Kidd, Maybe Carter, Expected to Make All-Star Reserves

<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The NBA will name its All-Star game reserves Thursday and the best guess among NBA pundits is that Jason Kidd is a lock to make the team, while Vince Carter, barely beaten out in the fan voting, is a tougher call. Steve Kerr makes his choices of the "magnificent sevens" for the East and West and like many, he selects Kidd but not Carter.</div>

I know Kidd is in, but I really hope VC is too.

With they way he has played the last few games, I'm not tha suprised. I wonder if this will make him go back to the jump shooting Vince. Cause now he doesn't have to play to be an all-star. We'll just have to wait and see.

He shouldn't be selected for how he played the past few games, but rather how he played the first half of the season.

Yeah, I know that, but he has had an alright season. He played horrible for a few weeks, and I think Ben Gordon might deserve it more then VC and Billups.

Hasn't Vince been playing great since losing starting position in the Allstar game? By votes he deserves to be in the allstar game and his recent performance seems to as well.
