    I also think Lillard shouldn't have made it. You cant reward players for having easy schedules, Dragic is doing more with less. He should have made it.

    Maybe that's why Joe Johnson got voted in instead of Lowry

    he's obviously Chinese

    i think Dragic should be an allstar but no way he was going to be voted in, it was up to the coaches, so chinese, slovenian or whatever, it would not have changed anything. if he was on the lakers or knicks things would be different

    he could have also not been talking about a countries population influencing voting, but influencing league-wide recognition.

    it's hard to get noticed when people (including coaches) don't get to see your team play b/c it's not scheduled on tv since there aren't as many people in the world interested in watching them. they'd rather watch other big market teams or other global stars.

    I think he's talking mainly about country population, guys.

    Goran has been balling, 20 points, 3.5 rebounds, 6 assist, 1.3 steals, 50% fg and 39% from 3
