3...2...1....Magic fans (and deservedly so - should be Hedo).

[TMACFORMVP]

Hedo got robbed again, he's had a much better season than Allen and still on a very good Magic team.

GREATNESS IS RAY ALLEN

[T-Spot]

I'd like to say told you so to everyone who doubted that Ray Allen would be chosen.

Not because of he stats.

Its just more politically correct to allow the Celtics two All-Stars because they have the winningest record. The NBA will not allow Orlando, Toronto, Cleavland, ect to have more All-Stars than the Celtics.

Only the Pistons because the league loves them.

JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!! Ray is a professional, congrats. Somewhere Hedo is going balistic...Stern watch out , Turkeyglu is comin!

[telele]

What the hell is the league doing Ray Allen of all people should not be an Allstar this is BS. RJ , Turk or VC and a few more should of got the spot I don't care how good Boston is he's not putting up close to even Allstar numbers are you kidding me.

[About_Blank]

Carter is havin a better season than Ray Allen, even in fg%.. I hope Carter replaces JK if he really gets traded

[Mad Mike]

best record in the league (watch the language and name calling)...whats rj, turk and VC record?

[SactownHrtBrks8]

Son of a...

best record in the league bitches...whats rj, turk and VC record?

This is an Allstar game not who is the best team give aways. I can understand it being a way of helping you get an Allstar spot if your team is doing well but 18PPG 4reb and 3ast is not cutting it for an allstar spot I don't care how good your team is Ray is not an Elite player this year. I guess you would rather still see Ray Allen on the team throwing up 3's all night.

[SOUL]

Bad pick.

[Texas Longhorns]

They again forgot about Hedo.

KG is still an all-star, whether he is playing in the game or not.

Hedo got robbed, again.

And the rest of RealGM cries at the notion of more Calderon threads..

19 points 6 rebounds 4 assist is not much better than what ray is putting up. Plus you put in the fact that his team has the best record in the league, i think ray is a good choice. Dwade should not be in this game either.

don't even get me started on that backup kevin ollie type pg jose Calderon.

lmao.

You're using Mike Breen logic. No one on an average or losing team deserves to be an All-Star.

Hey, LeBron's team isn't first, why is he an All-Star? Dwight?

If you can really say that Wade isn't an All-Star in your book, then I feel sorry for you.

Hedo has put up better stats on a very good team. The Celtics are good, but do not deserve what is now essentially 3 All-Star selections, while teams right behind them like Orlando and Cleveland have one.
