All-Star Reserves: No Melo My Man?

The all-star reserves were announced this past week and to the surprise of many, Carmelo Anthony was not voted onto the West side by the coaches. The same coaches who in a poll weeks ago while Melo was sitting at home on his 15 day suspension, claimed they would have no problem voting him on.

Interestingly enough, and unfortunate for him, Carlos Boozer, forward from the Utah Jazz did get voted to the West, but is out for the next 3-6 weeks. Most likely he will be replaced by Carmelo, but keep in mind that the vote goes to Commissioner Stern, the same guy who sidelined Melo for 15...
