    The only time Lee looks unstoppable is against LA, so I can see why Portland fans think Lee is the shit.

    it's a numbers game. there are 5 guards clearly ahead of curry and the team would be imbalanced with 6 guards.

    it's crazy nobody on TNT or ESPN has said anything about team balance while whining about curry deserving to go or being snubbed.

    the order announced on TNT was also interesting duncan/parker/westbrook/harden/zebo/LMA/lee. with the top 4 being unanimous or close to unanimous choices that could easily be the order of coaches vote totals, in which case LMA was ahead of Lee in the vote.

    The odd pick in the East (imo at least) is Deng.

    I'm so sick of the fucking overrated old spurs players. When will it end? I would actually take curry over Parker

    Many self-proclaimed "experts" didn't think we'd win much more than 12 games WITH Lamarcus.

    Put that in your pipe and smoke it, bitches!

    Normally I would agree but if you look Parker is having a career year.

    Biggest snub in the East is Brook Lopez. As I mentioned above I don't think Deng is All-Star worthy this year.

    I wonder if it still stings for Thunder fans that Harden would have been their third All-Star on the team.

    When Bill Simmons becomes a coach, I'll care about what he says regarding the vote of the coaches.

    Coaches devise game plans against their opponents. Their vote in terms of All-Star means a lot more than Simmons trying to troll Blazer fans yet again.

    I think it's ridiculous that NBA coaches think they know more than us fans do. How dare they put LMA on the all star team. It's not like they watch the games like we do. They're too busy doing things like diagramming plays or calling timeouts. There is no way LMA should be an all star! We fans know more! Screw those stupid coaches!

    I don't think LMA is over rated around the league. Not if you listen to players and coaches and even opposing TV announcers. But yes under rated by some home team fans. But every team in every sport has a few of those.......

    To be fair, there are some coaches that I wouldn't trust picking a team for me.

    I agree! That's why you're a commissioner on here. You know far more than any stupid coach!

    Natebishop3 to pick the next all star team!

    If Lee is so good why didn't the Chinese vote for him like they did Yao? Everyone knows Lee is a Chinese name.
