[romsey31]

David lee passed over

[HarlemHeat37]

Good news that David Lee and Stephenson didn't make it, especially the latter, tbh..

Lillard hasn't played like an All-Star in a month or so, but Portland deserves to have 2 guys for their fluky 1st half of the season..

[HarlemHeat37]

:lmao Lowry didn't make it, but DeRozan did..

One of the biggest snubs in NBA history, tbh..man, NBA coaches are morons..

[irishock]

Duncan missed it. His 1st month of basketball after 6 was costly

[Texas_Ranger]

Congrats to Dirk, but fuck me if Dragic didn't deserve it more.

[HarlemHeat37]

Duncan has been the best player on a top 3 seeded team, horrible snub, tbh..

Don't let your hate /feelings get the better of your judgement.

[Texas_Ranger]

If the Blazers have two all stars why don't the Spurs have 2?

[djohn2oo8]

Millsap is in

[irishock]

Bosh should make it

[DMC]

Duncan has been mailing it in all season. He's one of those guys who appears to give the same effort all the time, but his effectiveness changes from month to month because the subtlety of his energy output makes it hard to quantify at a glance. We give him credit for giving 100% all the time, but even if you look back the past several years and compare last season, he sloughed off much of the time prior to last year. Even in the Finals in 2007 he wasn't that great because he wasn't in good shape. Then his wife packs up and leaves with the lawn boy and takes Tim's pocket change with her, and he gets motivated to step it up. Just goes to show that Tim is a hell of a talent, that he can just relax all season and still make all the accolades.

[DMC]

Coach Pop cannot be selected to the roster.

[Clipper Nation]

Looks like the West reserves will be CP3, LMA, Lillard, Dirk, Enrique, Dwert, and J-Whistle...

[irishock]

Who replaces Kobe?

[HarlemHeat37]

If Anthony Davis doesn't make it: :lmao..

[Xylus]

Fucking bullshit.

[irishock]

:lmao BARKLEY THOUGHT DJ SHOULD'VE MADE IT

[djohn2oo8]

How is Joe Johnson an all star?

[HarlemHeat37]

:lmao BARKLEY THOUGHT DJ SHOULD'VE MADE IT

Barkley picked Kawhi Leonard as an All-Star:lmao..

[Clipper Nation]

:lmao BARKLEY THOUGHT DJ SHOULD'VE MADE IT

:lol Barkley's takes are usually garbage, tbh.... :lmao at RealGM vanilla fans hyping him up as an analyst....

[irishock]

Barkley picked Kawhi Leonard as an All-Star:lmao..

:lmao thinks Duncan is the 3rd best player on the Spurs

[irishock]

Except for taking Lillard, EJ's picks were probably the best on the panel :lol

[MeloHype]

Who replaces Kobe?
Anthony Davis

[TSA]

Anthony Davis

Should be Cousins but will be Davis based on host city. Cousins is 6th in PER.

Yeah Cousins & Davis should've made it over Dirk

[HarlemHeat37]

Anthony Davis has been the best big man in the league this season:lol..

Cousins is the biggest team cancer in the league :lol... don't know why people think coaches would've voted the fucker in

I don't disagree with any of this, but I think he has been better than Parker this year..Tony is also coasting hard, tbh..

Doesn't matter either way, I would rather not have any Spurs in the pointless game, tbh..

[MeloHype]

Cousins is the biggest team cancer in the league :lol... don't know why people think coaches would've voted the fucker in
Nah, JR Smith is the biggest cancer in the league

[HarlemHeat37]

:lmao what the fuck, Joe Johnson made it?!?!..

[blkroadrunners]

:lmao Lowry didn't make it, but DeRozan did..

One of the biggest snubs in NBA history, tbh..man, NBA coaches are morons..

I concur. Lowry has probably been the best PG in the East this season.

[lefty]

Joe Johnson over Lowry :lmao

[TD 21]

I knew Duncan, Davis, Cousins, Dragic, Conley, Lawson and Lowry, wouldn't make it and I knew DeRozan and Johnson would. It's all about politics.

Duncan - Inexplicably not nearly as respected as he should be. Whatever respect the Spurs have received in recent years is generally attributed to, in order: Pop, the system, the front office and Parker. The Spurs should have known this and privately campaigned for Duncan and Pop should have a slew of scathing public comments.

Davis - Not yet an established All-Star and on a team with a losing record. This has always been a death knell, unless you're Love, then you get a free pass. Wonder why . . .

Cousins - In addition to not being an established All-Star and on a team with a terrible record, has a well deserved terrible reputation. The first two are damaging enough, but there's nothing worse than the latter.

Dragic, Conley, Lawson - Flat out not considered All-Star type names, all on fringe playoff teams and up until maybe recently, it was difficult to definitively pick one.

Lowry - Doesn't have a great reputation, but when you consider the fact that he's been the best guard in the East and the much tougher competition in the West, he's by far the biggest snub. The fact that DeRozan and especially Johnson, made it over him, is beyond comprehension.

DeRozan - Despite not being a favorite of the stat geeks, good reputation and in many ways, fits the cliche profile of an All-Star.

Johnson - Considering all their big names, they clearly felt obligated to pick a Net and with Lopez out and Williams not having played enough, he was the only one they thought they could justify picking.

