Nah, three Rox in the Western All-Star Team is too much. Only Dallas will have three. They almost did it last year but Finley was injured. Even the Kings won't have many representatives. If Peja doesn't get it going consistently, then it could be Webber only. Bobby Jackson had a chance, but thanks to Bibby returning and that ****** Shaq, he's out as well. Two Rox players (and as starters no less!) would be enough for the people voting for the reserves. Here's my take: Starters: C Yao F Duncan F KG (Although C-Webb deserves this more at this point) G Kobe G Stevie Reserves: C Shaq F C-Webb F Marion F Dirk G Nash G Finley G Payton On the Bubble, replacing Marion and GP: G Stephon F Rasheed The Suns have got to have a representative this year, the way they are playing. Blazers are hot too at this point, but knowing them, they might taper off.
Cat doesnt belong to the all-star. First he can't shoot , Second he can't pass, Third he hogs the ball too much, Fourth he think too highly of himself. He's just another version of John Starks with only 2 inches taller.
Gary Payton is making the all-star game. He's scoring as much as ever and at the same time is leading the league in assists.
Cuttino had a bad game coming off of an injury....does everyone on this board have something wrong with their memory that they can't remember anything good about Cat? pgabriel - since you claim to have watched this game what happened in the fourth when Rudy left Cat in the game...see you can't remember anything good. Cuttino is a young player that's not afraid to shoot b/c he knows that he has the ability to shoot, so when he has an off night people are going to beat him down.
Uhhh... okay Mobley may never make the All-Stars but... a little bit love from his own fans wouldn't go amiss right? Give me undeserving Rockets players than deserving/underserving other team players every time!
Little bit love? How about some love for Steve Francis? You people have pissed on him for the last year and a half.
Don't know how long you've hung out here, but alot of people have been dissing Steve for the last 3 years. Cuttino managed a better FG% last year, so he's the one we should root for and not pressure.
He's not afraid to shoot because he thinks he is the superstar on this team. But chill out dude, I was only referring to the post that said something about people making the all-star game on popularity. That was his last game, and for the record, I was happy when the Rockets drafted Cuttino Mobley because I can even remember what he did in the NCAA tournament against Stanford, which was good.
gr8-1, You've been around a long time, can you honestly say you have seen more love/less hate around here for Cat than for Steve? In all the time I have been here there has been a small group of fans trying desperately trying to beat back the slavering hordes of Cat "hatas".
So you're going to use Bill Walton as a stupid example where he was proved wrong by saying taking Mobley out, when Cuttino played well in the fourth? All I was saying was that why use the stupid example?
