	NBA All-Star Weekend - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		If an All-Star is unable to play (due to injury or other reasons), his vacancy is filled by the NBA Commissioner.
		All-Star Starting Lineups were announced on February 2, 2006.
		All-Star Weekend has a series of events that are open to the public.

	National Basketball Association - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In 1950, the NBA consolidated to eleven franchises, a process that continued until 1954, when the league reached its smallest size of eight franchises, all of which are still in the league (the Knickerbockers, Celtics, Warriors, Lakers, Royals/Kings, Pistons, Hawks, and Nationals/76ers).
		Through this period, the NBA continued to strengthen with the shift of the Minneapolis Lakers to Los Angeles, the Philadelphia Warriors to San Francisco, and the Syracuse Nationals to Philadelphia, as well as the addition of its first expansion franchises.
		The NBA landed the most important college star of the era, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (then known as Lew Alcindor), who together with Oscar Robertson led the Milwaukee Bucks to a title in his second season, and who later played on five Laker championship teams.

	NBA All-Star Game: The Hip-Hop Lifestyle - AOL Black Voices
		In recent years, the NBA All-Star Weekend has become one of America’s hottest annual entertainment events of the year, rivaling the Grammys and the Oscars in its presence and stature.
		Yet unlike those two award-giving shows, both whom usually hold their events in Los Angeles or New York City, the NBA All-Star weekend is a traveling act, hitting different cities and giving these select locales a chance to generate hundreds of millions of dollars.
		It was interesting to see the convergence of the NBA and the world of hip-hop, not just in style (Sixers point guard Allen Iverson made sure he was decked out from head to toe in platinum jewelry and the latest urban threads).

		Amare Stoudamire, the injured star forward for the Phoenix Suns, had flown into Houston specifically for this event, and the bright, windowed room in the high-rise downtown hospital had been made ready for his arrival.
		NBA players line the halls as Boston's Paul Pierce and Detroit's Rasheed Wallace stride by, doing their best to remain as anonymous as tall, slender fellows wearing outrageously expensive jewelry can.
		A group of children for the NBA Cares charity were also waiting, as they would be posing with the players for their own photo.
