NBA.com: Sonics’ Allen and Jazz’s Okur Named as Replacements in NBA All-Star Game

Quote:

LAS VEGAS, February 13, 2007 – Ray Allen of the Seattle SuperSonics and Mehmet Okur of the Utah Jazz have been named by NBA Commissioner David Stern as a replacements for injured West All-Stars Allen Iverson (ankle) of the Denver Nuggets and Steve Nash (shoulder) of the Phoenix Suns for the 2007 NBA All-Star Game on Sunday, February 18 in Las Vegas.

Good for Memo... he deserves to be there and IMO should be getting the most props as a former Piston whose skills we miss the most other than all the love thrown at Ben and Darko.

Way to go Okur.

Stern must really like him.

Memo not only has the numbers, he also has hit as many clutch shots this year as anyone in the association. Congrats to Memo!

More so than Vinsanity or Kidd who were underacheivers on the Nets who are only 4 games better than the Hawks who only have one supa star in Johnson.

Wonder who else will drop out before the actual game on Sunday?
