    All the he gets on here from everyone but the dude deserved the all star nod this year. SOMEONE from our team should be on it. And the fact that they picked Mike Conley over him is ridiculous. Ridiculous how little we support our team as fans when it comes to this.

    It's only Spurstalk that has no respect for DeMar. They go hardcore crazy for DeMar on Twitter.

    I agree he got robbed. Silver that POS with the replacement picks disrespected him along with the coaches that made the original reserve picks.

    DeRozan has the fiercest loyal fans of any Spurs player I've seen in 20 years Online. They are relentless.
    A toast to them.

    Now what about the timing to protest after that thunder loss. Alexander looked like the better player. He should have gotten in over Conley.

    picking Conley over him for the All-Star game is a joke. 16 PPG 3.5 RB 5.7 AST to 20 PPG 4.9 RB 7.2 AST. How can anybody justify that?

    Granted i don't agree with it but the justification I have heard is that Conley never got to go an all-star game and that he deserves it as a lifetime achievement award.

    There was never a year when the Big 3 all made the all-star game together. The Jazz look good for half a season and get 3 representatives.

    Literally every playoff team except for us has a representative in the All Star game. All 7 other teams. And we can’t get one? That’s bad business going forward. It’s disrespectful too.

    Gtfoh with that Shai . I agree it was a bad loss but the tanking Thunder belong nowhere near the game.

    That's this league now. It's all about playing the game within' the game with the media and self promotion (not that the Jazz are a glamour market/team by any means).

    It was the East and Korver was an injury replacement, but the Hawks received 4 in '15, while the Warriors have had 3-4 a bunch of times.

    Ginobili, more than any other player, had his accolades impacted by the era because his prime failed to coincide with advanced metrics becoming mainstream.

    Still, at some point this organization is going to have to modernize and start self promoting. These things matter to most American Millennials and it's a somewhat controllable strike against them as far as appealing to them. It won't happen, but it should start with Pop ranting about the disrespect over the years.

    It' kind of hard to lament both Ginobili's and DeRozan's exclusions due to advanced metrics: that's exactly the reason DeRozan isn't in, because most objective observers see that he doesn't impact winning, like a Ginobili, or in this case, a Mike Conley. Ginobili would make the All Star game most years now, because his advanced metrics were so good.

    I'm not lamenting DeRozan's not making it, I'm saying given the same cir stances in a glamour market (Celtics, Nets, Bulls, Mavericks, Warriors, Rockets, Clippers, Lakers, Heat, Knicks, 76ers, Raptors), he more than likely makes it, at least as one of the first two injury replacements.

    By the way, coaches have many times picked counting stats guy over advanced stats guy.

    I just think this is an objective case of them getting it right this time. Conley has the best advanced stats on the team with the best record in the league. DeRozan isn't even top 6 on his own (less successful) team.

    So every other playoff team in the west deserves an all star except us? Makes zero sense. This is the type of stuff that Pop has to bring up and fight for his guys. RC too. It sounds dumb but it’s important in the long run

    Demar deserved to be an all-star, most people know it. Personally, there is no way Paul George is better than DeRozan....but the excuse is it's a fans choice.
    A guard playing out of position, averaging 20 pts and 7 assist and 5 rebounds isnt worthy? Than neither is the "allstar game". Boycott the allstar game festivities Spurs fans!!

    Some of these makeup games should have been during this period instead of having an all-star game.

    However, I do agree with the people saying DeRozan should have gotten in. This only hurts the Spurs in the long run. What free agent all-star level type of player would want to come here if there is a lesser chance of him making the all-star game simply due to having 'Spurs' written on his jersey. Pop and the higher ups in Spurs organization really should be going off about this and kicking up a fuss about it defending their player getting ripped off.

    Sad thing is Demar is an all star the last three years if he was in the East. What is the point of the conference split when the top players pick the teams?

    I thought this thread was about that home break in Demar had a while back and I was like damn the thief came back again to finish the job?!
