Dallas Mavericks forward Josh Howard and Denver Nuggets forward Carmelo Anthony have been named by NBA Commissioner David Stern to replace injured West All-Stars Yao Ming (right knee) of the Houston Rockets and Carlos Boozer(left fibula) on the Western Conference Roster for the 2007 NBA All-Star Game on Sunday, February 18 in Las Vegas. So now the one thing we have to ask is how in this world did they not get on it to start with. As far I know Josh Howard is the number two guy on the best team. Some are saying that it was the 15 games that Carmelo did not play that hurt him or that he is just not that good. So to start with I want to say he is that good, this is a bad man. We are talking about a guy who can go for 50 on any night of the week and a guy who is the 2006-07 SCORING LEADER! I'm just happy that they got it right and put Carmelo Anthony in the game and I would say look out East Carmelo could be a little mad when he gets to the game!

It's great for Melo. It was really disheartening not seeing him get in (probably because of the fans' voting based on the brawl, which was a sad event.) While it is unfortunate for Yao (who doesn't even need to have a good season to get into the All-Star game, anyway, due to a whole country voting for him) and Carlos Boozer (a Duke graduate), it's good to see another great from the 2003 Draft Class in.
