Norm snubbed!

Harden made it though. I still remember that year when Lou Will got snubbed. They chose Jimmy Butler instead, who was playing on an underachieving Wolves team.

luv the Norm Powell luv


Watch on YouTube


I think if anyone is out (AD?) then between Kyrie, Booker, and Powell.. I think Powell may just get it : )

Apart from that, I don't think anyone could/should of not made it that were selected. But, Norm Powell is an all-star this year regardless... guy has played fantastic. Clips MVP at the perimeter.

quite disappointing but I'm not surprised

24 ppg on high efficiency merits a spot

Good. I dont give a s..t about the all star team. I want the Norm we ve had all year. I want him angry, motivated, and feeling disrespected. I think all that s...t they said about PG motivated him that he could produce and play at a level better than PG. Hes been better than PG since he got here. Norm is our big three. He plays better with Harden cause he moves without the ball and hits the corner 3 better. Hes also lightning in a bottle similar to Jamal Crawford and Lou Williams. PG took so much work to get to his bag that it stalls the offense. Powell seems to be a better teammate, less talking.

Kind of reminds me of Jamal Crawford circa 2012. Norm is a guy that will really only have a few chances of being an All-Star. Really, he may actually care about having been one in his career. I'm pretty sure he will get in if anyone is out hurt or whatever. I hope he still gets it, I mean the dude has definitely earned it, before it starts to get late for him to have a chance.

Yes. I think he gets in over Booker and Kyrie too even.. as a replacement.

It's only a snub if other guys whom make it over you aren't really deserving.

We can call it a disappointment, but it's not a snub.

Also without any Clipper voted as a starter, it would be pretty wild to have the coaches vote two Clippers into the game.

The only team with more than one player voted in by coaches was Cleveland and they are at the top of their conference.

Have to take all those factors into consideration. If he made it, then Harden wouldn't.

Pretty much what Wakelaunch posted. Better fit due to his quick decisions and attacks. Draws similar gravity, great shooter and finisher, spaces floor, puts the team and winning first. He also guards multiple positions on the wing and disrupts the primary handler so no loss there either.

Curry shouldn't have made the all star team, but the game is in San Fran so you know the deal.

Looking back right now, just how great was that Norman Powell trade? 8-) 8-) 8-)

Maybe, yeah. Trae Young just replaced Giannis.

No surprise he missed out again. An invitation to the 3 point contes was his best get.
