It's official. LMA is an All-Star. Congrats to him.
Here's what Lillard said last year:
"I'm definitely going to take it personal. I said I'd be pissed off about it. And I am. I just felt disrespected. Because I play the game the right way, I play unselfishly, I play for my team to win games and I produce at a high level. I think what I bring to the game as a person, my makeup mentally, how I am toward my teammates, how I am toward the media, how I am toward fans; I think what an All-Star represents in this league, and what you would want people to look at as an All-Star, I think I make up all those things. For me to be having the type of season that I'm having, which is better than any one that I've had before, and my team to be third in the Western Conference, I just see it as disrespect. I'm not one of those guys that's going to say, 'Oh, I should be in over this guy or that guy.' I'm not a hater. I've got respect for each guy that made the roster. And I think they deserve to (make the team). But at the same time, I feel really disrespected, and that's just honestly how I feel."

Uh oh, don't wanna make Dame mad. Maybe now he'll make it into the top 25 in AST/TO
Congrats to LMA, really happy for him![]()
Congrats LMA. Just keep getting better so you can on Draymond Green next game.
Congrats guys
Aldridge probably drops out of this game if Draymond was playing for the East![]()
Kobe and AD are already representing the lottery team picks. Lillard doesn't deserve it this year. Even Parker should make it over him considering the Spurs record.
Isaiah Thomas making it is pretty crazy too. Think he deserved it though. Beats Manu's record for the latest draft pick to ever make an All-Star game.
Two spurs is almost mandatory with their record imo, props to the coaches
aldridge
Spurs representing the all star team and none of them are Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili. Times are changing, indeed.
LOL Phoenix having him and Dragic/Bledsoe last season and being complete failures.
I am cool with Aldridge being on the team since the Spurs should have 2 players but everybody else is outraged over the Aldridge selection![]()
That's actually a good thing as opposed to getting legacy votes like Kobrick while at the bottom of the standing.![]()
I guess they're fine with Davis making it even though his team is near the bottom of the conference and dude gets hurt like every other game.
John Starks made the all-star team after going undrafted![]()
Yeah, it's just interesting seeing Spurs in the all star game not be from the original Big 3. Kawhi/LMA deserve it though.
Aldridge making the allstar team and ranking second on the Spurs in scoring in a year where he's still trying to figure out how to fit in. He's going to be a real weapon for us as soon as he's found his niche.. Alot of people on here don't realize how good he actually is. Unfortunately we'll likely never see him go for 30-40 point explosions because he is the 2nd option, but he is definately capable and is THAT type of a scorer... I make be risking the ire of many people here, but I honestly think he's a much more polished offensive player than Kawhi. He's shown it for many years. Kawhi is just starting to show it now.....

Davis is the only reason that they don't have a worse record than the Sixers![]()
The outrage from everybody is only about Aldridge
mostly about Lillard
