[Anthony15]

Yes, I'm so glad that KG didn't make it!!!

Is it because he has you and your sorry franchise's number?

sure....WTF r u talkin about?

I'm saying Denver sucks.

Paul Pierce.. needs to be on there... same with KG

[KIG1]

Pierce got snubbed. KG didn't desrve it, imo. The Wolves lost too many games.

[J@3]

Awell, someone's got to miss out.

[Fitzy]

vince carter got snobbed to!

[KIG1]

vince carter got snobbed to!

He was good, but this year there was too many good players. Tim Duncan shouldn't be on any of the teams! Even if he struggled with foot problems he doesn't deserve to earn a spot.

[magius]

the only reason people think tim duncan shouldn't be on the all star team is because they've grown accustomed to his greatness. Even though he had an off year he still led his team to the best record in the west, he still deserves to be an all star no question about it. Chauncy is far less of a factor to the pistons than duncan to the spurs yet no ones complaining about him. Imagine the star player of the best team in the west not being selected as an all star. That's idiotic. imo he should be first team over shaq.

[Tuomas]

Gilbert Arenas should have been in 2nd team at least... otherwise I like those picks

Wolves lost exactly the same amount of games as Celtics so I don't see how Pierce got snubbed and KG didn't. KG beats Pierce in all categories apart from ppg, apg and 3pt%.

How did Duncan more votes than Marion I don't know, and how he got any first team votes at all is ridiculous, nearly as ridiculous as 'Sheed getting a first team vote. I mean who the fuck in their right mind would give 'Sheed a first vote over the following:
- Lebron
- Dirk
- Brand
- Melo
- Marion
- KG
- Duncan
- JO
- Gasol
- and probably more...

[Fitzy]

i think tim duncan should have made it, he put up good numbers towards the end of the season but maybe he should have been in the third team

[Andrew]

One could argue KG and Pierce were snubbed and a couple of players could change places but overall they're not bad selections.

[zmac]

Yeah fairly good selections, I would only change TD for KG.

[Riot]

Garnett got ROBBED!

[Donatello]

I am simply amazed at Shaq getting first team. What the bloody hell is that about?

IT DOES NOT MATTER WHICH TEAMS WON GAMES. It's about individual performances. Garnett should have beaten Duncan in this vote.

[Mayerhendrix]

Not many other centers played well or performed well for their teams.

Also it might be out of respect that Shaq's still arguably the best center in the league at his age.

THANK GOD YOU'RE NOT VOTING. td should and did beat kg in this vote.... and he should've been listed at c and beat shaq too.

How can you tell me that Duncan deserved it over Garnett? Please, do not use the team standings agrument because if you watched the Spurs this season you would know that TONY PARKER carried the team and not Tim Duncan. In the playoffs, Duncan has been a beast but in the regular season Duncan was not. Parker carried that team this season with his outstanding play. Garnett is better than Duncan in every single category besides blocks per game. How can you tell me that Duncan had the better regular season than Garnett?

*NOTE* Bold means better statistically than the other player compared.

Shit the standings doesn't say so! Just deal that T-Puppies suck!

Hey Riot, since when was the game of basketball a game of numbers. You wanna make a case for a player based on numbers then lets talk about baseball. Hoops is far more complicated that numbers. I mean, Stephon Marbary has been good for about 22/8 every year, so do you think he is going to make the Hall of Fame? No, because he is a loser. Do you think Bruce Bowen is a worthless piece of crap because his numbers suck? What about Ben Wallace? Aside from rebounds, steals, and blocks, he sucks donkey balls. There is no stat for how good someone's offball and help defense is. There is no stat for how good of a leader someone is or how many double teams they draw to open up wide open drives for guys like Tony Parker and Manu Ginobli. Duncan is what all NBA players should strive to be.

Garnett has a good attitude and helps his community.

Ben Wallace is a center, I believe their role is to rebound, steal, and block.

[magius]

tony fucking parker? are you kidding me? only the casual fan would believe tony parker led this team. I find it funny how people argue, for instance, that nash shouldn't be mvp because he doesn't influence the game defensively, and then completely fail to recognize the players that do. This spur team is and never will be a great defensive team because of tony parker. Ask anyone.... ANYONE..... what the defining characteristic of the san antonio spurs is.... yeah, thats right, defense. I fail to realize how tony parker can ever be more important to the spur team than td when he is not even the third most important keg of their signature. bruce bowen? as shown by the past td does just well without him. td makes this team work, to say tony parker has even close to the impact on the spurs that td has is just plain ridiculous. offensively.... parker gives you .3 more points than td on an off year. whoopie-fucking-doo-da. nor is he an outstanding playmaker. If you think the spurs are the team they are because of tony parker, I can't help you. If you can say that then I can say the only reason kg ever made it out of the first round is sam cassell; yeah thats right, sam cassell was the mvp of that team.

please don't give me the "please don't give me the team standings argument," because it is a valid one.... you trying to shoot it down by acknowledging it doesn't change that fact. It would be like me saying please don't look at kg' statistics, obviously he'd have better ones because he has the oppurtunity to dominate the ball far more than td. I take them hand in hand, and I still believe that td is superior. if team success doesn't matter why of the past 26 mvp's have 16 of them been from the #1 overall team in the nba, 5 from the #1 overall team its in conference - #2 overall, and 4 from the #2 team in its conference? in fact the only players to NOT come from one of the top 2 teams in the nba in the past 26 years is mj and nash (this year).... and they were both still on top teams. I guess thats all just coincidence, huh? in fact, other than tmac that one year, I fail to remember the last player who didn't make the playoffs who made one of the top 2 teams. that's hardly good company.

kg deserves it over td? don't make me laugh. the only place kg deserves to be is on the third team along with all the other rejects who didn't make the playoffs.

[Riot]

The All-NBA Teams are for the best PLAYERS who had the BEST SEASON. Duncan is on a better team but Garnett had the better individual year.

[Christopherson]

Well Riot, it seems we disagree on that. I respect your opinion that Garnett had the better year, but I for one beg to differ. I believe that Duncan had a better year.


And NJNetsFan a center's role is far more than just rebounds blocks and steals, that is just what Ben Wallace does. What about a guy like Shaq who used to average about 30 points a game? Or Hakeem, or Robinson, or Ewing, or almost any other great center. To be All-NBA it helps to do more than just rebound, score, and cause turnovers. Ben Wallace is a liability at the offensive end. Just look at the last game against the Cav's, it was Wallace's 0-7 from the FT line that lost the game.

[Riot]

Garnett put up some great stats, his team wasn't in the playoffs but what do you expect when you have a rookie head coach and no talent? Marko Jaric is too slow and too stupid to be a starting point guard, McCants struggled early on, Wally couldn't get his own shot and the team has no inside presence besides Garnett. Not to discredit Tim Duncan but he did not have a very good year. He was obviously bothered by that foot injury all season long.

The Spurs aren't better than the Wolves because of Duncan, they are better because they have the best coaching staff in the league along with the deepest team in the league.
