A look around the league and the web that covers it. It’s also important to note that the rotation order and starting nods aren’t always listed in order of importance. That’s for you, dear reader, to figure out.
C: Y! Sports. Kevin Durant, O.J. Mayo and Joe Johnson. (Sucks there’s no ‘Sheed, but that’s a solid trio.)
PF: AA. ABC/ESPN play-by-play man Mike Breen is going to ref the NBA All-Star "Celebrity" Game.
SF: RU. "D-Leaguers! Get your D-Leaguers! Get ‘em while they’re hot! Get ‘em while they’re buttered!"
SG: Sports Biz / Darren Rovell. Almost 90 percent of Chinese people age 15 to 54 are aware of the NBA.
PG: FirstCuts. NBA Eastern Conference on-the-court All-Star Game kicks preview, part one and two.
6th: RootZoo. A great list/videos of the Top 10 dunks in Slam Dunk contest history.
7th: Splog. New Lakers man Adam Morrison faces stiff mustache competition in Los Angeles.
8th: Fanster. What if the Suns are thinking of dealing Amar’e Stoudemire to alleviate financial problems?
9th: NY Post. Missed this last week, but, apparently, Kobe Bryant left a NYC waitresses a $2,000 tip.
10th: The Good Point. Austin Kent: "Little did [Gilbert Arenas] (or anyone else) know, the ultimate access [into his mind, via his blog] would eventually lead to his crippling decline. Though the world tuned in for the coining of Hibachi and the 60-point triumph against Kobe Bryant that followed, the cult-like celebrity that came with his newfound gig would slowly consume the man previously motivated by nothing but rejection and an undying urge to improve." Interesting read. Check it out.
