Well deserved selection. Most 20/10 double/double games of any player this season! Curry was very unlucky.

Agreed. I think Curry would have been next in line in the West. I couldn't bring myself to leave out Parker, Westbrook or CP3 for him

I'm not knocking Kyrie Irving (he is a heck-of-a-player and will one day soon be the best PG in the NBA), but when your team has a record of 11-32, you can consider yourself lucky to be selected as an all-star.

Congrats, you just handed the East the trophy!


Need to or not, amongst forwards, he is:
8th in scoring
5th in rebounds
2nd in blocks



He was a coaches choice, not a fan vote!



I think he deserves it. No other PGs in the east want to step up and earn it!

My bad it was a general comment, personally I think the all star game is a waste of time.

Who really wants to see Timmy d at 36 putting up jump shots?? They want griffin and Jordan and Dwight putting up highlights.
