Report Violation

One question at the beginning of the 09-10 season was: Which center should start for the West All-Stars?

With Yao Ming out for the rest of the year, and Shaq packing his bag during the off-season to join the King in the East. It left a void at the middle of the West's possible All-Star starters. We all know that the starting lineup for both teams will still be based on popularity (voting is going on at NBA.com). But who do you think is deserving of the starting C spot for the West?

Andrew Bynum (LAL): part of the NBA's best frontcourt

Nene (DEN): continues to improve defensively each year

M. Okur (UTA): solid big man with an impressive outside touch

M. Camby (LAC): continues to dominate the boxscores

C. Kaman (LAC): double-double machine

A. Jefferson (MIN): not yet 100%, but a real warrior on the court

Marc Gasol (MEM): like brother Pau, shows that he can play with the big boys

G. Oden (POR): a candidate for this year's Most Improved Player

E. Okafor (NOH): great on both ends of the floor

Or should the West just settle with a hybrid Forward-Center?

A. Stoudemire (PHX)

T. Duncan (SAS)

Pau Gasol (LAL)

C. Boozer (UTA) The Bulldozer!!!

no yao, pau injured early my bet is on Nene, he's quietly having a career year and now a consistent fantasy beast. TD is a PF, but then he can play the slot not shabbily too right mr A?

No NASH? He's leading the league in assists; and is definitely the best point guard out in the West together with D.Will this season.
Nice topic for another blog :D

Nowitzki also can play Center!

West All Stars:

C: Bynum, Duncan, Gasol
