Yao Won't Play In All Star Game

Tough luck for Yao. Great season thus far and really deserved to be there, and MVP candidate and a definite starter. It sucks to see the leagues best center go down like this, I really thought he would be back in time for the ASG. Ah well, hopefully he can stay healthy this time next year.

Is it too late for the fans to vote Mutombo in his place?

Ironic...the first time he actually deserves to start, he won't be playing. Tough break.

This means Amare Stoudemire will start at center?

Obviously he won't play. If you can do simple math you would have known.

Whatever.

Well just as well, because he usually sucks in the all-star game.

Except he deserved to be there. He's the best center in the league and it sucks to see him go down and miss something like this, even though he is probably tired of playing in them :P

Do you have a clue about anything or are you just an ignorant moron?

Please don't post this rubbish, it does not help the conversation at hand let alone the general perception you will dictate of yourself to others.

Back on topic, at least Camby should finally get the honour he deserved last year. It's going to almost be a small ball line-up in the West this year if Amare and Camby man the middle. No true centre's out West that deserve the spot in the ASG.

I believe the replacement would go to Boozer/Okur. But yeah, Camby is still up in there too.

Since Mike D'Antoni will be coaching the West it wouldn't surprise me if Amare Stoudemire moved into the starting lineup, assuming he's selected as a reserve or injury replacement. After all, the league selects the injury replacement but it's at the coach's discretion as to who will take an injured starter's place.

yeah most the time the stat lines for the all star game mvp's are not outstanding, and if they are, they're never like a record type of game.

It's hard to put up impressive stats when almost everyone on the floor is used to carrying their team.
