2010 All Star Reserves - leaked

Ah it clearly does. Thats why Kobe Bryant is the best player in the NBA. He gets it done on both sides of the floor.

My point is that if your going to say that Lee doesn't deserve an All-Star position, then players like Horford, Randolph and Howard don't deserve selection either. Howard is a terrible defender....Sure he might block shots but he gets into severe foul trouble early on in ball games and has to sit till the 2nd half.Seen it heaps of times.

David Lee is a 6"9 undersized player who is filling the Center position for the Knicks playing 36 mins a night.
He battles night in night out against players who have at least 3 inches on him e.g. Howard, Garnett

And TR sums it up, defence is non existant in an All-Star game.
Players like Arenas, Nash and Mo Williams had all been previous selections. Read an article the other day that Arenas was one of the worst defenders in the NBA under some new statistic.

Hell, to top it off, Mehmet Okur was an all-star. He is a terrible defender, much worse than Lee

I wasn't pointing out that anyone in this thread supported Bogut been an all star..Your all onto it. Just a reaction to others who feel he should be an all-star as mentioned in various other threads

Those people that think Bogut should be in there...What about Lee?!

The guy is carrying the knicks, averaging 19.4 points and 11.4 rebounds, to go with 3.4 assists. Shooting 55 % from the field and 78.5 5 from FT line.
He is top 10 in:
-Total Rebounds (4th)
-Rebounds per game (5th)
-Defensive rebounds (2nd)
-Double-Doubles (6th)
-Efficiency Ranking (5th)
-Total Efficiency Points (4th)
-Field Goal Pecentage (7th)

I would want that guy in my side, especially since he isn't on a big contract (7mil per year)
I think its a joke that he isn't in the team..He is having a better year than Garnett, Hoford, and I would say even Howard.
The guy can play..Its a shame that the system allows for fan voting..Of course guys like Garnett and Howard are going to get votes because they are the franchise players. Its not right.
If Lebron comes to NY, him and Lee to go along with Harrington will be tough to stop

Put Josh Smith in over Al horford.

Since there's no Vinsanity this time round, you need the dunker with the mad hops.

Horford clearly got in on the old 'he's on a good team' argument. IMO Bogut, Perkins and Lee all do more for their teams than Horford does. Hell, at least those other guys can play offence, which is what the All Star game is all about!

There's always going to be "snubs" since after the initial 5 that are fan picked, you are often going to have at least one player on each team in both conferences that is technically worthy of being an all star, and as Jeff Van Gundy says, if you're not on a .500+ team, you shouldn't be an allstar.
