  call me crazy, but other than dlee, cpaul and dwilliams, i dont see that much of a disparity – i mean, bynum/garbajosa? granger/millsap? am i missing something?

• Vitor Posted: Jan.31 at 4:58 pm
  Actually, this year the gap between the rookies and sophomores isn’t as wide as in recent years. CP3 is the main factor here. If he doesn’t play, the game might even be close. If he plays I can already see a lot of nasty dunks by Ellis and Lee.

• Russ Bengtson Posted: Jan.31 at 4:59 pm
  I don’t think I’d even bother going to that game.

• Chou Posted: Jan.31 at 5:05 pm
  sophs got 4 other guys who could play the point aside from cp3. it could get reeeeaaaal nasty down there.

• Jon Posted: Jan.31 at 5:13 pm
  Why the hell isnt JJ Redick Playing!!! I think it may be time for him to get a damn chance to SHINE!!!

• Frank Posted: Jan.31 at 5:14 pm
  Who cares, the game is ugly as it is.

• Chris Posted: Jan.31 at 5:15 pm
  The sohps definately have advantage at point and have better big centers, but the rooks might have the advantage at the 2, with gay, foye, and roy.
  I’m happy as long as I see somebody bounce the ball off somebody else’s head and then drain a three.

• Keli Posted: Jan.31 at 5:15 pm
  So, who’s going to be the MVP? Dwill or PMillsap?

• Sam Rubenstein Posted: Jan.31 at 5:16 pm
  This is my first All-Star game AND my first trip to Vegas. I’m doing it all.

• Ron Posted: Jan.31 at 5:18 pm
  The sophs team is loaded, but it’s a squad of small guards and big men. Rudy Gay and/or Brandon Roy could be the x factor for the rooks, even though the rooks never win anyway.

• nic Posted: Jan.31 at 5:18 pm
  sam, if you still got that girlfriend, you most likely wont be ‘doing it all’ – at least not according to official vegas standards…

• albie1kenobi Posted: Jan.31 at 5:20 pm
  i dunno, i think i’m desensitized from any good class after 2003. talent-wise i think they are pretty even. or maybe it’s just a name recognition thing.
  though i’m pretty sure next year’s rookie class is gonna be something.

• Billy Chen Posted: Jan.31 at 5:21 pm
  well, M. Williams and J. Farm can throw some nasty allys to RG. that sould be fun to watch, Randy Foye and B Roy can do some nasty moves on the sophs. same there on the sophs, i think Bynum won’t allow other ppl dunk on him that much, so we can see some blocks, plus Felton and CP3 can play. The Roks’ game shouldnt be bad, I think CP3 or Felton will get the MVP!!

• Sam Rubenstein Posted: Jan.31 at 5:22 pm
  I thought that official Vegas standards were “What happens in Vegas…”

• Bryant Reeves Posted: Jan.31 at 5:22 pm
  nic – what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas I think David Lee is going to be MVP of the rook-soph game

• NAS Posted: Jan.31 at 5:22 pm
  those rosters couldn’t beat the CELTICS, well they could probably win but they dont want to so they can get oden so maybe they’d just tank the game for the fuck of it

• dpak Posted: Jan.31 at 5:24 pm
  LEE!!!!!

• Jon Posted: Jan.31 at 5:25 pm
  Jason Maxiell of detroit should be in it

• Bryant Reeves Posted: Jan.31 at 5:26 pm
  Damn you Rubenstein for getting in line ahead of me!

• nic Posted: Jan.31 at 5:27 pm
  point taken. my b, fellas…my b.

• michael Posted: Jan.31 at 5:44 pm
  Even if CP3 doesn’t play the sophs still have Deron Williams who has been playing at an all-star level all season. Andrew Bynum should destroy the freshmanh in the middle.

• abelp Posted: Jan.31 at 5:57 pm
  the rookies need some size aldridge ty thomas and wheres renaldo balkman???? the sophomores are missing sean may gerald green hakim warrick nate robinson jarrett jack jason maxiell and channing frye..who selected these rosters ?? is it just me or is marvin williams beginning to look like a bust…???

