Baron Davis >>> Brandon Roy
Deron Williams > Brandon Roy.
Tony Parker > Brandon Roy.

Brandon Roy has become vastly overrated in only one season. Since when is 19/5 All-Star worthy?

I like West over Camby!

#1 NO deserved two more than Denver deserved 3 players.

You mean compared to the almighty Jose Calderon

I mean...he was such a snub that TNT didn't even mention him

Perhaps some of you should learn from Bosh and not vastly overrate your players so much and have some perspective.

Calderon is playing well since Ford went down. But an All-Star?

Uhhh...no

What team do you follow? I mean what team are you a fan of?

Damn I can't even stress how much Baron was snubbed. 22/8/4 and one of the best leaders in the NBA?

lol, I have both Davis and Garnett on my fantasy bball team, and Davis has been 'out-stat'-ing Garnett all season. Kind of wrong that he can't even make it as a reserve on the West team, yet Garnett was the highest vote getter in the league.

last time I checked, they are not in the playoffs, also Aldridge and Outlaw have been playing EXTREMELY well too, its not all just Roy

The only questionable pick on both teams is Joe Johnson, every other guy picked deserved it. Sure, there could be some debate on the West pick, but he deserves it because of how good N.O has been.

The J.J pick is just puzzling no matter which angle you look at it.

Baron is having statistically the best season of his career. People just don't like him, plain and simple.

The Warriors are the only playoff team without a rep. :nonono:

Roy over Baron is embarrassing. Baron will be so motivated for the second half of the season it's not even funny.

Well, at least Baron is going to be pissed off. Look for him to go for about 40 pts tonight.

I'd rather have him focused on real game anyways. But the logic behind choosing Roy or West over Baron is just silly.

(How much say did Byron Scott have in choosing reserves, btw?...game in New Orleans, coached by the guy who Baron had a falling out with...I smell conspiracy. )

He hasn't been chosen as coaching the West. Not yet anyway. He picks reserves just like other coaches. Anyway, as most people say, West is the player that no one talks about. Coaches know West and I'm glad he's being recognized for his accomplishments. Now maybe the other coaches may have felt Scott may get the coaching position so maybe it was them who left Baron off to help out a fellow coach. :lol:

I don't know. At the time the votes went in, the Hornets were #1 in the West. A #1 team would most likely have at least 2 players. Brandon Roy has been playing really well but I think he just should've been in the Sophomore game. I don't know. Like the TNT crew said, there will be some disappointed people out West.
