No all star for Andre the year he deserved it most!

Don’t blame him. Dude is the best center in the East thus far.

Gotta be honest cause that's what I do lol. All the all stars look about right to me. They're all stars. Drummond just a glorified garbage man who gets big rebounding numbers. He's passing nice this year and shooting better ft's but he's not an all star in my opinion.
Sad but neither is Tobias. Bradley. Or even 100% healthy RJ. We need a trade boys. You get a CJ Mccollum here and then maybe with a better win loss record you can get him AND Dre there.

Unfortunate for Dre, but best thing that could happen for Pistons fans.

I’d put Andre on the team ahead of Love, but it’s not too outrageous he missed the cut. Of all the players who didn’t make the team though, Drummond is probably the most deserving.

Who knows, he may still make the team if one of the players ends up injured for the game or something.

Probably because they were unsure if lazy Dre would show up on game day. Fella needs to bring it every game and be impactful on every play.

I'd refuse under those circumstances.

All stars look right to me. Loves having a good season and hes on a top 3 east team. Maybe if the pistons actually won some games he'd get a all star spot. The only other non playoff guy on a team is Staps and hes a beast. I agree with the coaches who selected those guys.

Good. The Pistons are imploding and they cost him his spot. I hope Dre goes for 20-20-10 tomorrow...in a loss of course.

So between embiid calling Dre out and Dre getting snubbed from the Allstar game does this mean he’ll play angry and become shaq 2.0?

I don't see the big deal in this. Seems every year a player or two ends up on the team because one of the All-Stars can't play the game. It still demonstrates he's in that All-Star tier of players, so nothing to be insulted about in my book.

Either way, the All-Star game is pretty lame. Hopefully this motivates him the rest of the season.

I'm not surprised that he missed based on team performance. He needs to up his defence before he's a lock for all star.
I liked that he's developing tho and he's added a few things to his game. Hopefully this pushes him to keep going with it

He is leading the league in Defensive box plus minus, his defense has been really good this season, except when he doesn't give a **** like last game against Brooklyn.

Eh last season this would've been on point but its hard to be mad at his effort this season. We wanted him to improve defensively, play with effort consistently and become a passable FT shooter and he's done all of that. On top of improving as a passer as well.

I don't blame him for being pissed off...this has been a breakout year for him and he wont get the recognition he deserves because we suck after all the injuries.

Yea dre should have been in no doubt. Basing and individual honor on a teams record is ridiculous. If his numbers back it up and they do he should have been in. But such is the nba these days. Dre > Love and Horford.

Hope so. But I wouldn't be surprised if he sulks and goes into a shell. Hopefully he's grown up. Seems he has a bit this year

bballnmike · Post #18 » by **bballnmike** » Wed Jan 24, 2018 1:59 am

He definitely should've have made it. I think he's having his best all around year so far.
Personally, I'm not too upset because I doubt I'd watch either way, but hopefully this motivates him even more.

Eh, if you want to be an All-Star you have to go out there and prove it beyond doubt. Every year there are deserving players that miss out.

K Love and even Horford = Lucky.

Dre deserved it this year more than ever.
