Mo Williams has been selected as Bosh's injury replacement. A good move, even though I think that he should have been there in the first place, and certainly as Nelson's injury replacement. The East are really friggin small now, with Rashard Lewis as their biggest reserve.

David Lee, a PF/C, should've been selected as Bosh's replacement....Stern dropped the ball on this replacement pick....I would've preferred Z over Nelson, since East is so small now....

Maurice Williams, as much as I like him, is not an all-star. He is having one of the worst statistical seasons of his career (and even at his best, he is just a good starter), and is only there due to the Cavs' success and Z missing a chunk of the season. Yes, Lee would have been a far better decision, but no matter the circumstances, getting a top 3 team in the league a second all-star is always a priority.

West should easily win this all-star game.

Agreed, though with the nature of All-Star games the East can probably find ways of compensating if the game is competitive down the stretch.
