Three Nuggets in the All-Star game?

It's a possibility. It's starting to sound more and more like Kobe will not play in the all-star game. With Chauncey Billups and Chris Kaman already going from snub to star due to injuries, its possible Nene could be selected to the all star game as a replacement. Though you have to wonder if David Stern would put three Nuggets on the roster. Andrew Bynum is banged up as well so it's possible that he will not be eligible to play. Really this leaves you with a few options. Either its going to be Nene or one of these three- Marc Gasol, Carlos Boozer or Carl Landry. Seems like Booz would get the nod, he's been playing well as of late, but heres hoping to get a third Nug in the game!

if ellis is healthy its him
also tyreke evans is making a case… as much as i like nene, i dnt think stern puts him on the all star team, i actually think kmart desrves it as much
I hope not
While its cool Melo n CB are ‘all stars’, I haope neither of them plays in the all star game. CB can still do the 3pt but with the injuries it would be nice if they were responsible and took this week to rest
Nene: no chance. But K-Mart?...

I was wondering about that absence...
maybe he eliminated him due to injury?
Because Montana has no professional sports, I gotta support the land of my birth.

^Needs explaining: don't call someone asking uncomfortable, slightly antagonistic questions trolls. In all odds they probably just want to learn. It's real easy to differentiate a 'Socratic' post from a trolling one (unless you're a resident of WCG).
^Needs further explaining: I have yet to post anything on WCG, don't worry, I'm not trying to rationalize anything I've done. I've just lurked over there and man, they are the model of post-peloponnesian war Athens.
If Kobe doesn't play
Then why would a Center/PF replace a guard? Roy is out as well, so the only guards are D-Will, Billups and Nash right?

Yeah...
but that could happend for the same reason Kaman replaced Brandon Roy.
If Kobe doesnt go then Boozer gets the nod…has to.

Lol, you guys are such Nuggets homers
Nene doesn’t deserve to be in the All-Star game one bit. Carlos Boozer, from our neighboring Utah Jazz has been tearing it up lately, and is the rightful player do be awarded the spot. Also, Monta Ellis should get serious consideration.
"Jive turkey is a little over the line my man!"
I like the fact that the option for "Karl will find some way to insert A.C. into the game"
Is currently leading the votes with 24 at 47% of total.
I lol’ed.
Swats.
Jason Kidd got the nod
Kobe and AI were offically ruled out today (I bet Phil thught his buddy GK would run Kobe fr 48 minutes haha). Jason Kidd is replacing Kobe and David Lee is replacing AI. Got this from ESPN.
"Don't chase the money, chase the dream"
Seriously?
Whatever, it’s not like Nene/KMart had much of a shot anyway

Jason Kidd?
That’s terrible but I guess I can stand it because of the career achievement thing…
I'm happy for Lee
He deserves it more than anybody. But Kidd? I don’t think anybody even mentioned his name as a replacement for Kobe.

oi Jason Kidd
Talk about a homer pick, the only reason he makes the game is because its in Dallas. The reason I didn’t put K-mart as an option is because I think it’s best for him to rest the knee for two weeks
Why live life on the edge, when you can jump off?
Oh, I see now
I was thinking “Jason Kidd!!!” What? It at least makes a little more sense now that I realized that. Still it’s total bull shit that he got the nod over Monta.

GK gets to pick the new starting guard for Kobe
CB1 will start now for sure. How about that, Denver is going to have 2 starter in the All Star Game. This info was at the bottom of the ESPN story Garrett Olsen mentioned. Thanks for the link
