free.

I just don't like the fact that the big names are struggling, but for some odd reason their in the starting line up of the All-Star game. About two seasons ago when Shaq played for Miami in 06 he only played 40 games all season. Besides that he only played a couple of games in the first half and was announced as the starting center for the East. How is that possible? You have players who actually go hard evey night and put up good numbers, but don't go.

This year it's Allen Iverson, he's a great player and I even have his Pistons jersey, but his season is mediocre. I know other point guards who should be starting, like Devin Harris and Mo Williams. Their both going but Harris is going as a back-up and Williams is now going because Chrish Bosh won't be able to make it. I guess being a good players on a bad team don't get recognized for their talent since their team is in last place.