• abelp Posted: Jan.31 at 5:59 pm
  while i was researching for my post 10 people posted…damn…

• William Posted: Jan.31 at 5:59 pm
  Where’s Renaldo Balkman and Channing Frye, the L is hating on the Knicks.
  The Big Nani will steal the show! If Deron Williams make the All Star game, would he be replaced or would he pull the double duty ?

• Boing Dynasty Posted: Jan.31 at 6:08 pm
  Luther Head is better than Jose Calderon?

• Jas Posted: Jan.31 at 6:09 pm
  To anyone who says the game’s not worth watching, you’re kidding yourself. In terms of entertainment value, the rookie-sophmore game is way better than the all-star game. The young fellas try all kinds of moves, you get to see a lot of crossovers and fancy handles, but in the all-star game you don’t see any of that. The all-star game is weak.

• Vince5 Posted: Jan.31 at 6:11 pm
  I’m agreing with you Boing Dynasty, Calderon should go at his place.

• Lang Whitaker Posted: Jan.31 at 6:13 pm
  I hope someone gets a ball bounced off their forehead again. Boozer hasn’t been the same since.

• Gord Posted: Jan.31 at 6:24 pm
  VERY good call on Jose Calderon > Luther Head…it’s not even close

• DP Posted: Jan.31 at 6:36 pm
  Monta is going to dunk on someone. For all the rookies, please watch out. please. CP3 and Deron will destroy the rest of them as well. play wit it.

• TrippleX Posted: Jan.31 at 6:38 pm
  garbo (29 yr old rook/vet) will SCHOOL these youngsters… haha il mago (bargnani) wil have a bunch of 3s and nice passes, morrison will go cold, couple nasty dunks by bynum, lee, ellis, rudy gay will posterize some1, gotta love the soph/rook game… although a case can be made for jose calderon.. but man how come no love for my man ryan gomes? is it cause the celtics suck? lol

• thesubwayconnection Posted: Jan.31 at 6:41 pm
  I think that this game won’t be close, but it’ll be a dunkfest. Not really sure on Luther Head *or* Garbajosa *or* Bogut. Millsap is definitely going to do something crazy. He’s better than advertised, don’t sleep just cause he’s in Utah. J-Rich will totally teach Monta the off the head trick in practice, look for it.

• Tom Jackson Posted: Jan.31 at 7:15 pm
  Love how the first guy who posted, Nic, thinks that DLee is a standout on the Sophomore team, but Bynum is not. There’s that East Coast bias again.

• Chief Posted: Jan.31 at 8:12 pm
  man rooks won’t be able to get over the play of CP3 the point God.

• chief sucks Posted: Jan.31 at 9:35 pm
  chief you suck you dont know anything

• chief sucks Posted: Jan.31 at 9:35 pm
  cmon chief fight back bitch

• chief sucks Posted: Jan.31 at 9:36 pm
  sophs will win

• Sparker Posted: Jan.31 at 10:16 pm
  as i write, calderon has put up 22 and 9 against the wiz, and there are 7 min to go.

• TrippleX Posted: Jan.31 at 11:10 pm
  touché sparker.. touché. this is Jose’s F U to all the assistant coaches who didnt pick him. he got snubbed BAAD. also, wheres the hibachi gilbert? talking trash bout dem raps and josé, but u gotta give some props to the boys up in da north. da raps r rly pickin it up…

• Phila Posted: Feb.1 at 12:20 am
  the sophs are gonna kill the inexperienced rooks. bynum, bogut, cp3 and New Mexicos very own Danny Granger. Im seeing blow out

• ALX8725 Posted: Feb.1 at 12:35 am
  Monta Ellis is unstoppable off the dribble, ESPECIALLY when guarded by inexperienced non-veterans. Theres going to be so many crossovers/incredible slashes to the rim! Monta Ellis, Foye, Roy, Chris Paul, Deron Williams,Marcus Williams, Raymond Felton….. guard mania!

• Driftwood Jones Posted: Feb.1 at 1:59 am
  How many future all-stars are these rosters?

• Driftwood Jones Posted: Feb.1 at 1:59 am
  I say 6: (Roy, Milsap, Bogut, Bynum, CP3, Deron)

• darren Posted: Feb.1 at 2:03 am
  im betting that the rooks will win just because the sophs think they weill

• Nine XXVI Posted: Feb.1 at 2:21 am
  Lang: “I hope someone gets a ball bounced off their forehead again. Boozer hasn’t been the same since.” My friend and I were just talking about this the other day. That was great. Good form, Gilbert. Good form.

