Amare Stoudemire finally takes Carmelo Anthony place in the Western lineup, and Chris Paul finishes above T-Mac .Mo Williams (Cle), Rashard Lewis (Orl) and David West (NO) played as reserves despite not being listed in the Top 10 voting results for their positions.Since 1975, the NBA All-Star selections have been left to the fans who vote to determine the starting five for each team. NBA coaches complete the rosters. Until 1974, the starters per team and three bench players were chosen by sport writers and sport casters. Until 1973, each NBA team had to be represented with at least 1 player and a maximum of 3 players.
