    Those are pretty big jumps, as expected.

    So what you're saying is his more efficient shooting should have been freshly in the minds of coaches voting for an all star spot

    No, I'm saying exactly what I said. He started out the season very inefficiently and that's largely the perception of his year so far by non-homers. Forcing up a lot of missed shots doesn't impress most people. It's no coincidence that it's only recently the Dame/CJ back court is getting national press as an elite scoring combo. It was an elite chucker combo early and very easy to dismiss.

    Portland's record isn't good, it isn't even average. It's below average... good grief you can draw out the ridiculous.

    btw...who are these "experts" you're referring to and why did you put quotes around the word? You quoted me, but I never said that word. If you're referring to the media people I mentioned, I didn't identify them so how in the world can you know what they predicted record wise in the preseason? On top of all that, whatever someone may or may not have predicted for Portland record wise has absolutely nothing to do with who the coaches select for the AS game. I only brought up my personal experience because of your claim that "virtually everyone is saying that LMA shouldn't have made the team and the majority of the people are saying that Dame". Lots of people were saying LA was going to make the team and Dame wouldn't for the reasons spelled out.

    Accept reality & move on

    I'm talking about the info that you were relaying. Stop being so sensitive. Good grief.
