The NBA All-Star Game is a time to celebrate the best players in the NBA. Fans gather around their television sets and watch in amazement as their favorite players put on a show. However, here at Steamy Sports, we look at all angles of sports. With that in mind, I present to you the top five worst players in the NBA All-Star game.

5) Brandon Roy, Portland Trail Blazers

Don’t get me wrong, Brandon Roy is a very good player. He’s no doubt the best player from his class. But an All-Star? No way. You’re telling me that you’d rather have Roy on your team right now instead of Baron Davis, Josh Howard or Manu Ginobili? Didn’t think so.

4) Dwyane Wade, Miami Heat

Do fans actually watch the NBA before casting their vote? Dwyane Wade plays for the worst team in the league. He missed the beginning of the season due to multiple injuries. To top it off, Wade isn’t even playing up to par since he’s returned. He’s a shell of his former self right now.

3) David West, New Orleans Hornets

Since the game is in New Orleans, Chris Paul making the team makes sense. But David West? Huh? West is a solid up-and-coming ballplayer but he hasn’t done enough this season or in his career to get an All-Star nod. He’s an injury-prone player off to a hot start. Wake me up when he does anything of note in his career.

2) Joe Johnson, Atlanta Hawks

Sending Joe Johnson to the All-Star game just sends the wrong message to basketball players everywhere. Johnson is the guy who left the winning Phoenix Suns because he wanted his own team. Now that he has his own team, his team sucks. And it has sucked for years.

1) Jason Kidd, New Jersey Nets

I’m convinced that Jason Kidd just plays basketball now to try to get triple-doubles. The days of him actually carrying the Nets to victories are over. He doesn’t even make players around him that much better anymore. Defense? He doesn’t do that either these days. Kidd is basically just moping until he’s traded. No way he should be on an All-Star team.

Jason Kidd has been in the news a lot recently. Last year, Kidd got a divorce from his wife Joumana. This summer, Kidd played great the Team USA and helped them win their qualifying tournament. Currently, not only is his new girlfriend Hope Dworaczyk pregnant, Kidd is involved in numerous trade rumors.

With his New Jersey Nets suffering through a losing season, talk from within the organization indicates that the Nets are willing to trade Kidd. Many teams including the Dallas Mavericks, Los Angeles Lakers and Cleveland Cavaliers have all been linked to Kidd.

While Kidd would no doubt make all three of those teams better, there is one team out there where he’d be an absolutely perfect fit. That team is the Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets, who are in the thick of the Western Conference playoff race, will be good without him. However, with Kidd on their side, Denver would be great.

If Kidd has a weakness to his game, it’s scoring the basketball. He’s a great playmaker, a fantastic rebounder and he’s still a capable defender. Even though his current NBA team isn’t very good, there’s no doubt Kidd remains one of the best point guards in the league.

That said, Kidd’s ability to put the ball in the basketball has diminished. With the Nuggets, though, that wouldn’t matter. Allen Iverson and Carmelo Anthony are two of the better scorers in the NBA and would more than mask Kidd’s weakness.

A trio of Kidd, Iverson and Anthony would instantly make the Nuggets a championship contender. Kidd will be able to concentrate on setting up his twin scoring teammates, while Iverson and Anthony will just have to worry about racking up the points. It sounds like a perfect marriage for Kidd and the Nuggets.
