    Wes should back out. LA should claim he can't play because of injury. Screw em.

    Edit, wait, WTF? I didn't read about Cousins. That is messed up! Maybe Lillard asked out though?

    That would be sweet. How much stronger would their "us against the world" mentality be if they did that.

    That said, I don't think Wes willingly gives up his chance to participate in all-star weekend.

    I guess I'm in the minority when I say who cares? It's a damn exhibition for sponsors. So what if Dame got snubbed? He gets rest. That's more important in the long run than some all star bid.

    Blazers fan should disrupt the fucking hashtag the NBA uses. Just tweet pics of Lillard all game.

    I'd love it if Matthews wore a Lillard jersey during the 3 point contest.

    There is 0% chance I'm watching the game or any of the activities, even the ones the Blazers are in.

    Not gonna happen. But LA dropped the ball last night. He didn't show any outrage whatsoever and he had the stage .

    The players care. It's as if your peers don't recognize or acknowledge you.

    The refs care too. Anyone who claims there isn't a bias is simply naive or blind.

    I just want to thank the coaches who feel I wasn't good enough, the fans that didn't think I was good enough , and Adam Silver also for not thinking I was good enough. This isn't unfamiliar territory for me , it's actually what my life has been inspired by. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed or that I don't feel disrespected but it's not too much to handle. Not the first or last guy to be snubbed. "You should have been there" isn't good enough for me. But anyway, The reason I'm in these shoes is because I've always use the hand I was dealt to my advantage... A wise man once told me... " it ain't always gone be peaches and cream but somebody has to pay for the reason it's not ... One way or another " ... #ImThankful#Real#NonAllStar#RipCity#YellowTape
