    Both Lee and Curry do.

    EDIT: Take this with a grain of salt. No one else is reporting this, and the announcement is officially supposed to be made tomorrow.

    Seriously, I'm baffled by the Ibaka selection. I don't care as much that LA didn't make it. I care more that Ibaka did. WTF

    Lee made it over Aldridge, but im not upset with that even though I thought I would be two Weeks ago.

    ibaka baffles me.

    Six guards made the team, which was pointed out hasnt happened in a long time. Well deserved for curry

    Almost always leaked ahead of time. I know we knew that LMA made it last year before the announcement.

    Curry definitely deserves it. So does Lee. I was really impressed seeing the defense Curry was using when we played him. The dude is legit man! As for Lee... The guy is consistent and should be in the all-star game. I can't wait for the next time Golden State and Portland play. I suspect Aldridge will have a chip on his shoulder for that game.

    I would have been happier if Z-Bo made it over Aldridge

    So basically, although he plays for Houston, the cities of LA and OKC almost accounted for half the team (all 5 starters and Harden).

    Another way to look at it, the state of California accounted for half the team.

    I'm not upset he didn't make the team, he didn't earn it. just another year where the only thing worth watching is the Rookie game.

    Or, you could just say that the entire West all-star team is either from CA, TX, or OKC
