<div class="quote_poster">Quoting allnet:</div><div class="quote_post">The fact you can't even name someone else better proved you are getting </div> Ahh c'mon stop twisting things,you wanted someone better so i said ,Jermaine. You seem to like players who are less talented,not much skill and offense like Big Ben and Kmart

You seem to like players who are less talented,not much skill and offense like Big Ben and Kmart</div> No,Trust asked you to name a player better to make the all-star team.We already know who the starters as forward will be.Since when does Wallace have not much skill? It takes alot of skill to defend,rebound and block shots the way he does.K-mart has skill and plenty of it.You have yet to name east forwards who deserve to make the team ahead of Martin. Jermaine doesn't count as he will be a starter.Just give it up before you embarrass yourself even more. If Martin keeps up his numbers he has now..He will make the team.If it dips alot then he might miss out.However I don't see that happening.
^ Now that's what I call owned! What we're asking from you is who'd you prefer to be in the ASG instead of K-Mart. Since you said "anyone but him". Just in case you miss this again, K-Mart will not be a starter! It would be better if you'll post something to back it up or we'll see it as just plain hating on K-Mart. When I pointed out that K-Mart has defense to brag about, I was trying to make a point when you said that he doesn't have skills. That all he can do is dunk. Just in case you don't have anyone in mind (which seems to be the case), here is the list of the most impressive Forwards in the East: http://www.nba.com/features/ballot_breakdo...t_forwards.html BTW, when you state a player, take every basis of being in the ASG into consideration.
I am a Nets fan and I think KMart deserves to go to the All-Star Game. I think O'Neal and Carter will be the starters, and the only other legitimate candidates are Abdur-Rahim and Ron Artest. Abdur-Rahim is a good player on a bad team. He doesn't play defense or do the things needed to help his team win. And his numbers are only a little better than Kenyon's, who has much better intangibles. Artest is a media darling. His plays defense very well, but so does Kenyon. His other numbers are inferior to Kenyon's. Four or five forwards may make the team. Here's my ordering: 1. O'Neal 2. Carter 3. Martin 4. Artest 5. Abdur-Rahim
I dont think Rahim going. I think they are going to take 4 forwards and 2 natural point guards(last season they only took 1, Kidd)but baron Davis is playing so well. The East will have to take 2 point guards

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting starman85:</div><div class="quote_post">I think its his attitude that he's better than he really is. </div> I think starman85 expressed the way in which it is possible to hate him.AlL his big headed-ness and moaning last year that i should of been in the ASG :what a twat. I would prefere Ron Artest in the ASG rather than Kmart.No need for 'valid points',I Would just rather Ron in the ASG and not Ken-yawn Martin.
Well i could go down that road stating his stats and all that ,but i just dont want Kmart in the ASG.Full stop.
^ Let me see you do that. Compare stats and their contribution to the team (and to the ASG just in case).
Now I know why Crossover stayed in the off-topic forum everyday Unless you know what you are talking about don't make statements like you have in this thread.We have tried to let you explain your theories about K-mart yet you havn't brought up any points to why you feel differently.
So I guess it's all set for an ASG appearance for K-Mart. I don't see anyone else bringing up an argument.
I will be very surprised if he doesn't make it.He is putting up the numbers and is a very exciting player.The only way he misses out is if the coaches decide to go with more guards.I don't see how they will snub him though.He is right behind Jermaine O'Neal in terms of votes for power forwards in the east I believe.
Ron Artest is extremly beneficial to his team,he averages the most minutes[37.9] and has a total of 355pts this year,2nd on his team with Jermaine totaling 426.He clearly is significant to the teams sucess. Averages approx a point more than Ron a game but only has a pt total of 291 and plays less minutes a game than Ron. Ron is also a better 3pt shooter ,he made 32 this year to Kenyons pityfull 8,even though Ron attempted more 3pt shots,he will bring better shooting to the ASG than Kenyon <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Now I know why Crossover stayed in the off-topic forum everyday </div> And i still dont know why you live here,spend all day here and have 23 posts a day ,,,hmmm must 'nt have much to do.

I post at different times of the day.I post from work alot of the time.Which is what most people I know do.I like to talk basketball so I Come here when I get the chance to.Which isn't all that often anymore.When I'm on I post in bunches.Nothing better to do? I suppose going to work while looking after my girlfriend is nothing huh? Not that you would know anything in that department.Don't even know why I'm even explaining this to you.It's not like you will understand anything as always.As for your name. replying to the name cross yo ova sounds like some kid who doesn't know the english language who tries to act gangsta.It is very pretty sad to think you spend so much time thinking about how many posts I have or how many I average per day.
Dude, your arguments are whack! Ron plays more minutes? [sarcasm]WOW![/sarcasm] K-Mart averages more in less minutes. It's called efficiency. He spends less time on the court, he scores more. Besides, Artest is averaging a little more than 2 mins. on the court more than K-Mart. It's not much of a difference. Ron Artest scored more in terms of total points? He's played 4 more games than K-Mart! 3-point shooting? K-Mart is averaging 37.5% from that range compared to Artest's 35.6%! What does this tell you? Artest shot more 3-balls than K-Mart. He needed to take 4.5 attempts from the 3 area per game to accomplish this. Plus tell me, would people really flock to the ASG to see Artest shoot threes? No. They'd rather see K-Mart dunk, block, steal, rebound and entertain the crowd.
I know its probably been expressed... but Im too tired to read every single arguement... Artest, Jermaine, Abdur Rahim and Vince deserve to be over KMart ... thus Kmart wont make it. Edit: Cross yo ova... what the hell is up with your signature? The middle picture isnt Marbury... that is Garnett.
Rahim deserves to go over K-mart, dont get me wont Raim scores more but his impact on his team isnt even close to what Kenyon Martin's impact on the Nets. Kenyon Martin makes plays down the stretch of ball game like a block or dunk that just totally changes a ball games momenttum. Iam sorry but Rahim just isnt that type of player. He is more of the kind of player that will have a great game but not make impact plays during the crucial parts of that game. Plus all&all the Hawks just suck. The NBA needs to shy away from putting players on the all-star game/and promoting players who teams suck.That is why the rating for the NBA have been so low since the Jordan glory days. Its cause the NBA puts/promotes players who player for horrible teams. True NBA fans know that a player is only as good as his team is. The NBA promotion of phony superstars who teams can barely win 30 games has turn off the true basketball fan. Thats why the NBa is stuck promoting teams & players by who NBA jersey sells the most at the NBA store. They are promoting to a 16-21 audience, who really dont Know about the league besides what shoe his favorite player wears. And this is all because the NBA continues to promote losing players thru things like the all-star game.
