West Side
The all-star game begins on February 23-26 at Orlando, Florida. The all-star events bring excitement and amazing basketball skills to its audience.
The first events are the NBA Rising Stars Challenge and the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game were famous celebrities showcase their basketball skills. Then comes the All-Star Saturday Night, which brings 3 point shooting and amazing highflying dunks, but the main event will be on the 26th when the West vs. the East.
The East and West game will be exciting and many people believe the East will win because of their dominant players such as Lebron James, Derrick Rose, and Dwight Howard. Even though the West side are considered the underdogs they have won the All-Star six times the past 9 years. The starters for the West will be Kobe Bryant, Blake Griffin, Andrew Bynum, Kevin Durant, and finally Chris Paul. I predict that the West will win in a very close game.
The All-Star weekend is a much watch for any basketball fun, because it brings excitement to your living room and it gives you jaw dropping plays.

East Side
The NBA All Star Game is almost here. For the Eastern Conference Lebron James leads all players with over a million votes. Lebron James plays the small forward position. Dwight Howard is in 2nd place in voting for the eastern conference with over 900,000 votes. Dwight Howard plays the center position.
The starting lineup for the eastern conference will be like this,
<! Point Guard- Derrick Rose
<! Shooting Guard- Dwyane Wade
Small Forward- Lebron James
Power Forward- Chris Bosh
Center- Dwight Howard
Respectfully, each player listed above is the best player at that position in the eastern conference. The eastern conference team comes into this games with more talent overall at every position than the western conference team. The east team lost last year so I am expecting the east to get a little payback this year.
The game will be played on Sunday, February 26th, 2012 at 7:00pm eastern time. The game will take place in the Amway Center which is located in Orlando Florida.
I predict the East Team to win 123-104
