It seems like every year 2 or 3 players cannot particpate in the All Star game because of injury. This year I haven't heard of anyone expected to miss the big game. Kobe appears to be ready to play after giving it a go against the Rockets on Wednesday. In other events Brent Barry has been replaced by Kyle Korver in the 3 point shotout. In the rookie game I know Chris Bosh has been nursing a sore ankle. He came out of last night's game in the 3rd quarter and did not return. If Bosh can't go that might open up a spot for TJ Ford. Although without Bosh the Rookies are a woefully small team. Has anyone else heard of any injuries to any of the participants of All Star weekend and who their replacements might be?
Even with Bosh the rooks are small, hopefully they will press the sophs which will make the game more exciting.
It's too bad Barry won't make it in to the Three-point Shootout. I He would have made a pretty nice trivia answer if he had won it this year. Of course, there's always next season...
