well this got a little bit more interesting again...David Stern picks the replacement for Rondo sometime during the week. Brook Lopez is certainly most deserving but Stern might replace an injured guard with another guard which means that it's probably going to come down to Jennings and Deron Williams.

The Rondo injury with respect to All Star game could be good news or bad news.  Does he pick Pierce because Rondo is a Celtic?  If he doesn't pick Jennings, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeze let it be Lopez.

Rondo was the starting point guard, so more than likely he's going to pick another guard, which leaves Lopez out. That means either Deron or Jennings... so Deron is the likely choice. Brooklyn having no All Stars at all was ridiculous, and the Nets are in third place right now in the Eastern Conference.

Revisiting this.....I read on RealGM that Noah might not be able to play in the ASG because of his foot. Does that open the door back up for BJ? Or did his abysmal last few games pretty much put all of that to bed?

Eh, there's a chance I guess. The only other player that might have a chance at making it is Deron Williams, both off name recognition and because he was the only other player that was getting consideration before. 

 

Maybe they'll give it to Jennings out of pity, or because Milwaukee doesn't have any All Stars.
