I was fine with jones being left off until I saw how many they put on!! Tjones no doubt should've made it!! I'm fine with Royce being left off, he wasnt very good for the 1st two games

Leaving Jones off is ridiculous - when Jones is clearly the ideal prototype going forward - hybrid forward with speed/strength.

Jones can be the only one that you can say was snubbed.

Maybe Machado if you look only at his assists.

His was the name that jumped out at me. A lot of people really liked that the Buck's pick for him last year thinking his game would translate well.

Would like to hear from him during the regular season.

Honestly Terrence jones was
The most impressive of the rox rookies IMO. Just brought it consistently every game and there were points in games where he dominated and just took over. Leaving him off the all star squad is frankly a joke.

I am a homer and im proud .. that being said looking at this list, if i had any 3 or even 4 of these players on my team I would not hesitate to give them up for dwight. To me that kind of puts this whole dleague success into perspective. Sure they played great but they did it in a league where jermaine taylor was mentioned in the same breath as them in terms of recognition

I wouldn't have trade Ty Lawson, Javale McGee and Derozan for Dwight alone.
