NBA: Jon Barry said today ....

and I agree with most of you guys, All-star game is meant to feature players who're fans favorites rather than those whose team win the most games (otherwise you could simply select players from Heat and Pacers, and make a Miami-Inddy United team to represent the east). Many fans would be frustrated (myself included) if we don't get to see the likes of Irving and Dirk playing the all-star game. Just because some teams are playing poor it doesn't mean they don't have any great players imho, but it's indeed a joke that Kevin Hate got elected a starter for the ASG. This guy doesn't really have nothing worth speaking of beyond his empty stats imho.

so what does that make the MVP award...Media's favorite award?

that's why les are the only meaningful award...hence

It has nothing to do with winning at all. That's Barry's point: it should be about winning, and playing top tier ball on a team that's got a winning record is different than putting up numbers on a team that doesn't play the game right. A lot of people can score points in a gimmicky, losing system. It's hard to be a top producer when the rest of the team is also productive, and when you're playing a winning brand of basketball. Those who can deserve the accolades, but heads like Kevin Love don't deserve it. If you decide to spend your career cashing paychecks and watching the playoffs from your easy chair, you're resigned to being a nobody.

bull of the year post...only couch potato's have this mindset...or guys that played in the league who didn't amount to ...

Spurs won all those games last yr and gave the world 6...if someone had a scored a few more points Tammy might have 5...instead he was forced to go home with 6, a pending divorce and having being outed as a cuck and a

^Well, he's white & his father was white and his brother is white. & for Media there is a solid % in that whiteness.

Agreed, Kobe is nothing more than a tag along like Steve Kerr, ol' sport

Jon Barry is still butthurt about being ringless. I hate the "players on losing teams" shouldn't be in the all star game argument. Let the fans have a say and if your stats are good, you should get to be in the all star game. Baseball does the best job with making sure there is 1 player of every team is in the all star game. Yeah, it would be hard to do that in the NBA because the rosters have fewer spots. If you have good stats, you should be allowed to have a shot.

After all those who're working in the media (journalists, ghostwriters etc...), as undereducated as they may be, each have a bachelor's degree at least, which means their opinions concerning the game & everything else are much more credible than yours imho.
