Maybe just getting the promo materials ready. A lot of teams do this, heck, millions upon millions are wasted every year making the wrong "Champions" t-shirts every year and in all major sports.

I hope he gets it.

He deserves it, been playing fantastic basketball. He's playing better right now than he was last year, very much deserved if this is true.

He didn't look like much of an All-Star giving up 32 and 13 to Al Jefferson... :derbulls:

Well Hibbert will get the nod as a center in the east.
There's Chris Bosh who will get a nod just because he's on the Heat.
Lance Stephenson may also get that nod because he's on the Pacers.
There's Millsap
Wall
Lowry

I honestly think Noah deserves it. But there is competition.

I thought the Center position is gone for AS games?

For starters it is... Just saying a reserve center usually ends up being picked as there still are a few good ones in the NBA. They just don't get the votes anymore.

6 players named...still leaves a spot for Noah. :smug:

But I see your point. I'd think Derozan would get in over Lowry personally, but neither of them are shoo ins to me. Bosh, Hibbert, and Stephenson will almost certainly make it. Millsap...I guess he could, but if he gets in and Noah does't that wouldn't make much sense to me.

It would be hilariously ironic if Deng made it and Noah didn't.

Screw the NBA fans...seriously. Noah is by far the best center in the NBA right now, doing it all from passing, rebounding, and even scoring when needed. I know there are those who will totally disagree with me, and maybe it's the homer surfacing, but he is the all around package for a center. Hibbert was just blessed with a body that most men can not handle in a basketball game. When it comes to skills, he falls flat on his face when compared to Noah. But NBA fans...

"Herp derp, Pacers are good dis yur so he muz be da bess", "Herp derp, Hibbert biiigg", "Herp derp, evry 1 sez he is da bess dis year"

Fuck the all-star game.

Sure I am biased but Noah is the best over-all center in the NBA right now. It goes way beyond mere offensive statistics. It goes to the over-all impact in the game. His only slight weakness is shooting from the outside which typically isn't how people should rate centers. He is the best passer out of that position. One of the top three rebounders out of that position. And he is certainly more mobile than any other center in the league. In short he makes the players around him better.
