    Hopefully Harden makes it. If Paul is back, there is only one guard spot left since Parker and Lillard made it.

    Didn't affect Damian Lillard who is averaging 20 points and 5 assists on 41% from the field.

    I kind of wanted both Harden and Howard to not make the All-Star team. Not because they don't deserve it because it think they do, i was just hoping the snub would give them both extra motivation to step up their games.

    I would laugh if Harden lost out to Lilliard. Harden is a much better player.

    If Harden doesn't make it, he has no one to blame but himself & his inconsistent defense. Hopefully he doesn't make it so he can use it as motivation.

    He will likely make it even if he isn't selected as an injury replacement for Kobe

    But adding 41.3% from3pt line compared to hardens 32%. Lillards assist will never be high due to teams offensive ball movement .

    Harden has a much higher PER and both are awful defenders.
