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!!!
