"yeah you're outplaying all-stars based on stats, but you're not winning yet!"
two years later
"yeah you're playing at an all-star level on a winning team, but young guys on losing teams have better stats!"

some guys are just held to a different standard. people have had their minds made up on what they think booker is and don't want to see it any other way.

Cp3 is a much better overall player than Booker. How doesnt it make sense that hes in and Devin isnt?

Message to Book: it’s the coaches that didn’t vote you in. Feel free to kick all their a$$e$ for the rest of the year.

Don't worry his hype will explode during the Playoffs and make multiple after.

He's been good, but DeRozan has been better and I dont hear anyone complaining about him getting snubbed.
It's not an egregious omission by any means.
All Star selections are largely a popularity contest anyway. If you guys feel so strongly about it you should have been voting for him 3 times a day on Twitter or whatever nonsense the NBA does for the fan voting aspect of it.

Do you guys feel a need to be physically attracted to NBA players?

With only 12 slots, there's just too many good players who are on the same tier as the other players who are currently borderline all-stars. There's no way around someone getting snubbed. I'm more in favour of increasing all-star rosters to 15 at this point.
