2010 NBA All-Star Weekend Betting Odds - Sprite Slam Dunk Contest - It’s All-Star weekend in the NBA and Kobe Bryantand Allen Iversonwill not take part in festivities. Kobe gets some much needed rest. Congrats to David Lee for the nod. Lastly, I hope Iverson's daughter recovers from her illness.
The happiest people to see Kobe sit out are the Laker fans. No need to risk playing in this game. This will give him a few extra days rest to heal up before Golden Statecomes down to Staples on Tuesday or until Thursday when the Celtics come to town.
