    I thought Shaq pretty much nailed the West Reserves.

    EJ I think had the best East Reserves, though I'd swap Chandler in over JR Smith.

    Also: the hell was Chuck thinking? Jamal Crawford over Duncan?

    Uh and why is that? The WC reserve F/C spots are going to be tough to decide on.
    Aldridge/Lee/Randolph/Ibaka all have good claims to it imo.

    West reserves: James Harden, David Lee, Tony Parker, Tim Duncan, Russell Westbrook, Zach Randolph, LaMarcus Aldridge

    East reserves: Chris Bosh, Tyson Chandler, Joakim Noah, Paul George, Luol Deng, JRue Holiday, Kyrie Irving

    Turns out he did, ha.

    Deng does not deserve it. Lopez got snubbed wow.
    Bosh vs Smith is up in the air.

    Deng has no case. Deron or Lopez should have made it instead.

    The 3 guards, 4 forwards rule is pretty disappointing. Curry should've been there instead of Aldridge. But that didn't prevent Bosh from stealing a spot from a more deserving forward player. Deng is a toss-up, too.


    SMH at BSPN analysts calling Jamal Crawford and J.R. Smith as some of the biggest snubs this year.

    Brooklyn deserves at least 1 All-Star and Lopez has been their best player. They're 3rd in the East currently. Every top 5 seeded team from each conference has one or more all-star except the Nets.

    Lopez got snubbed? That's news to me.

    If anything Pierce should have been in over Deng. And Curry was the snub of this year.

    Anyone who mentions Jamal Crawford over Steph Curry should not be taken seriously.

    That's beyond silly. Deng has no case? But Deron has a valid case right? As someone mentioned, Deng's selection was a toss up.
    With Jrue and Kyrie, no way Deron was making the team and he is the one that has no case. Deron hasn't had a good season compared to the other two point guards so get that away.

    Lopez would have been a better argument.

    Yeah valid case can be made for Brook Lopez.
    As someone mentioned, Deng was a toss up with Pierce. Can't quite say Pierce should have been in over Deng, it's not like Pierce has been having such an outstanding season. I'd have been fine with either one getting the selection.

    A lot of that is just because Avery isn't any good. Deron has played a lot better with PJ running the show and I'd say he's been quite a bit better than Jrue since then.

    But that's not that significant a length of time to make up the gap between his performance and Jrue's or Kyrie's all season though.

    I guess almost every Net has played better with PJ running the show. (Maybe those that watch the Nets every night can update us).

    Curry not getting in is already pissing off a lot of people in the basketball world and it's a shame because he would've added some excitement with his killer moves and deep three point bombs. Aldridge deserved it less than Curry, that's for sure.

    Wally had season averages of 18, 19 and 20 points a game, close to a career 50 percent shooter. Parsons has some ways to go before reaching Wally's level.

    Also, even outside of Durant, Parsons isn't a even a top 5 SF in the West. He might barely crack the top 10 in the West, and I love CP.