• Boing Dynasty Posted: Feb.1 at 3:39 am
  Nine, it was J Rich.

• Hightz Posted: Feb.1 at 10:42 am
  where the F**K IS JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON

• Danny W. UK Posted: Feb.1 at 11:02 am
  Who the F**K IS JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON,JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON, JOSE CALDERON.
  Sorry Hightz, couldn’t resist.

• matthew Posted: Feb.1 at 12:30 pm
  jason maxiel should be playing

• H to the izzo Posted: Feb.1 at 12:51 pm
  David Lee to grab roughly 18923 rebounds in that game I’d say

• Hightz Posted: Feb.1 at 2:36 pm
  HES A SOPHOMORE ON THE RAPS HAVING A GREAT YEAR, BUT I GUESS THEY HAVE TOO MANY GUARDS….
  AND DONT WORRY…YOU WILL KNOW THAT NAME VERY WELL IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS…

• Hightz Posted: Feb.1 at 2:40 pm
  AND OHHH YA and WHERE IS MY BOY CHARLIE V…HE DESERVES TO BE ON THAT TEAM TOO…

• Tim Dennis Posted: Feb.1 at 11:10 pm
  where is NATE!! he is a show in his self. he hasnt had a great year but he is what the fans wanna see

• dogdog Posted: Feb.2 at 5:52 pm
  Paul Millsap will out rebound David Lee or any other player in the game. Game MVP too.

• steven Posted: Feb.5 at 1:58 pm
  istead of david lee why not put my man Jason M. on the roster. come on he has the sickest dunks of any sophmore.

• Ty Posted: Feb.5 at 5:56 pm
  Milk Carton alert: Jason Maxiell is playing his ass off, Tyrus Thomas and Lamarcus Aldridge should be playing in this game based off of hype alone and Gerald Green is a consistent 20 foot jump shot away from being the next T Mac. Roy, Foye, Bargnani, Gay, Paul, Felton, and Bogut are probably future all stars. If Bogut can be lucky enough to play in the Eastern Confrence for the next five or so years he should be a lock for the All Star game. Deron Williams reminds me of Jason Kidd with a jump shot but its gonna be hard for him to make the all star game in the West unless Baron Davis gets traded or something.

• Dan Posted: Feb.7 at 12:39 am
  Luther Head deserves to be in it more than anyone, he could be the NBA’s 6th man of the year. i think the rookies stand no chance, there are sophomores that didnt even make this team that would kick the rookies ass.

• J- Posted: Feb.7 at 2:28 am
  Monta will be an all star too. yee

• yc Posted: Feb.7 at 11:29 am
  the sophmores are gonna blow the rookies away… cmon all the sophmores are on fantasy lagues.. the only rookie that might be on some1′s fantasy team is either brandon roy or paul milsap.. HMMM I WONDER WHY???

• PTOWN Posted: Feb.15 at 9:12 pm
  You guys are picking players that you remember in college. Maybe if you pay attention you would see that Monta Ellis average 17.8 pts a game where he share the ball with THE GREAT BALL HOGG himself Baron Davis this kid will be a allstar for years to come. VISIT YOUTUBE YOU WILL AGREE!!!!!!!!

• yaboy Posted: Feb.16 at 5:44 pm
  two words.. MONTA ELLIS! watch for him 2nite

• silver Posted: Feb.16 at 6:00 pm
  OKay, all of you with your crazy predictions. YOU ARE IN VEGAS. Put your money where your mouth is. I got 2 stacks of high society on the Sophs. CP3 alone is more than the Rooks can handle. Ellis is so under rated is scary, the boy can play, who is quick enough on the rooks to check him?

• Ty Posted: Feb.16 at 7:25 pm
  Alright, P Town, I’ll admit that I must have slept by overlooking Monta Ellis for the future all star status and to his credit he might indeed sneak up on everybody and make the squad in the near future. I’m pretty sure that the Warriors had faith in Ellis to be good but not this quick. Dude probably made Baron Davis and Jason Richardson expendable.?!I just hope that they don’t get traded together!?.
