    I'm guessing something like 4pm?

    How many people think Dame makes it?

    I think dame makes it. All the sudden he gets foul calls like a normal star and he leads us to a championship averaging 20 FTA/G

    Unless karma really is a hoax

    He's in a slump, but the Spurs have lost 3 in a row as well, so who knows.

    It more or less comes down to 2 spots (at the most) for Lillard, Paul, & Parker. If a lot of coaches vote for Paul despite his injury situation Lillard will likely be the odd man out.

    That's why I'm confident. I think coaches are smarter than fans and pass on Paul due to injury. I wouldn't be surprised if I'm wrong however, especially if emperor stern gets involved.

    Re: When do they announce the reserves?

    i don't think dame makes it unless it as an injury replacement. just not quite his time yet and a very deep conference. I love the idea of eliminating conferences for the AS game and have the top two vote getters pick teams from a group of 28 players chosen by the coaches. Still allows the fans to have some say but lessens their opportunities to vote in people undeserving of the spot.

    I think he would have made it, but this slump over the last five or six games might have killed it.

    Re: When do they announce the reserves?

    Even as an injury replacement Lillard will likely be up against Cousins or Anthony Davis, as well as Dragic, Conley etc., and the commish (Stern/Silver) would be much more likely to ignore team record and position than the coaches collectively would be.

    Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA 26s
    San Antonio's Tony Parker has been selected to the Western Conference All-Star reserves, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.

    Hope Silver likes Lillard a lot

    Casey Holdahl ‏@CHold 11s Every year the NBA makes a big deal of telling teams to wait until the announcement on TNT. And every year, it still gets out. It ain't us.
