    He doesn't dribble for 20 seconds when CP3 is on the floor. Chris Paul has a way way of making a lot of players look like all stars. CP3 actually dribbles for about 15 second and then hits an open man. The clipper games I have been too this year Crawford did a lot of "catch and shoot" to go along with his Iso. I don't care what is shooting percentage is, he has hit a lot of big shots for them. Coming off the bench outside shooters are always going to be inconsistent. Clipper fans love him for good reason.

    I'll tell you what I don't understand: Why do "people" think "people" think Jamal Crawford should've made the all-star team.

    Crawford is the #2 scorer on a team that's 20 wins over .500. He's 3rd in the league in 4th quarter scoring. He's scoring 1 less point per game than all star Luol Deng, but in 10 less minutes per game. His 3pt shooting is fine at .377, but if a .422 FG pct should disqualify him, then what about all star Joakim Noah and his .457 at the C position?

    His 16.6 PER not good enough? It's better than Deng's 15.2. Deng's WS/48 is .119, while Crawford's is .116.

    Deng is a 2 time all star.

    Why are you comparing him to Deng? Different positions and different conferences.. This year, in the western conference, Crawford has no business being in the all star conversation.
