Final All Star Rosters Out - Melo Snubbed
The All Star rosters are now complete with the starters announced earlier and now the reserves. Mike D’Antoni will coach for the West and Eddie Jordan of the Washington Wizards will coach the East.
West Reserves
Amare Stoudemire - Phoenix Suns
Steve Nash - Phoenix Suns
Shawn Marion - Phoenix Suns
Allen Iverson - Denver Nuggets
Dirk Nowtzki - Dallas Mavericks
Carlos Boozer - Utah Jazz
Tony Parker - San Antonio Spurs
East Reserves
Chauncey Billups - Detroit Pistons
Richard Hamilton - Detroit Pistons
Caron Butler - Washington Wizards
Dwight Howard - Orlando Magic
Jermaine O’Neal - Indiana Pacers
Vince Carter - New Jersey Nets
Jason Kidd - New Jersey Nets
Dwight Howard, Caron Butler and Carlos Boozer are first time selections while amazingly Carmelo Anthony was left off the All Star team once again. His suspension for the incident at the Madison Square Garden is the sure culprit of this snub but I think Melo still has a chance to make the team. You see, Carlos Boozer will be out for 4-6 weeks due to injury so this will give Melo the chance to fill in for Boozer a la Gilbert Arenas for the injured Jermaine O’Neal last season.
