The Biggest AllStar Snubs

Pretty simple poll. Just wanted to get a read on what the majority thought.
Obama did not shut down the practice of torture, but merely repositioned it, to the American norm. The torture regime of Ford through Clinton, year by year, produced more US-backed strapped-down agony than was produced during the Bush/Cheney years.

The Golden State Warriors. They are the only good team without a rep.

#1 is easily Baron Davis. A top 10 MVP Candidate and top 5 point guard, leading his team to 9 games above .500, and gets beat out by the "sexy pick" a 2nd year guard who doesn't have All-Star caliber numbers.

http://www.nba.com/features/player_rankings.html


Baron: 22.3 ppg, 4.8 rbg, 8.1 apg, 2.5 spg [Golden State is 28-19]
Deron: 19.1 ppg, 3.0 rbg, 9.5, 1.2 spg [Utah is 28-18]
Tony P: 19.2 ppg, 3.0 rbg, 6.0 apg, 0.8 spg [SA is 28-16]
Manu: 19.5 ppg, 4.7 rbg, 4.2 apg, 1.6 spg [SA is 28-16]


Roy: 19.3 ppg, 4.5 rbg, 5.6 apg, 0.9 spg [Portland is 26-19]

i'd be pissed if i were camby, baron, hedo or jefferson (both of them).

paul allen bribed the coaches by sending ipods to the people who vote for reserves.

Baron by far, not even close, he's been a Top 10 player in the NBA this season.

The biggest snub would be Calderon who got snubbed from the snubbed all star team who got snubbed from the snubbed thread.

JJ? 40% and 35% and takes 19 shots a game. Over 50% 45% 90% on only 9 shots a game.

It's a damn shame Camby is not on the west all-star. More of a shame than Baron.

lol.. true.. But elephunk has always been a TJ fan. So I am not surprised.

Oh well, I guess people don't like a funny looking spanish guy kicking their butts.. no worries.. But Hedo? He shuda made it over Johnson.. I guess ppl don't like funny looking Turkish guys either.

I don't understand how Baron Davis is not an All-Star. What else does the guy have to do?

The only reason Camby is not on the team, is because the Denver Nuggets do not deserve three All-Stars. Camby was more worthy of an All-Star spot than Carmelo Anthony this season, IMO.

WTF does Baron have to do just to make the ASG? Brandon Roy has 19/5 against weak-ass East teams and he makes it. :rofl: Baron has 40/14/19 (everyone else said he was a lock for ASG and top 8-10 MVP candidate) against TOUGH WEST TEAMS, and STILL gets snubbed. Roy and West can't sniff Baron's jockstrap, HTF did they make it over him?
Baron- It's time to make Roy your new posterboy, and destroy em Hornets. :clap:

There's nothing else he can do. I don't think he can possibly play better than he's played this season. Baron simply can't compete with free IPOds.

Coaches don't base this decision solely on stats, so I think the western choices are fine.

IMO the biggest snub is Hedo.
