Eric Snow on NBATV - Danny Granger is not an All Star

[layupdrill]

Eric Snow was on NBA TV today, and when the topic of Danny Granger being an All-Star came up, He said he doesn’t deserve to make it, based on his teams record. Though Granger is having an outstanding statistical season for Indiana, Snow named Rashard Lewis, Paul Pierce, and Kevin Garnett as more deserving to make the East team.

This coming from Eric Snow, who won multiple MVP's, Championships, and was an all star...oh wait...no he didnt! lol

[lil_penny]

Granger deserves it more that pierce and lewis this year... he's also the only one out of those three you could say is a beast.

LOL.

Granger is playing extremely well and SHOULD be on the all-star team hands down.

[Thunder Dan]

I'd take Yi over all of them

[sonic21]

he's the best forward in the east behind lebron

[Thunder Dan]

Yi is the best forward in the east behind lebron

I agree

[Red Hawk #21]

I beg to differ, Caron Butler is the best forward in the east behind Lebron

[sonic21]

I agree

fixing is gay

[xtremesteven33]

Granger is awesome.

[Thunder Dan]

fixing is gay

I've never done anything gay in my life

[endrity]

This season Granger has been absolutely amazing. I love Butler's game as well, but Granger has simply played better this season. One can make the case that he has been the third best player in the east behind LeBron and Wade, and he wouldn't be that far off.

[Hemotivo]

Who would make your All Star Team This Season?
Rashard Lewis

I have a picture of Wally Sczerbiak balancing a non-moving ball on his finger on my desktop, and he just so happens to not have a shirt on...whats the big deal?

Come on, you have to respect a guy who was able to spend 13 years in the league despite not being able to shoot or dribble with both hands.

Eric Snow carries an umbrella for Granger so he does not get wet when it rains.

[Armando]

Paul Pierce you have to reward a player coming off a championship and having a better team record then Granger.

Says who?

[timtonymanu]

Danny Granger is most deserving out of the 3.

Paul Pierce is great, but he plays with KG and Ray Allen.
Rashard Lewis? Jameer Nelson is who I would pick besides Howard from the Magic.

[mogrovejo]

American fans... where overrating individual stats, particularly scoring, happens.

Granger has developed into a great scorer. As an offensive player, give me Mike Dunleavy Jr. over him every day. As overall players, Pierce and Butler are better.

A few years ago, Pierce was a more statistically productive player than Granger is now. But I prefer the current Pierce by far.

[Rip-Hamilton32]

people actually took lewis over pierce and granger? must be because they hate boston but i'd take danny

[lefty]

Granger IS an all-star

That's stupid logic. So Barry Sanders didn't deserve to go to the Pro Bowl because the Lions sucked?

:lol no shit. Basketball is about winning games not racking up statistics. Of course you cant say a 5 PPG guy is better than a 20 PPG guy, but we all know Pierce can put up 25-7-5 like hes done his entire career as the man. He shouldnt be punished for having other stars around him.

Pierce > Granger

Granger > Lewis.

Paul Pierce is great, but he plays with KG and Ray Allen.
Rashard Lewis? Jameer Nelson is who I would pick besides Howard from the Magic.

So, if Pierce wasn't playing with KG and Allen and still putting a 26/7/5/58TS%, he'd deserve to go?

I mean, Granger can improve in the next years (it wouldn't be surprising, that guy is a workhorse) but if he's unlucky and Bird get him better teammates, he won't deserve to go anymore! Nice logic.

p.s. - I don't care about who goes to the ASG, I just hope KG/PP/RA don't go and get a rest instead and I don't even get the concept of the ASG as a meritocracy. But to see players being underrated when they improve their game because they're less productive in fantasy leagues is laughable.

[mardigan]

Snow is just about the worst commentator I have ever heard. I try not to listen to anything he has to say. As smart as he was on the court, he's the complete oposite on that show.

And Granger is the shiiiiiit.

[sook]

eric snow = dumbass

[baseline bum]

Arguments like Snow's are the same ones the retard media used to give Nash the MVP in '06 when Kobe Bryant dropped 35 a game and was unquestionably the best player in the league.

[Rogue]

RW/JJ/Allen/PP/Granger/JO/VC should be selected to the all-star game but not as line-ups, I don't think there is any need for me to repeat the line-ups here.

PP is not a shit though he's the "least nonathletic superstar" in NBA, but rashard lewis is different. Lewis is a pretty good player and a semi all-star, but I would list him with tmac as the most shitty players considering his unbelievable big garbage contract.