[Baseline]

If the Spurs only get one all-star, then it should be Tim. However, we all know that it's a league all about marketing, so naming Dirk (Germany) and TP (France) is a bottom line move. And Stern/Silver will make the bottom line move EVERY time.

[lefty]

But that might be bad news for Raptors' opponents

Lowry was already playing with a chip on his shoulder, now he will be mega motivated

NBA = fucked :lol

[irishock]

Lowry will be in imo. Wade probably sits

Great points on the Duncan snub. Further proof that Tim is the most under-appreciated great player in history.

And unfortunately for Dragic, he's not from a marketing-sexy country. From the NBA's global perspective, Slovenia ain't China.

[Pelicans78]

I hate that Unibrow didn't make it and he definitely is an All-Star player, but I can understand how he didn't make it.

Lowry was the biggest snub. Awful decisions by the coaches. Seriously this is disturbing that NBA coaches are this dumb. How could he not make it?

Possible. Afflalo's been having a career year too.

Dragic and Lowry not making it is just flat out BS...

So many dumb coaches in the NBA today...It's sad.

Davis will be selected as a replacement for Kobe, I'd give that about a 80% chance

Well honestly, fuck it if they substitute PF for SG. It's clear as a blue sky that Dragic should replace Kobe. When unibrow brings his team over 0.500, we can talk, but not before.

It's pathetic that the two best young bigs (Cousins/Davis) in the game got snubbed.

[irishock]

Coaches don't buy into Unibrow and they certainly don't want to vote in a guy who killed his coach and has a terrible reputation around the league, tbh... Dirk got in because he's having a dominant season at 35 and that'll always earn the coaches respect.

It's funny how black wannabe analysts on twitter can't understand this.

[TheSanityAnnex]

:cry Cousins has a bad rep :cry

He'll be the most dominant big in the league for the next decade, mark my words.

[TheSanityAnnex]

Find me 5 centers in the history of the league that put up these numbers at 23 years old.

32 mins/22.6 pts/11.6 rbs/3.0 ast/1.8 stl

[irishock]

He'll be the most dominant big in the league for the next decade, mark my words.

Well, I guess there's more than a negligible percentage he'll be doing that in a Kings uniform.

[The Gemini Method]

Boogie, Dragic, and Davis definitely should've gotten in...well, Davis will get in but it should've been on merit and not some lame ass excuse for being lame enough to not get him in on the reserve level at the very least.

[ambchang]

Would be hilarious if Silver subbed Kobe with Duncan. This place would explode.

But of course, Duncan doesn't deserve it this year.

[Double-Up]

Find me 5 centers in the history of the league that put up these numbers at 23 years old.

32 mins/22.6 pts/11.6 rbs/3.0 ast/1.8 stl

...and that shoot more than 48% from the field? Not very good for a big even though he's having a great season so far.

[smaka]

As long as Monty Williams coaches the Pelicans, over .500 is a pipe dream.

Well then so should be ASG for Davis.

I mean, I don't have anything against Davis, but personally I find it stupid that stat padders like Kevin Love make the all star team, while he cannot even carry his team over .500. Or Joe freaking Johnson. :lol

[TheSanityAnnex]

...and that shoot more than 48% from the field? Not very good for a big even though he's having a great season so far.

The field goal % will come up with time, he's already improved from last year. He still tries a bunch of wild shots but that's part of what makes him so much fun to watch, dude thinks he's a guard sometimes.

Here is what impresses me the most, against the best defensive big in the league.

DMC 30min 31pts (12-21FG 7-7FT) 13reb 2ast 2stl 1blk 4TO
HIBB 28min 10pts (4-8FG 2-3FT) 4reb 2ast 1stl 2blk 1TO

[Pelicans78]

Well honestly, fuck it if they substitute PF for SG. It's clear as a blue sky that Dragic should replace Kobe. When unibrow brings his team over 0.500, we can talk, but not before.

Unibrow's a much better player than Dragic. His supporting cast has been atrocious and overpaid. Look at the advanced stats and it shows how much more Brow does for his team than the rest of his teammates.

[Pelicans78]

That said, Dragic should be on the team over Parker. Dragic is a definite All-Star. Same with Lowry in the East.

[HarlemHeat37]

Dragic has been much better than Parker and Lillard, tbh, and Unibrow is the best big man in the league IMO..

[Pelicans78]

Actually, I would give the nod to Dragic over Davis based on merit since he's played in more games while having a great year. It would be nice for the city of NOLA for Davis to get in, just like when CP3 and DWest made it in 2008.

[Texas_Ranger]

I'd put Dragic instead of Lillard or Harden. Wouldn't be even mad if he was there instead of Tony, but the Spurs deserve one All-Star. I can see why people would like to see Davis or Cousins in there but the Suns team was projected to be a bottom 3 team in the league and to be fair both Davis and Cousins have a better supporting cast than Dragic, who's playing without Bleadsoe for the last 23 games and they are still winning. He's also shooting 50% and not jacking up stupid shots like Lillard. If he would do that he'd average 30. So if Dragic doesn't make it instead of Kobe it would be a joke tbh.

[smaka]

^what this man said.

[Rogue]

Not saying Dragic carried his team to the playoff range but he definitely plays an integral part on his team and is a main reason why his team is where it is. There isn't much difference between Liltard and Dragic concerning individual abilities imho, if Dragic also had an Aldridge playing alongside him the Suns would've done just as great as the Guest team does probably.
