Melo: Going Vegas for All Star 07! (Updated)

Melo - Not an All Star in 07

Ugh - can't believe it. Melo didn't make it to the NBA All-Star this year. As the NBA's leading scorer, I think that would have increased his chances this year. Of course, we all know that the West has a lot of powerful forwards, and maybe that's why it's tough for him to be picked. But maybe the fact that he was in a brawl this year was a big factor on why he didn't make it.

Oh well, there's always next year, Melo! Just prove everyone wrong by leading your team deep into playoffs this year, or even to the Finals!

Update: 2/10/2007
Melo and Howard were named as reserves by NBA Commissioner David Stern. Woo hoo!!! They will both play in their first ever ASG!

Good luck, Melo!
