Regarding Reggie Miller,

A significant portion of media voters that voted for the ASG players are closet Knick fans, which probably explains the Reggie Miller snub.

Same thing going on now with the Miami Heat. Alot of the media voters are Knick fans, so they are anti-Miami/anti Riley. Hence, why the Heat continue to get disrespected by national pundits. Majority of the media in general are significantly from northeastern region and have this wierd bias/stereotypes against South Floridians.

An absolute disgrace by the NBA…the idea that he steals a spot from a deserving player is beyond disrespectful.

To be fair "florida man" doesn't do anyone in that state any justice.

Knowing realgm GB, I am pretty sure most of the ones dissing Wiggins haven't watched one single full game this season, and seeing what Wiggins does for the Warriors.

Highlights. Box score. And they know the universe!

No sir.

Horford, Millsap, and Teague were reserves. Korver an injury replacement.

I've watched multiple full warriors games. Wiggins is very lucky to play with Dray and Curry!

So if Wiggins is unworthy, then Klay is extremely overrated with his 5 all star appearances.


Klay had a worse TS% and/or PER than Wiggins in just one of his 5 all star seasons.
He also was an All NBA level defender.

And finally this is about starting. Klay was never voted in as a starter.

If Wiggins got the 10th spot I don't think anyone would be up in arms.

Kobe had multiple seasons as a starter in which he was worse than Wiggins.

His last 3 seasons he made it on namesake alone. He was a poor defender, his team record wasn’t good, and he shot his team out of games on horrible efficiency. One of those seasons he played just 6 games. Another 35 games. And his last season he played them all just about and the Lakers were the worst team in the West. His first all-star he made it due to hype and Lakers, but had worse stats and efficiency while not being a starter for his own team. You’re telling me it is not even close that Wiggins could be considered better than any of these seasons?

Statistically maybe but 35, 36, or 37 year old Kobe takes Wiggins behind the wood shed.

As a Suns fan, I recall now that Dan Majerle was a starter in 95 when the game was in Phoenix. His numbers were 15/5/4, so honestly that was probably worse.
