NBA AL STAR GAME..
 

Starters was announced last thursday and they are:
West Starters:
Kobe Bryant, Blake Griffin, Chris Paul, Kevin Durant, Dwight Howard

East Starers:
Lebron James, Rajon Rondo, Carmelo Anthony, Kevin Garnett, Dwayne Wade

Reserves are gonna be announced tommorow..

Based on the players listed on the coaches poll who do you think deserves the spots for the east and west?

I'd say...

West Reserves:
James Harden, Russell Westbrook, Tim Duncan, David Lee, Serge Ibaka, Stephen Curry, and Lamarcus Aldridge

Damian Lillard deserves to be on this team but he wasnt on the poll.

East Reserves:
Kyrie Irving, Jrue Holiday, Tyson Chandler(Long overdue), Joakim Noah, Paul Pierce, Brook Lopez, and Paul George

Josh Smith will prolly be the best player to never make an all star team..smh and Varejo was having a breakout yr and prolly wouldve made it if he didnt get that blood clot.. smh

What ya'll think?

i def typed that other l in all btw lol

Melo - yes
Bron- Yes
Wade - yes
Rondo - with DR out don't see a better point card in the east
KG- although I'm a celtics fan I DNt see why he got voted on

West

All a massive yes but Dwight Howard .. His season is not that good and Kobe is singlehandedly doing everything he can for the lakers to make the playoffs.. No love for Kevin love?

Isnt josh smith in the poll?

i hate the fact the Celtics continue to get baby-ed...'oh they fell short last year and lost ray - so lets throw them two starter spots'

@OSKAR there was a different issued out for the coaches to pick their reserves from and Josh Smith wasnt on it. Kevin Love got scratched bc he's out til march with an injury otherwise he wouldve been in there for sure. Love's my 2nd fav play atm. def underrated.

@FreezyCT I can see rondo and pierce making it bc they are having good years and bc they east is wayyyy less stacked then the west. plus bynum's out so that opened up the big men spot

I dont see how Joakim Noah isnt starting they really have no big men in the line up cept Garnet and i'd rather Noah if I got wade an lebron

i agree with the bynum thing, but i garuantee you that anderson varejao wasnt on that list and hes playing out of his ass...the Cs are under .500 atm and Rondo is the only one really busting out there

on a sidenote, Monta may never see an all star game now..

@FreezyCT Monta's only a scorer. He has no passing or defense whatsoever.

@Phil Banks Joakim didnt start because starters get voted in by fans.. it's a popularity contest n he's not gon win that. plus Kevin got in bc east is way weaker than the west so there's always at least 2-3 hasbeens on the east roster. Cool thing is there's gonna be ALOT of first timers this yr. And even more next yr cuz I doubt garnett, pierce, parker, n duncan will make it again after this one and alot of the reserves from this yr are gonna one and done's..

lillard, holiday, curry, irving, jennings are gonna have ALOT of all star games ahead of em

lolz @OSKAR in here talkin basketball tho:high:

Yeah the allstar voting is a bunch of bullshit... a huge popularity contest Noah is one of the best centers in the league tbh

yeah most def.. when it comes to centers ppl be lookin at stats but what really makes a center great is what they do when they dont have the ball.. closing lanes.. picking up open players.. taking away shots.. none of that shows up on stat sheets but noah does all that
