Carter and Wade.

They just need two guards, don't have to be point guards.

I hope Rondo gets in, because ASGs suck balls without capable fast break PGs. But after Wade, Arenas, Carter, Johnson, Harris. There's one spot maximum for another guard.

Harris won`t make it. NJ will be bottom 5 in the league...

I don`t see Rondo having a chance. He just won`t score enough points to get in...

[sam_I_am]

Here is how the PG's rank in the East right now:

1. Arenas
2. Harris
3. Nelson
4. Rose
5. Mo Williams
6. Rondo

I think Rondo could surpass Mo Williams this year but Nelson and Harris are primed to have much better seasons statistically. How do you make all star game averaging 7 ppg or even 12 ppg (his likely season average) when 4 guys in ECF are going to get 15-20 ppg and all usually average as many assists in a season?

[GuyClinch]

I think you need to think a bit harder about it. What about Gilbert Arenas? How about D. Rose? What about D. Harris? Let's wait till Rondo makes ONE all-star team before penciling him in as a starter.

[DorfonCeltics]

I would say it's probably a long shot for Rondo to make the All Star team this year. IMO, Arenas, Rose, and Nelson have a better chance and Harris and Mo Williams have about the same chance to make it as Rondo. Unless he gets voted in by the fans I just don't see it happening.

It'd be a travesty if Rondo, a top 5 PG in the NBA, doesn't make the all-star game

[chakdaddy]

He doesn't score enough to get the votes, although he has a pretty high profile after last year's playoffs...I think he probably is the best PG in the conferenc though, unless Arenas really comes back strong.

[captain green]

my favorite player for sure but I don't see it ppg needs to be 14 or higher...He has a lot of work to do for that...it helps that devon is hurt but rose will get it..

[GoGoCeltics]

Don't the fans only vote in the starters? I'm sure the GM(coach?) vote will get him in, or the ASG coach's selection will. I think the Celtics send Paul, KG, and Rondo this year.

[Hilltop]

He doesn't score enough to get the votes, although he has a pretty high profile after last year's playoffs...I think he probably is the best PG in the conferenc though, unless Arenas really comes back strong.

Perhaps, but I would rank Devin Harris and Derrick Rose higher than Rondo. He is closer to the likes of Jameer Nelson and Mo Williams IMO.

With Rose it's obvoiusly just a matter of time until he's better than Rondo; I think Harris is probably close, but I think he's kind of a good numbers on a bad team type. Williams and Nelson are just shooters to me. I'd go 1. Arenas 2. Rondo 3. Rose 4. Harris 5. Nelson 6. Williams

[GuyClinch]

If he continues to but up the numbers he has thus far he won't make it. If he puts up numbers like he did in the playoffs I think he will. At this point I don't see how anyone would think he is a sure thing. I don't even think KG is a shoe in unless he reverts to form. 14ppg won't get it done.
