Today is All-Star Thursday for Melo and AI

According to a report on the Denver Post website, Carmelo and AI have been voted in as starters for the 2008 NBA All-Star Game.

All in all I would trade this for even one more win, but it is an honor to have 40% of the starting lineup in the most competitive conference we have seen in quite some time to be from our Denver Nuggets.

Congratulations to Carmelo and Iverson and since you will both be there, here is hoping you bring home Co-MVP awards.

Update:
Here is a better article from the Rocky Mountain News.

Did anyone count my votes for Josh McRoberts?

The NBA probably has the most pure all-star game of the big four sports (NFL, NBA, MLB, and UFC).  To craft the starting line-up strictly according to fan voting is a commitment to the fans that is unparalelled and those justifiably left out are generally rewarded by the coaches.  What an awesome thing for the Denver Nuggets franchise to start two players.

Sure you can end up with Magic Johnson starting his first game of the year in the all-star game, but the fans wanted it and they were rewarded with a helluva game.  Now if only we could vote on the dunk contest participants....

THE STIFF LIST (as of 3/8 by Andrew)

STIFF #1: K-MART'S LEFT KNEE
Best-case scenario, K-Mart misses another week or two with a sore knee.  Worst-case, he's done for the season with knee surgery. 

STIFF #2: RON ARTEST
Nice hairdo.  'Nuff said.

STIFF #3: JOEL PRYZBILLA
The Blazers backup center re-injured his surgically repaired right knee after slipping in the shower.  Now we're just waiting for Greg Oden to slip on a banana peel.

STIFF #4: CAVALIERS FANS
Recently set the world record for the largest gathering of people wearing fleece blankets - i.e. Snuggies.  Really?!  This is worthy of a world record?!

STIFF #5: BOSTON CELTICS
Losing to the pathetic Nets and almost losing to the Wizards is one thing.  But to do so at home within a week of each other...now that's an art.  I think it's safe to assume the Celtics are going nowhere in this year's playoffs.
