NEW YORK Dirk Nowitzki’s streak survives, despite one of the worst seasons of his career. Two other old stars are no longer All-Stars.Nowitzki was chosen Thursday to his 11th straight All-Star game, with coaches overlooking the lowest scoring average since his second NBA season in favor of his long-term excellence.Paul Pierce will join him despite his own slow start caused by a foot injury and was picked for the 10th time. But Kevin Garnett wasn’t chosen after 14 consecutive selections, and Tim Duncan was left out after 13 in a row.
