    With the starters out, here's a few people in the west that are sure to be reserves...

    G Payton, F Garnett, F Malone, C D.Robinson.

    Now, what about the other 3 spots...2 will likely be guards, 1 more F/C. Here's the competition for Steve at G...Stockton, Finley,and Van Exel. I am almost sure Stockton will make it, because the coaches like to select the deserving veterans. Then, it's a toss-up between Steve, Finley, and VanExel. I presume Van Exel will be the least favorite b/c he is not a very big name. That means it comes down to Finley and Francis...tough decision. Finley does have the advantage of a winning record, but he is not as balanced as Steve. Tuesday is the big day, cross your fingers!

    c'mon...cut the guy some slack...I've done the same thing. I don't always read all of the topics and have double posted. It's not a crime, is it??

    First off, the head coach of the west doesnt pick the reserves. Second, Rick Adelman likes Steve Francis.

    .230 is still higher than Crawford's FG%!
