    I don't want that injury replacement. Get the guy some rest. Take a vacay to Hawaii, Dame.

    I know some people disagree, but picking All-Stars based on wins is absurd. It's an event of star players around the league to entertain the fans. It's not a reward for Joe Blow role-player from one of the best teams in the league. In what other league do they do this?

    I don't have any complaints about Curry/Klay/Draymond. Those three players are exceptional. They are stars. There's a reason why that team is so good and it's because those three are among the very best at their positions.

    Aldridge, currently, is not among the best in the league at his position.

    Wow, Dame is a top 10 player in the west easily. Fuck the coaches.

    Most of all fuck the fans.

    At the end of the year I'll be surprised if he's not 2nd team All-NBA.

    One is 6th in the league in scoring. The other is 46th. Good decision.

    Not only should Lillard be in over Aldridge, he should be in over Anthony Davis too.

    Yeeah. And the fact that he's in the All-Star game would be no consolation, because what REALLY matters is what us neckbeards think of him.

    CP3 is still better (both practically and statistically) than Dame.

    Here is the top 10 in the league in scoring (if the lists are right - here are the All-Stars)

    1. Curry - All-Star
    2. Harden - All-Star
    3. Cousins - All-Star
    4. Kevin Durant - All-Star
    5. LeBron - All-Star
    6. Lillard - SNUBBED
    7. Westbrook - All-Star
    8. PG13 - All-Star
    9. DeRozan - All-Star
    10. Davis - All-Star

    Okay how about top 20?

    11. Butler - All-Star
    12. Isaiah Thomas - All-Star
    13. Carmelo - All-Star
    14. Lowry - All-Star
    15. Klay - All-Star
    16. Wiggins - No
    17. CJ - No
    18. Kemba - No
    19. Hayward - No
    20. Kawhi - All-Star

    So out of the top 15 scorers in the league, Dame is THE ONLY NON ALL-STAR PLAYER.

    Apparently average stats on a good team. Oh and your coach coaching the team.

    What shocks me is Anthony Davis makes it when his team took a huge step back this year and his stats are less than Dame's. Lets not even mention Dame's team was projected to be a bottom 5 team..

    On the bright side Toronto in February can suck. I used to cover it for work. I love the city, just not in the winter. Dame you get a full week off. Go somewhere warm!
