Lopez Named All-Star 

Post#1 » by Hello Brooklyn » Wed Jan 30, 2013 10:00 pm

Time to rejoice friends.

Lopez has been named as Rondo's replacement. Only took 3 times for the NBA to get it right.

Brook Lopez of the @BrooklynNets has been named by NBA Commissioner David Stern to replace injured East All-Star Rajon Rondo of the Celtics

I'm glad he's an All-Star and he deserves it, but it's still a slap in the face by the coaches.

Stern actually did something to benefit the Nets!?!?

Congrats to Lopez! The snub has been un-snubbed for "basketball reasons".

Awesome!

I still don't understand how some people actually think JR Smith is more deserving than Brook. He's a scorer that does nothing else and he's shooting below 40%.

If this overrated, chucking, POS really thinks he deserves to be an all-star then hes got another think coming.

Getting thousands of Knick fans doesn't make you an all-star. And try shooting above 39%

How is this guy even more qualified than Deron Williams? At all?

I don't understand where or who started this random fake JR Smith for All Star rubbish. So many more deserving people than J R Smith in the east that I wouldn't even consider him at all.

At gunpoint? Or are we just talking his house when he was on the road? Scary times we live in.

Congrats to our big man, Brook Lopez!!!

Glad to see it done. Whether its media based or fan reaction, glad Brook got it...

This should do wonders for his confidence and focus IMO.

Damn. Well, atleast he wasn't shot at thankfully like Rick Ross. Atlanta can be a scary place, man.
