At 38 years old. Unreal. Congrats Timmy!

nice poster material

Man all these stupid fans..

TD deserves his spot..

the thunder seeded 10th have two ALl-stars..

Tim Carried the spurs with Kawhi, Parker out for a significant amount of games and they are seeded 7th..

And I'm hearing my dumbass friends roasting TD...

[Russo21]

Pretty sure he'd rather stay home playing video games

Duncan has been by far the best Spur this year, tbh..he carried the team(along with Manu and Green) through what was statistically the toughest schedule in NBA history IIRC(December)..since when does the best player on the 6th seed in the West not make the All-Star game? The outrage is puzzling, tbh..

Pussy Cousins is becoming really overrated, but he did deserve it, although clearly not at Duncan's expense..Dominos making the team is a much worse selection, as he has missed a bunch of games, and now you have a 10th seeded team having 2 All-Stars..

It's funny seeing the reaction from vanilla NBA fans and media, though..why do they care so much about a glorified scrimmage? I'm never going to understand the obsession with regular season accolades and performances..

Kevin Love had even more amazing stat than DMC. I'm not suggesting DMC is the same type of player as Love. However, if you look at what Love does for a compe or this season and what he did for a perennial lottery team, the stats while playing for a lottery team does not mean that much. This does not even take defense, leadership and winning pedigree into account.

Awesome. Well deserved.

[Sean Cagney]

He's catching a load of hate on twitter. Expected, tbh

F THEM.......

This...tbh.

A lot of people saying Boogie Cousins should be there, and they have an argument.


But how about Lillard..? I thought he was a shoo-in. So tough in the West, especially at the Guard position.

No shoo-ins at the guard spot in the West. It's brutal.

[MultiTroll]

Nice that Duncan got his 15th legit selection.

But it cheapens it having Kirby with his illegit 17.

[DMC]

Suddenly the AS game means something. lol

The fact that MJ isn't in that picture pretty much nullifies it's significance.

Also, lol @ all of the others played either in LA or Boston.

[spursparker9]

Timmy is the only player from the 90s draft in 2015 all-star game ?

[milkyway21]

Duncan"s #15 passed Jordan, Malone & West's All-Star Games appearances.

[Sean Cagney]

DAMN RIGHT, you got TIMMAY.

[Fireball]

Good stuff!

[Raven]

totally deserved both durant and td in and liliard and boogie out. All star game is not for regular season players who can't do in the post season. Fan voting of course is a different matter.

actually, it is

[Uriel]

Wherever she is, I'm sure duncan228 is thrilled with this news.

[Raven]

if timmy wasn't included, it would be perhaps the first time ever that the defending champions doesn't have a participant. Luckily, the nba avoided that shame.

38 y/o and still best spur player... legend

Can't wait for the Kobe vs Duncan debate once they both retired.

there is no debate imo if there was the tim's fifth solved it

[elemento]

Can't wait for the Kobe vs Duncan debate once they both retired.

There's only a debate among Kobe's suckers.

Duncan is the best player of this generation.

Yea I agree.

I think Timmy's 5th le and the Spurs being compe ive in Timmy's late career win him the race against Kobe who was injured for significant amount of time in his late career and the Lakers being lottery bound.

But nonetheless, there will always be a lot of arguments for Kobe. lol I think the NBA can do a experiment: Put kobe's name in the all stars ballot even after he had retired. He would still be a starter.
