    The best part thing about that comment about being all around the globe is that Laker fans have no idea that it's going to be a rough couple of years. lol

    Most bookies had the Wolves at about 41 wins this year and that's right where they are.

    Did Dwight not get voted starter last year hobbling around for a garbage Laker team? Didnt see you worry about him taking someone else's spot.

    Not surprised the West is deep. He could have stayed with Orlando or another EC team. And would have made the starting team.

    Also besides Kobe and Lin, Derrick Rose is also popular around the globe given his jersey sales. He was #3 at one point. So it wasn't only just Bulls fans voting him in.

    Most of Kobe's votes come from the US, let's not kid ourselves here.

    Well if you want to be politically correct, it would be Mexican-American or Chicano-American or throw in Hispanic/Latino.

    But given that it's Southern California, American isn't always the case.

    I'm sry Giffin is not getting enough humbling. As evident by him starting in the asg. Griffin is around the 40th to 50th best player in the league. Do you honestly think he could be the second best player on a championship team?

    It might be due to the report coming out about some GM saying everyone knows Love wants to go to LA.

    I'm upset because Love isn't exactly an exciting player to watch. The best dunk I've seen from him was in an Uncle Drew commercial.

    lol yall salty. Kevin Love is basically the PF equivalent of James Harden. Very good offense, zero defense. If you feel Kevin Love shouldn't be starting then you shouldn't want Harden to start either tbh

    Do people honestly watch the ASG? When I saw Kobe and Lin top out with votes I wasn't even surprised. The NBA should follow the NFL pro bowl format. At least then you could be proud of being a all star.

    how did that happened wasn't he in 2nd place FC positions on the West?
    Howard should just decline the invitation and just get some nice rest.
    i know he won't
