    It's just a fun game so it doesn't matter. Kobe's always been a ball hog so that shouldn't come to a suprise, but Allen was on fire and they just kept feeding him.

    Duncan and Garnett didn't even play the 4th quarter, if it doesn't matter to the players, then I doubt Pop gives a damn.

    i really happy Tmac and Yao did not play a lot of time. We have tough games ahead...the first one: Spurs! I would really happy if Duncan won the all star MVP (more playing time ):D :D :D :D :D

    I love how Pop basically benched all of the Suns after the East went on that 17-0 run when they were all on the floor.

    not true at all. Remember the overtime game a couple of years ago? Francis played the <b>whole </b> 4th quarter and overtime, as he had 20 points and 10 assists that game i believe, and KG was just sick that game, had like 39...........and didnt McGrady finish the game yesterday also? and get 31 minutes? what more can u ask for?:confused:

    Yeah same here....iam glad they did not play more than 25 mins. Both scored some pts and made some nice plays so I am fairly happy with the result (wish the West would have won but oh well).
