Hedo deserves to make it, his play has been great for Orlando....Can he still catch up to KG, he's only about a million votes down?lol

 

Dwight will start, no way anyone else will take him. Shaq doesn't deserve crap this year....sorry, he is done..

I wouldn't be surprised to see Hedo picked by the coaches to fill out the team.

[NotByChoice 2]

It would be awesome if Hedo made the all-star team. I would love to see him throw a lob pass to someone only for it to end up 15 rows in the stands.

Hedo is the one of the best passer for Howard in the games including buzzer beater alley hop over Duncan Spurs last year.

Think about their combination in slam dunk contest!!

Hedo is absolutely not getting a coaches pick over Pierce and Butler. Absolutely not.

Don't think that the coaches haven't noticed his improvement and contributions this year. Hedo is pretty much having a career year and I think that might garner him some honest consideration.

Guys like Pierce and Bosh will make it before Hedo, sadly...

 

On another note... NO ALL STAR GAME FOR SNAQ!!! There is NO way the coaches select him ahead of a player like 'Sheed that's helping lead one of the best teams in the NBA. So gratifying to see Snaq on the outside looking in.

Listen at the end of the day Hedo is in a tough crowd, he has people in front of him who have either already established a name for themselves or is carry a team on their back.

 

Now I would love to have him in the All-Star Game, it would be freakin awesome. But the group he has to be in over shadows his recent improvement.

 

Maybe we could do the best we can and try to get the state if Florida and his country to vote, but thats one major campaign.

Man... tough crowd... all I am saying is that the coaches may give him some serious consideration in acknowledgement of his improvements this season. Nothing is a given, though I will admit it would be hard not to give Pierce the nod with the record the Celtics have at the moment. Can't I still cross my fingers for Hedo?

You could be right, maybe and hopefully the coaches will give him the nod.

 

The real test for him to get that acknowledgment would be to keep it up until the very end, or even find a higher gear.

 

Im with you Echo4papa, i will be crossing my fingers,toes,legs,arms,eyes for Turk to get in. Heck I will turn into the human pretzel to make that happen.
