    Lillard probably deserves the spot over Klay, imo - but I get that winning is probably a huge factor for the coaches.

    Then put Lillard in over AD!!!

    Lilliard's team is overachieving and in the playoff hunt currently 8th seed!


    How are AD & Cousins in over him?

    How is Derozan or Wall in over Love?

    it's an exhibition game . . . for the fans. Kobe is a starter. It only makes sense that Harden makes the team, people want to see him play. This is a good thing.

    Derozan is playing better than love and his team is not only hosting the Allstar game but their also very good and a top 8 NBA team this year.

    Wall shouldn't be an Allstar frankly because he just not as good as a lot of the other PGs in the league imo and his team sucks. There underachieving worse than the rockets yet nobody talks about them like this Houston team.

    AD like JH is a face of the league he's going to get in even if his team had only won 5 games.

    Remeber it's coaches picks not us dumb fans. They know who's really elite and who is a tougher gameplan.

    All coaches no James Harden is still one of the top 5 toughest player to plan for when you play Houston. We take him for granted were lucky to have him. One down year were we still have a chance at 50 Wins shows a lot about how good JH is.

    Maybe being around a real coach will unlock his motivation to play hard on both ends. I don't know. Wish in one hand a s*** in the other I guess.

    from someone's blog on the web:

    "Noticeably absent from the list are Portland’s Damian Lillard, Clippers’ star Blake Griffin (whose injury issues wouldn’t have allowed him to participate anyway), the Cleveland duo of Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love, Atlanta’s Al Horford and perennial All-Stars Dirk Nowitzki (Dallas) and Tim Duncan (San Antonio)."

    if kobe is in, why not td? :(

    Us dumb fans are smart enough to remember how the coaches always say they reward winning...
    Remember how they justified voting 4 Hawks to the ASG last year?

    Portland lost 4 of 5 starters and are currently 8th! idgaf what you say Lilliard should be in there above Davis. Hell put him in above Harden... that would benefit us Rockets fans.

    Cavs have the best record in the East and they get only one AS? The coaches change their criteria up too much.


    If someone gets injured I hope Lilliard declines the invite. That guy gets no respect.

    Kobe got voted in by the fans... If TD says next year is hs last year he would get voted in as well.

    It wouldn't have but that's just my opinion. I still believe we will see a better Harden after the break though.

    Good for him. Well deserved. If he wants to be a starter, gotta work harder

    Too bad for our sanity there is alot of idiots on the board here. Case in point - this thread has what two pages, and a TMZ Harden bashing thread can go to infinite numbers in mere hours.

    This is the RealHousewives generation where they watch to hate.
