1.) You don't need the be the team's leader. 2.) He's playing like the best player on his team. 3.) He's keeping the Jazz afloat even with the injuries to Boozer/Deron/Okur/Kirilenko etc. And... http://www.nba.com/2009/allstar2009/01/22/west.reserves.0122/index.html There are only a limited number of forward spots. I highly doubt he knocks off a guard considering the West is loaded with great power forwards.
BROY...1 week avatar bet...Pau makes it then I win, Milsap makes it you win...they both do or both dont then its a push..you down?
I've even said that Gasol is more likely to make it over Millsap, I'm not stupid. I'm just a little "aggravated" because Crow thinks Millsap has no chance of beating out Gasol.
you do if you want to bump someone in gasol's position. irrelevant. gasol is is perceived as having a huge impact on the success of the best team in the league. he's virtually an automatic choice. whatever. if you'd have said millsap would get in instead of shaq or carmelo i wouldn't have bothered to respond. but you didn't.
Jazz fans. Whatever. All I did was answer your points. You said Gasol was putting up much better stats, and I answered. You said he was playing on a team with a great record, I answered. Most of your arguments apply to Millsap as well.
you didn't answer why coaches will vote specifically for millsap instead of gasol, which was your original premise and is the only thing i'm disputing.
I can acknowledge that Gasol is more likely to make it, even if I feel Millsap will make it. Still not willing to bet with DaRizzle though.
Ok now who the fuck did Bruce Bowen end up getting more votes than Ron Artest? And how did Chris Paul randomly burn Tmac off by like 400,000 votes? i thought Tmac was leading the whole time?
