Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant will not participate in this years NBA All-Star game. Iverson will be dealing with a family illness and Kobe has injuries. These two players will sorely be missed. Many fans wanted to see these guys perform. I'm quite sure if these two men could play they would. Both of these players will probably be watching the game.
Many people complained that Allen Iverson didn't deserve to be in the All-Star game. They felt he wasn't playing well this year and didn't deserve it. My thing is that the fans voted him in. It's us fans that watch and pay the big bucks to see these players. If the majority of the fans want to see Iverson play in the All-Star game, then he should be allowed to play. However, I am glad that Iverson made the right decision by staying at home to take care of the sick family member. Family always comes first.
Kobe Bryant is injured and cannot play in the game. He's dealing with an injured finger and sprained foot. I'm sure he wanted to play real bad. His mind said yes but his body said no. Kobe will probably be back again next year for the All-Star game and when he returns, he will put on a great show for us. With the playoffs still within reach for the Lakers, it doesn't make much sense for Kobe to jeopardize his health to play in an All-Star game.
These are two hall of famers who the fans will dearly miss on Sunday. The good news is that they will return to their teams once their situations are in order. The fans made the right choice by choosing these two men. Both are exciting to watch and have brought a lot to the game as well. I look forward to seeing what both of these players do once they return to their respective teams.
