Yesterday on Full Court Press, they were discussing their top 12 players in each conference THIS YEAR. Not to be outdone and because their lists sucked, I have decided to throw my two cents in. This is not an actual all-star team list, as I’m not basing it on picking a team or by position or any of that bogus nonsense. That would make too much sense. This is just a straightforward list of my top 12 players in each conference so far THIS YEAR. Let’s start with the east.
In no particular order:
Bron Bron
D-Wade
Jermaine O’neal
KG
Paul Pierce
Chauncey Billups
Michael Redd
G-Force
Dwight Howard
Caron Butler
Jason Kidd
Joe Johnson
And now the West. Again, in no particular order:
Nash
Kobe
Chris Paul
Dirk
Tim Duncan
A.I.
Melo
Yao Ming
Amare
Baron Davis
Deron Williams
Chris Kaman
I know there’s a few left off that have deserved it in years past(I’m lookin at you T-Mac), but they just haven’t really done it for me this year. Injuries also played a part in this(Did Arenas retire?) So, there you have it. I’ll compare this to the actual all-star roster when it’s announced. Should be interesting to see what top players are left off because of their position.

Last night, CP3 led a furious comeback to beat the suns and tie them for most wins in the west. He played the full 48 minutes!! Dude, didn’t sit once!
Let’s be serious, at the beginning of the year who actually thought at this point of the season, the Hornets would be in this position. Not me, they looked to be an improved team at the start of the year, an 8th seed maybe, but not a threat for the top seed.
The Hornets may not be the story of the season, but they definitely deserve some props. Most of that is due to the ridiculous play of this week’s Man Crush, Chris Paul (sorry David West).

It’s Friday, let’s party!!! Another full slate of games tonight. I won’t call for any blowouts two days in a row. I learned that lesson yesterday. And anyway most of the games are pretty ho-hum. I do think the Hornets V Warriors ought to be fun. I like the Warriors in that one. They were embarrassed last time out in big D and should come out with something to prove. Baron Davis will have a hard time chasing CP3 around all game, but the Warriors have enough weapons to pull out the win.
