Im picking the Sops because they seem like they are better, but I like the way the Rooks are playing A LOT better than the Sophs becuase they are trying fancy things, I mean thats what the weekend is about.

Im watching this right now and Ben Gordon is ripping it up for the sophs. Chris Paul has had some nice passes and Bogut threw an awesome behind the back to Nate Robinson. Im going for the rooks! (Y)

lol you spelt rookie wrong.

Edit: Did anyone notice that none of the players but a couple smiled during the pre game intro?

As much as I like the Sophmore team w/ guys like Howard, Iguodala, Gordon, etc., this year the rookies get my pick.

CP3 and CV3 will run this show !

Iguodala's got MVP wrapped up. 30 Points, 6 Rebounds, 3 Assists, 4 Steals, 13-17 Shooting, 4-6 Threes. And of course plenty of Dunks.

Iggy hands down MVP. 2nd best player was Paul, he was the only one not jacking up shots.

Igoudala had a massive game, he deserved MVP definitely. Some awesome dunks and he finished all his alleys'. If he this consistent in the dunk contest then my moneys on him.

Bogut was solid, Paul was good and Villanueva(sp?) was great.

lol Delonte West has 'Redz' tatted on his arm, i wonder if it has anything to do with that thing on his lower lip area. Igoudala's voice reminds me of Mike Tyson.

outside of Paul, Bogut definitely looked like the most impressive rookie....I know some of you will say Villanueva, who was solid offensively, but what Bogut showed, outside of his shooting ability which needs a lot of work, was impressive....his passes were superb, loved the behind-the-back passes....shit, Nate Robinson couldn't handle 2 or 3 of the passes....guess he's not use to be hit the chest that hard and that quick from a big guy....I definitely think Bogut is under-utilised in Milwaukee, but hope next season they open it up....whether or not the shots should be his is arguable, but with the ball in his hands, things happen....why not run cutters off him in post....anyway, enough of Bogut....Iggy was great as everyone expected....as was Chris Paul....you can just see that Dwight Howard is gonna be a monster for years to come....

looking forward to All-Star Saturday now 8-)
