David West?

I thinks it (Please Use More Appropriate Word) they snubbed a deserving guy just because the fans voted a couple of his teammates in. Camby was the most deserving to go on our team and I'm sure he would have made it if Melo or AI hadn't.

There is no way in hell that West deserved it over Camby.

A 20/9/2/1 guy beat a 9/14/3/4 guy who is also defensive player of the year, who also plays with A.I./Melo, who also covers A.I./Melo *** on defense, who also got snubbed last year.

UNBELIEVABLE.

It wasn't even Chandler. It was a guy who stands on the perimeter and shoot jumpers off of CP3 drives.

UNBELIEVABLE

Although i'm a huge camby fan i didn't expect him to make it...3 all-stars from a non-elite team is a stretch. Most homers will disagree though.

He gets snubbed every year. I think DWest deserves to be on the team, and I also think Camby should have been there. IMO Camby gets snubbed not because of his defense, but because he doesn't bang down low on offense. It is no secret that he is soft on the offensive end.

hornets are the #1 seed in the west.
he's a heck of a player.

can't justify 3 all-stars from a 9th seeded team.

damn straight.
N.O. is killing it right now...they definitely deserve it.

The hornets are the team to beat right now....they deserve it....I consider Camby a great glue guy...defends and rebounds, but doesn't go to all-star games. See Dennis Rodman, ultimate glue guy, better man defender then Camby, better Rebounder, and I think he made like 2 all-star games in his career. Glue guys don't get the glory, even though I think Camby has been the most valuable Nugget even with his inablility to finish at the rim. Keep in mind Rodman wasn't going to all-star games, and he was playing for the best teams in the league year in and year out.

"But has Camby really been better than David West, Brandon Roy, Baron Davis, or Manu Ginobili?"

..... :lol:

I think punishing Camby just because 2 other teammates made it is stupid. if you deserve to make it then you should go, regardless of how many teammates were voted in.

Camby already said he didn't want to go last season.

TEAIM · Post #16 » by **TEAIM** » Fri Feb 1, 2008 2:11 am

Are u guys watching the same games? Camby is not an All-Star. I like MC but his defence is over-rated. He's great off the ball, but his man on man defence sucks.

Plus his shot selection drives me crazy.

I'm not hating but I don't know why everyone is so high on MC. Don't listen to retards like Barkley, he doesn't watch our games. I do.

Who's that guy up in Denver that frequently has tons of 10 block 20 rebound games? You know, the DPOY from 2007. Oh yeah, Manu Ginobli. He really deserves to be in the ASG.

okay...he doesn't deserve it then.
he's playing great, perhaps the best in his career.

but he's still not an all-star. i'd trade him straight up for anyone else who's in the all-star game for the west right now...age/injuries aside. you wouldn't?

I remember differently

your memory has done you a disservice.
he's said multiple times he doesn't worry about all-star games. of course he says that it'd be an honor to be selected...but he doesn't hope for it, and he thinks its important to spend time with his family during that week.

whether he means that...idk. i thought he made a push for the dpoy award specifically last year by stringing together a bunch of ridiculously good rebounding/blocks games in the last few weeks.

I can't believe West made it over Camby (and also Roy over Davis).
