(Cites to great job DH does in guarding Tony Parker and AI...

yeah. read something like that when the all-star voting started. they already have Dork, Josh, JET, Stack, and Dampier. and he still wants Harris? each team can only have a maximum of 5 players on the ballot. and its not even that the little punk would be voted in.

Take Damp off and put Devin on...

The problem is that theres a serious lack of centers to put on all-star ballots. I mean, who do you seriously think deserves to be on the ballot as a center?

Meanwhile, there is a plethora of more deserving point guards in the conference than Harris. AI, Parker, Chris Paul, Steve Nash and Deron Williams to name just a few.

Uh, Mark.....DH isn't putting up All Star Numbers. Could that be the reason?

[Mr. Body]

Harris is worth mention before Dampier, of course, even if he won't sniff an All-Star game. Meanwhile, the NBA should change it from 2 guards, 2 forwards, 1 center to 2 guards, 3 frontcourt players.

No, the ballot was made before the season started.

DH just got caught in a numbers crunch, like the whole TD at center fiasco.

that's how its gonna be next year. 2 backcourt and 3 frontcourt. really funny to see antoine walker being listed as a guard.

Mark Cuban has too much time on his hands. Why would that stupid punk even be worrying about this.

"Mark, I'll be honest. It's because everybody hates you, OK? Nobody wants to be your friend, nobody wants to play nice with you, and everybody laughs at you behind your back because we think you're a loser and we hate you. OK? "

Really? Where?

On page 1...

-One post commenting about the next fight and a tv deal with a press release,press releases are not ads. But he mentions how to get tickets in the non press release area so I will grant you that one

-Then one post where he mentions a green out with t-shirts to support our troops. Thats not an ad.

One page 2....

Nothing


So I am assuming you meant to use another word besides advertisement.

Cuban: "Hopefully NBA fans and coaches will be smart enough to recognize the mistake and vote him on to the All Star and All Defensive teams this summer..."

Is there a summer "all-star" team that I didn't know about?

Also, best defensive point guard in the NBA? The first name that comes to mind is Jason Kidd...but shit. What about Eric Snow or even Jacque Vaughn?

Whatever. Cuban is a joke.

[Rummpd]

I like Harris as he was at Wisconsin but there are five PGs far better at this stage of his career:
Parker, Nash, Williams and Paul in the West alone + Kidd + Baron Davis also deserves consideration as well.

Seriously can anyone on Dallas be all D? He might be ok on that end but that team still cannot make needed stops.

[Rummpd]

Plus right now the Mavs stink. Winning is what ultimetely defines a player.

Ah I see, so you do not know what an ad is. Thanks for playing.

ZOMG MMA DROOLZ!111

The reason Devin Harris won't be on the All Star team is the same reason Bruce Bowen won't be.

The NBA could care less about defense...

You think that would have realized by now that the teams at the end, holding the championship trophies up are all about D.
