DWade with a strained hamstring - might be out for an extended period of time including all-star game - bummer.
With Wes averaging 16.4 ppg I wish he would have had a shot too, but nope.

Not sure if this is a complete list but it says Jimmy is the 26th Juco kid to make an NBA All star team....http://www.jucorecruiting.com/junior...ers-in-the-nba
...and Jimmy has some growing street cred - quote from upcoming SI Swimsuit Model Erin Heatherton:
She may have earned that household-name status through her work as a Victoria's Secret Angel, Erin, 25, says she spent her formative years in Skokie, Ill. honing a different skill.
"I played basketball my whole life — AAU, high school — and I was a power forward, No. 4. My dad's whole thing was defense, getting rebounds. He wanted me to be Dennis Rodman. I'm 5'11" and not the biggest person. I was more of a run-around, scrappy rebounder [like Bulls swingman] Jimmy Butler; he's scrappy as hell."
