Gasol is on the ballot as a forward and is second behind Durant. That's what I'm basing my predictions on.
 
Here are my predictions:
East:
F Lebron
F Amare Stoudemire
C Dwight Howard
G Derrick Rose
G Dwayne Wade

West:
F Kevin Durant
F Pau Gasol
C Andrew Bynum
G Chris Paul
G Kobe Bryant
But here is who I want based on their productivity to their respective teams:
East:
F LeBron James (one player per team, James gets it over Wade)
F Danny Granger (I still don't think Stoudemire is good enough, so Granger by default)
C Dwight Howard (I'd like to see Bargnani, but Howard's defense makes the case)
G Rajon Rondo (it's so much fun to watch Rondo)
G Derrick Rose (I never liked him, but he seems to be his team's frame)

West:
F Kevin Durant (stats are down, but he's still very good)
F Luis Scola (Dirk probably deserves it more, but heaven help me, I love to watch Scola)
C Pau Gasol (I want Duncan here, but Gasol's stats are so good)
G Chris Paul (Tony Parker and Steve Nash might deserve it here, too)
G Manu Ginobili (I'm probably passing on Kobe just out of spite)
