    J-Will (I assume you mean Jason Williams) did not make the team.

    And didn't someone already correct you in the first "Punked" thread.

    Vlade Divac? Am I in some alternative Universe where the NBA commissioner is on crack!? Divac!!!??? There are FAR MORE deserving big men in the West, Dale Davis, Dirk Nowitzky, even Hakeem Olajuwon has played well, but Vlade Divac!? I'm at a loss for words.

    Huh? Jason Williams isn't on the team.

    HOOP-T....

    Saw that Kings/Bucks game last nite too...I was gonna post about how well Mark Pope played too....but didn't think anyone would believe me!

    He was running the floor, blocking several shots, making 3's....making Divac look like a used Yugo.

    Dirk spielt immer center wann die Mavs klein geht. Aber, aus Amerika sagen wir, "Dirk always plays center" nicht "plays always center." Ich habe Deutsch fur vier Jahren im hoch schule studiert .

    You know who's also better than Divac? Radislov Nesterovic.

    Stern had to pick a center to replace Shaq-- someone who actually plays there in games. That is part of the rules if I'm correct. If you want to say someone was punked on this team, there was. Hakeem. I'd take Dream over Vlade any day.

    Hakeem Olajuwon deserved to be picked. Over the last two games he score a combined 36 points, grabbed 23 rebounds and shot 14-23 in field goal attempts. I think if Olajuwon continues to play well he should make it on the all-star game. Whenever Olajuwon plays solid minutes, he makes solid contributions. Olajuwon is still a solid player who can contribute a lot to this team. He helps the Rockets in rebounding, block shots, defense and steals. He also has a lot of moves on offense. Scoring 18 points, grabbing 14 rebounds and stealing the ball 4 times in 25 minutes is very good. Most people takes a while to get back on track after an injury, but Olajuwon got right back on track.

    But you aren't, luckily or the Mav's would be saved, and well you'd be a mav's fan. [​IMG]

    We should be almost as angry because Stevie didn't make it.
