Tough omissions:

Dirk Nowitzki - came into the season out-of-shape and isn't playing well/often
Danilo Gallinari - best player on the team with the second best record in the West (also out-playing Dirk right now)
Luol Deng - probably would have been on my list over D-Will and Hibbert this year if he had stayed healthy.
Steve Nash
Brandon Jennings
Danny Granger
Kyrie Irving
Pau Gasol - hasn't had as strong of a year so far. I thought about putting him over *** and his brother but just couldn't.
Paul Millsap
Al Jefferson
Kyle Lowry
Amare Stoudemire

I can't put Steve Nash over Tony Parker. That guy has been carrying the Spurs all season long. Dirk just hasn't been an all-star caliber player this year.

Luol Deng I can halfway accept. Joakim Noah- complete homer pick. Roy Hibbert has played much better.

Kinds off topic but where do you rate Love? He's been a beast for two seasons now

You should watch what Steve Nash did last night.And maybe it is the last chance for such a great player to be in an all star game.They should give it to him.Same thing for Dirk Nowitzki.He won the championship last year.It is impossible not to have last years champion in the all star game.

The Bulls with Deng:Opponents score 85ppg,
The Bulls without Deng:Opponents score 95ppg.
Thats why this player should be in the all star game.Because his impact on his team is way too big.Noah shouldn't be there but there is not someone else to be there that deserves it more.Maybe Chandler but definitely not Hibbert.He has the talent to be an all star for many years but not this year.

 

[Cloud 9]

Just off the top of my head:
Marc Gasol
Andre Igoudala
Russell Westbrook
Lamarcus Aldridge
Kevin Love
Danilo Gallinari
Rajon Rondo
Deron Williams

Not hibbert? Are you kidding? I might be a Pacers fan but Roy has earned it, even if there was stiffer competition. He has averaged nearly a double double and dominates in the post. Now before I get shot, I'm headed back to the Whitesox board.

I love Hibbert.But I am not seeing him being an all star this year.

It has to be Hibbert he is the only deserving C out there. If Hibbert doesnt get in there is something wrong with the coaches.


Brandon Jennings should get in I hate his game. But without the Bucks they maybe dont have 5 wins right now he has put that team on his back and led them very well.

Deng if healthy should get consideration but I dont know how long he will be healthy for with that injury. His wrist needs surgery IMO. Didn't he have to have surgery when he had the same injury??

Have you watched Dirk this year?? He has looked like a Dleaguer he has been awful there is no way he should be an all star. He just needs to worry about getting healthy and get his game back by playoff time.


Chandler hasnt been good this year he doesnt deserve it. Andrea B. is the only C worthy of an allstar bid besides Hibbert but he isnt a C he is more a PF.

also Kyle Lowry better get the bid over Nash he has been great this season

He did, but he was able to finish the season. He won't have surgery until after the season this year either.

 

[Uman85]

Dirk partied too hard in the off-season.

 

[zack54attack]

Kyle Lowry def deserves to be an All-Star

Too many players out West deserve it more.

 

[bleacherbum54]

Really anyone picking Noah over any decent C is biased this year. Noah has been out of shape and pretty bad all year (he is starting to get in shape but he has not been good at all) C.

But there are not so many decent Cs.Otherwise Noah wouldn't be mentioned at all.

But you see Noah?? Hellen Keller would be able to see that there are much better options and players this year than Noah he has been awful all season.

Pau Gasol has the numbers but I would take Marcin Gortat or Marc Gasol over him Gasol is the better player on the better team so I would take M Gasol.
