DeRoazan has no case whatsoever

The Heat is 7th in the east and Haliburton has better numbers than Adebayo and the Pacers had a better record with a worse roster. In fact the moment Haliburton got injured the Pacers fell off a cliff.

Go worry about the nets who just lost by 40.

I could care less about that. Nets aren’t beating anyone good without KD.

But don't pretend that you don't know why James got snubbed for DeRozan. The coaches clearly didn't forget what he did.

Who cares about a trivial gimmick game. Harden has bigger fish to fry this season. Like a title

Just make the AS rosters 15 already. There hasn’t been 12 man rosters in the regular season in at least 10 years.

The only reason Durant and Kyrie didn’t quit is because they couldn’t get themselves traded. That didn’t seem to affect them in the least as far as votes. They also got back a dude that quit and didn’t even suit up for the season. But yeah, Harden is the problem.

Yo, KD wanted to quit on that team too not long ago. Just saying.

I bet he still does but the Nets have pretty much told him no chance. Funnier thing is Durant had Philadelphia 76ers as one of his top destinations for a trade. But he supposedly hates harden though .. even though they were travelling the world together this past offseason

I'm not saying Haliburton doesn't deserve to be an all star. He absolutely does. I just didn't understand how he didn't have Brown and Adebayo when they have better records

The Heat were in 6th place last week, which is when the coaches selected the reserves. Adebayo deserves to be there just like Brown does

I think Harden is cool with KD and even Kyrie. They played together in the offseason.

He is definitely cool with KD by civil with Kyrie.

DeRozan, Brown, and Adebayo I cannot. Sorry, it's absurd. Harden has completely transformed the offense for us and turned us into a contender.

You don't think Brown and Adebayo should have made it but Haliburton should have?

DeRoazan has no case whatsoever

I’m not saying they shouldn’t have, I’m saying it when deciding between Bam vs Harden or Brown vs Harden, it’s unfathomable to come to the conclusion that they should be in over Harden.

Hopefully fuel even though I'm sure a chance at a ring is all that matters at this point for him.

I doubt Harden cares. The All Star game is about popular players and he just isn't a big name anymore. Despite averaging 20/10 like it's easy to do.

Still don't think he cares

I don't either. Is it BS? Is it a snub? Yeah, absolutely. Averaging 20 pts and 10 assists per game is not an easy thing to do. There are only a few players that have done it consistently throughout their careers and he is one of them. Not even Steve Nash during his MVP years was doing that. John Stockton never did it. Chris Paul has done it twice and then he's had a bunch of other seasons where he's been right at 20/10 but he's also arguably the best point ever. Harden definitely was snubbed, but I don't think it's going to crush him.

Harden just has baggage and is a disliked NBA character because of his trade request & foul baiting. Every NBA writer is drooling over themselves about Haliburton despite Harden having essentially the same stat line.

Shut up

I don’t care. He can use the rest and I’m pretty sure he knows some places to go to during All star break

Karma is a female dog bozo. Now Kyrie quit on your sorry franchise. KD is next

Harden is averaging more points and assists per game
