It isn't great but there was a lot of talent in the West this year and West is a 19/9 guy who's shooting 48% from the floor and has a lot more range than Jefferson, so from a coach's standpoint, if you're looking at a guy who posts comparable numbers (obviously, Al is the superior rebounder) but whose style makes him a more valuable player, you go with that guy and that's West.

Al will get his in time.


West's jump-shooting style makes him a more valuable player?
I don't ever remember thinking about KG "sweet, I'm so glad he's showing off his range and taking these fadeaway baseline jumpers instead of working in the paint. "

If the Wolves had a similar record to the Hornets, we'd be talking about his chances at MVP rather than the all-star game.

i can tell how spoiled wolve fans are after having kg. It really shows after someone horrible asks for a trade or they don't have anyone representing in the all star game
