Morning tip: John Wall says trailing Kyrie Irving in All-Star votes a 'joke'

BROOKLYN -- At this time last season, John Wall had the look of awe on his face about the first tallies of NBA All-Star balloting. He was first in the East among guards. Now, he's dismissive of the results that were released this week that have him fifth, behind Dwyane Wade, Kyrie Irving, Kyle Lowry and Jimmy Butler.

"It's a joke" Wall, who didn't make one mention of his strained right ligament in his knee, bruise on the same knee, high right ankle sprain and bone spur, told CSNmidatlantic.com after his 15th double-double. "I played like **** the first month and a half but I still was averaging like 16 and eight. That's not bad numbers."

The Wizards (14-14) only have recently gotten back on track. Wall had 22 points and a game-high 13 assists in Saturday's 111-96 win vs. the Brooklyn Nets.
