Casual fans generally value individual stats more in ther votes, while coaches value winning more. Not surprised.

lillard mad as fuck right now :lol

Maybe you're an idiot. I have an opinion you have your own. Who the fuck are you to shit on my opinion. Are you on this page for discussion or to be the class clown. Dude, you're a goof....

In the west, I feel like Dirk was left out. Hes been far more instrumental than Thompson. If there is one player that is 35+ years old that should have made it, its Dirk.

Parker has been better than Aldridge. Hes run the team pretty well and really the second most important offensive player behind Kawhi

I hope they strongly considered Hayward.

Love has been putrid since irving returned but he was so good in nov and dec. He really should have made the team, imo..over wade. But wade was voted in and I dont think love deserves it more than the other reserves.

Wade-Kobe legacy picks stinks.

If that's the only change, the lineup might be too unbalanced

Kyrie, yes.

Howard, no, fuck that guy. One dimensional player, team sucks.

I like LMA but it should've been Dirk instead

:lmao Isiah Thomas as an all-star
:lmao 42 FG
:lmao Eastern Conference

Props to Lamarcus, deserves it and it has to make that clown Lillard upset.

I can understand the dearth of big men in the West (which is strange).

I agree though, it should have been Dirk ( scoring more points and at a higher pecentage ) or it should have been Duncan ( for his defense )

Now we got Aldridge who is going to delude himself that he's better than he actually is.

Not sure how a dude can be wrong that much tbh... Fuzzy is quite amazing in his capacity to never be right on anything

They just won their FIRST game without Davis:lol

39 Starts, 16 Wins, 23 Losses (41%)

Without Davis: 1-5 (16.6%)

Sixers: 7-10 (14.8%)

Great news for LMA. He gave up numbers to come and play SA team basketball. He has been very good and helped the team to their equal best start in history I believe. As he hasn't been putting up 23 points every night as he did last year and is only averaging 15 this will be a huge confidence boost for LMA. For him to miss out on an all star spot due to going to a real team and sacrificing numbers would have been a shame. Heading back to the all star game with his new team and his new role will be a big confidence booster for him for the last half of the season. This isn't just an all star nod for LMA, this is great news for the Spurs to try give LMA some renewed confidence and vigour for the rest of the season (especially after the GSW debacle)

Honestly I don't give a shit about the all star game, in fact I hate it. But this is great news for LMA and the Spurs in the run to the playoffs and I hope he has a great second half of the season. Especially as Duncan is down for now it's his time to show us what he can do on both ends of the floor and get his confidence up and let him know he can be the man when we need it.

Not great news because it only pumps up his ego when he doesn't really deserve the award.

I prefer him having more of an urgency of improving his game rather than him resting on his laurels.

congrats

The games they lost and won:
@ATL, lost to ATL with and without Davis
@TOR, Spurs lost at TOR too
@ OKC, Spurs lost at OKC too
@LAC, tough OT loss
@LAL, Lakers shot 32FT's to NOP's 14. Had 6 players score in double digits while the Laker$ only had three.
vsSAC, beat a Kings team that's playing well

Good job by the media, finally picking up on how overhyped this dude is :tu They even compared him to Kevin Love which is actually pretty accurate now that he shoots 3's lol.
