we finally hit .500 and he has better numbers than Blake...I get it's a popularity contest but Love is a big name

Would a Griffin- Love lineup have been possible?

No way Love beats Kevin Durant at the forward spot.

Agreed. I might even say the same for Dirk. With young PFs Griffin/Love/Aldridge/Millsap in the West, not too many spots left.

Tim Duncan: Streak of 13 consecutive All-Star appearances snapped
Kevin Garnett: Streak of 14 consecutive All-Star appearances snapped

Wow, hadn't quite realized that.
