It just seems like there use to be more people on both sides. This time around it seemed like they only had the "big Names" for the most part. I mean, back in the day Parker, Ginobili, and even Beno made the squads and they weren't "name brands" so to speak back when. I thought George Hill would of made at least a reserve just like Beno did. Not even Chalmers was in there. Anyone else notice this too?

ya i think so...
last year there were 10 players on each team and this time round only 9. even oden was not replaced.

I think they did cut the number of players from 10 down to 9.

Too many good point guards in this rookie class for Hill to have had a shot. Rose and Westbrook were clearly deserving and even if you were going to put a 3rd point guard on a 9 player roster, it'd have been DJ Augustin.

part of it is the fact that this rookie class is probably one of the best, if not the best, rookie class ever.
