6th straight in the West

by **rl564411** on Fri Nov 09, 2007 10:30 am

That would be cool.

by **Lamrock** on Fri Nov 09, 2007 10:34 am

Sweet, maybe Nash will finally get to start... I didn't realize it is the sixth straight in the West though... LA, Denver, Houston, Las Vegas, New Orleans, Phoenix.

rl564411, Nice spam post, jerk.

Thanks for failing at hyperlink, and spamming again, jerk.

Before this 6-year West tandem, wasn't there a long stint of the East hosting the event?

by **c0nr4d** on Sat Nov 10, 2007 5:17 am

there was better places to hold it next year imo...like Chitown or Memphis or maybe Miami

bring it back east Stern!

Milwaukee needs an all star game. I would go.

bah,it should have been in boston. the entire city of boston is on fire right now and seeing as the celtics have the new look "big 3" it would make perfect sense.

Looking forward to this year's ASG.
The East and West are definetely a lot more balanced than before where the West was just stacked at nearly every position. Hope Nash starts and Melo to make it this year.
Dwight and KG on the same team...It's gonna be SICK..but this probably means Bosh will be coming off the bench.

That would just be too much. Seattle I say, because they'll be missing basketball in 2009, and as a result so will I....

It's long overdue, seeing as though the last time Boston hosted the event was 1964.

i did not realize it has been that long. thing i dont get though, is how come stern does not want to cash it on the city of boston itself right now? i personally think phoenix is a bad choice, alot of better places it could have been. hmmm, maybe this is the nba's way of making it up to phoenix since they got screwed by a ref last season?

Would you rather be in Boston in February, or Phoenix in February?

i see your point, however i am the wrong one to be asking that as i would still pick boston lol.

by **Silas** on Tue Nov 13, 2007 12:41 pm

I think Vancouver BC, aside from Seattle, would be the most logical choice. It is ludicrous that they ever moved the Grizzlies.

I concur.

You'd think he'd be used to this by now. He was booed in the Lakers home opener, fer chris'sake.

by **Silas** on Wed Nov 14, 2007 1:11 am

He was booed at the Denver All Star game as well.

by **Drex** on Wed Nov 14, 2007 2:11 am

In Philly too. Hometown FTW.

by **TheMC5** on Wed Nov 14, 2007 2:19 am

Booing Kobe is the new black.

by **Sauru** on Wed Nov 14, 2007 10:56 am

kobe should hook up with brit spears to form the most hated couple in the history of man kind

I don't know, he'd have to top Kevin Federline to achieve that status. For all the boo birds, Kobe still has a fanbase which makes that an uphill battle.
