    Woohoo, congratulations to Harden, he's such a deserving choice! I've been so impressed all season long at his motor and heart. What a great representative for the Rockets to have at the ASG!

    People really claiming Curry is better than Westbrook? Are you guys insane lol?

    Westbrook averages 20 and 9. Leader in rebounds (off too), steals and blocks among guards. He's a beast.

    Curry was definitely snubbed though.

    David Lee? Really? Oh well. At least Lin didn't get it.

    Instead of Howard starting. Should have been Duncan. Then Curry as reserve or Marc Gasol.

    This is great for Houston but unfortunately James doesn't deserve it this year. He has hurt the team chemistry by not playing defense, leading the league in turnovers and forcing shots. His own teammates are starting to criticize him. A lot of this is McHale's fault for playing him at PG instead of SG, not reining him in on offense and let him get away with lackluster defense. The Rockets have lost 8 of their last 9 games and nobody on the team deserves to be an All Star. They need a new coach who stresses defense and plays the PG as PG and the SG as SG. Then Harden will play better and deserve being on the All Star team.

    Cool. Maybe he will be used as the "6th man" haha. Wonder how he feels going back to his old role.

    Congrats James Harden! Honestly, I think the rest would be great for him but why not show off the great city of Houston when the whole League's eyes are watching?

    I (embarrassingly) just checked your post history. Is that really why you don't think Harden should be an all star?

    Yeah really - he's hurting the team right now. Did you watch the last 10 games? He's shooting around 25% and averaging about 5 turnovers a game. I didn't look up the stats but I don't think I'm far off.
