Derozan sucks too.

He's not good enough for me to spell his name correctly on the first try.

Every winning team in the NBA has an All-Star, except Phoenix and Memphis.

Gonna have to rely on the commissioner to get Dragic his rightful spot in the game, as a replacement for Kobe. Absolutely ridiculous that he didn't get selected outright as a reserve!

Dragic hopefully replaces CP3. He deserves it.

With this opinion, it is clear to me that you don't watch basketball, or are just looking to troll. I will refrain from saying more as I am afraid I may be reprimanded for insulting you more harshly.

East 1st timers: Wall, DeRozan, Millsap, Hibbert, + Noah, Irving, George all 2nd time
West only Lillard and Curry 1st timers, Harden 2nd

West was pretty hard to pick, Paul's played 34 games but Westbrook only 25 so maybe rightfully snubbed.

Paul expected out until 14th (roughly), ASG on the 16th. Possible replacement?

Who's replacing Kobe? Westbrook, Duncan, Cousins, Dragic, or Davis? Maybe Davis as the hometown favorite?

Do you watch raptors games? Or is your assessment based on one game?
