I think rookies get a bit discriminated against at all star. But usually the excuse is that their team sucks. In this case.....?

Yeah let's add a rookie "point guard" that can't shoot to the all star game.







That role has already been filled by Kyle Lowry!!!!

For Dragic, yeah. Kemba is having a better season than Simmons by PER, WS, RPM. And Simmons will get plenty of nods.

Yes. Two all stars is a lot for that performance but they are a good team. They aren't many games away from a much higher seed..

When I die, I hope they say I made the eSports industry a better place than I made millions of dollars.
Joe Johnson is just a guy I would assume will play forever. I'd never stat check him. I'd just assume he's gonna check in on some contender and do some old man bullshit and score like 15 points in 10 minutes out of nowhere after not even registering a pulse in like the previous month.

Is he still considered a good defender? Because that's a nice pickup for them if so.


I'd be completely fine with the Rockets winning the title this year, if it can't be the Raptors (it almost assuredly won't be)

Wright was considered good at defense? I always thought of him as average at best on D but ultra efficient on offense because he just catches lobs/doesn't take stupid shots. To be fair I haven't watched him play much since he left the Mavs but I also think he was injured most of the time.
Him and Grandpa ISO Joe are good additions to Houston's bench. Really hope we get a good Houston Warriors series this year.
