---

Rajon Rondo is done for the season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament..

Mostly likely his All-Star replacement would be Deron Williams, JR Smith or Brandon Jennings.

Kung pwede pa lang center ang i-puli, Brook Lopez unta! Or just let Stephen Curry play for the East!!!

[Buzz Killington]

^pwede raman guard/forward/center ang kuhaon ni stern as replacement..... i think brook lopez has the best chance....

sa west pod kung di gani mkaduwa si duncan, 100% sure stephen curry ang i-puli.....

Move Kyrie as a starter; either Brook Lopez, Brandon Jennings or Josh Smith gets the replacement spot... I'm happy...

[King LeBron]

Yes, Kyrie as the starter. At least, he's my fav player next to Rondo.

Brooklyn Nets has finally a representative.

Brook Lopez will replace Rajon Rondo on the Eastern Conference All-Star team, the league announced.

David Stern gets to fill Rondo’s roster spot, but he is not bound by position — he didn’t have to pick another point guard. Instead he went to the opposite in Lopez, who has been the best offensive center in the Eastern Conference this season. Lopez has averaging 18.6 points per game shooting 52.3 percent while pulling down 7.3 rebounds a game, with a PER of 25.1 (a number that normally suggests All-Star lock).

Dwight Howard might not be able to play sa All Star - Kinsa kaha puli ani niya hope they can get the one who really deserves to be an All Star. Step Curry might be a possibility.
