Outlaw's been good down the stretch but Roy is our main leader down the stretch. As far as baron being snubbed, he definitely was, but it was West that shouldn't have made the game, not Roy.


yeah but roy is a gaurd that took barons spot. baron tore up most of the west teams and coaches double and triple baron at times...i dont see how that ontop of his stats doesnt deserve the spot.

david west is just wack. it was given to him way too easy...if camby who is grabbing a remarkable 14 rpg cant get in, but a guy who can score 19 can...thats just wrong. 19 ppg is nothin special in this league, but 14 rpg is.

If the arguments are really only going to be about stats tonight, look up the list of players getting 19.6 PPG and 9.4 RPG or better.

Then talk records.

Then move on.

Camby plays great night in and night out but does Denver really deserve three all stars?

they don't, but camby deserved to be there; that's the problem. the fan voting may have messed it up for camby.

honestly i dont think it really matters, its just the all-star game and the fans should choose the starters. This game is made for the fans and they should be able to choose who they want to watch. That makes sense if they want to make a lot of money.

Baron Davis is a great player, i will give you that, but i cant believe some people are bringing up numbers. The fact is that Brandon Roy is the reason for the blazers turn around this year. He is the leader of the team, regardless of whether or not Travis Outlaw takes one game winning shot or another.

But i really doubt that Baron cares that much about not making the all-star squad as much as its being brought up here. Im sure he only cares about one thing, and that is the NBA Championship. Im sure he will be at the all-star game, enjoying and laughing with his huge smile and he'll be happy. I just dont buy that he cares THAT much

If you don't think Baron Davis is more upset than we are at not making the All-Star team, then you don't really know Baron Davis. They guy loves the spotlight and will take this snub personally. Very personally.

Don't you guys get it? From everythng I have read, Roy is supposed to be the next Dwayne Wade. You can't just leave the next Wade off of the team.

By today's 2 second attention span by NBA fans, Baron is old news now. Everybody is always looking for the next big thing, and basically ignore the present.


I wanna see Baron eat some people up over this. I hope you guys sign my boy GP too. That will really bring the junk yard dog out of BD.

I knew western guards is tough race. Even so, I feel strongly a snub and no respect for Baron. West Coach should be ashamed of themselves.


but good thing is...Baron can rest his tired body. And he is going to explode in the remaining season to prove that west Coach is wrong.

I may be mistaken but I think Roy and west are alternates which means any player on the ballot, regardless of position, can be selected for the final two spots. If it came down to Roy vs. Baron, I'll admit, Baron wins and was definitely snubbed but he should have taken West's alternate spot.

This is the worst all-star snub I've ever seen.

Baron Davis is having the best year of his career and definitely deserved to make this team. Hopefully this blatant act of disrespect from the league will get our players fired up for the second half.

The west coaches will pay for this...

What's up with the Blazer people comin over here talkin ess?

I haven't checked, but are we on your board talkin smack?

Roy's great.

West would be taken because you can't have all guards.

Ultimately it's the AI votes that ruin it for guys like Baron.

Another sad all star weekend in the bay area for all star snubs!

Baron Davis & Camby Definitely deserve to be an all star, I'd go as far as saying camby is going to be defensive player of the year...How' does he hold down the paint more than anybody in the nba this year and not make the all star game...
-----------------
AND WHAT ABOUT MARION!?!?!??!?!?
-----------------
And Baron Davis is only 2nd to Chris paul in the Western Conf this season...

Sad sad sad, IM not one to wish injury on anyone but i hope someone gracefully bows out this all star break with the "flu" or "flu like symptoms" that they've been robbing us with all month in the NBA and let baron davis and camby on...

I was bankin on owning the West All star baron davis jersey, am i the only one?

how fake, that vote system needs to be modified, fan votes only need to count for a certain %, they need to poll somewhere else for all star starters...

Tmac being named a starter via fan votes was horrible, he was injured so much in the first half its ridiculous.


BARON DAVIS = ALL STAR 200X
