All-Star thoughts...

1. Reggie Miller is tough to take! His voice is not smooth. He tries (and fails) to be funny. And he continually brings everything back to himself. He would make a solid announcer for the hometown Pacers. On the national stage, however, he is terrible.

2. The Slam Dunk contest needs to be reigned back in! Dwight Howard stepping into a phone booth to change clothes is something out of the XFL. And how many times must we watch Rudy Fernandez miss his dunks?!? You should be allowed three failed attempts -- after that, take a seat.(Speaking of which, why is Rudy Fernandez even in the event?!?)

3. Speaking of dunks, yes Nate Robinson is a great dunker! But, that's all he is. You know damn well he does nothing all year except practice his dunks for his five minutes of fame every February. The fourth year pro has not improved one bit since somehow managing to sneak into the first round of the 2005 draft. Hey, Holmes, maybe you want to work on developing a jump shot? We actually suffered through three Knicks games on TV this season and Robinson is a Human Turnover. Even worse, he struts around thinking he's all that.

4. Nice to see Shaq and Kobe together and friendly! It's clear that at this point in their careers, they both see What Could Have Been had they put their egos aside. It says here that Shaq will be back in the Purple and Gold before retiring.
