Cap™ Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 east: kevin love, hassan whiteside, jeff teague.. wala?!?! best record in the east - cavs, u have to put at least 2 players in, kevin love is the next best to lebron james, well, maybe kyrie, but he was injured. hassan whiteside, brought gave miami rebounding and league leading shot blocking.. hes got to be here.. jeff teague, because of there better record, but john wall is still the better player. west: marc gasol wala? he was a starter last year... but hes numbes are down from last year.. so, not surprised. well, counter-argument to that idea: the Cavs are the best in the East but it's not because they have two efficient all-stars. LeBron's efficient (though his 5 TO game tonight hurt my fantasy team) but K-Love isn't. He's underutilized as the season went on. Teague got hurt mid-season. If you follow Chuck's analysis of Whiteside, he's inconsistent as well. So yeah, Wall > Teague, Pau > Whitesite and Love. I really want IT there. And DeRozan looks like he's gonna be there too. Yeah I'm hoping Gasol gets picked. But the Grit and Grind Grizz are getting Old and Boring. And for today's game: I hope the Spurs win.

Cap™ Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Steph has 37 in 28 minutes. Seriously. And he only had one TO as opposed to four assists as five steals. Sucks to face someone over Fantasy Basketball with Steph on his team. Quote Link to comment

Cap™ Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 can we say that the first GSW-SAS game a telltale sign of things to come: that GSW would run roughshod over the West en route to back-to-back championships? I think the Spurs got taken out of their game early so they kinda lost composure. I still believe Pop could do something in a series. If they do meet in the West Finals, I'd say the Spurs win it in six Quote Link to comment
Guiness Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 When Pop announced that Tim Duncan won't play against the Warriors. I kind of felt letdown, and i was right. Pop treated this like it was a regular season game like the rest. A game to test out some matchups. One other thing i noticed is how sloppy the spurs played this game. These turnovers were self inflicted and unforced, it wasn't Spurs basketball as far as how sloppy they were turning the ball over. Anyway, they will play 3 more times this season, Another thing i noticed is that Pop even got to make a joke about the loss (referencing the Cavs firing David Blatt) after they were blown out by the Warriors. I believe Pop will have no problem in finding ways to make adjustments and how to play this Warriors team. I think he held out a lot even with certain sets. Aldridge was a glaring non factor in this game and Pop will certainly make adjustments to that. I'm sure they will see a lot in the gamefilm and how to play Green, because i think he is the key in stopping the flow of the Warriors offense. The Spurs will be fine. Another game in the season for them. Quote Link to comment
HarryPotter25 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 The starting lineups for the 2016 NBA All-Star game are voted on by the fans, but the reserves are selected by the coaches from each conference. And with the game a little more than two weeks away, we finally have a complete look at each team's roster. The official announcement came Thursday night live on TNT, so here are the reserves for each conference. The starters were announced earlier this month. Stephen Curry, Russell Westbrook, Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant and Kawhi Leonard made the cut for the West, and Dwyane Wade, Kyle Lowry, LeBron James, Paul George and Carmelo Anthony were the ones the fans selected to represent the East. As always, there were other worthy candidates. Dirk Nowitzki and Damian Lillard immediately come to mind as deserving of spots in the West, and Kyrie Irving, Kemba Walker and Pau Gasol are among those who probably had a claim to a spot on the roster in the East. But there are legitimate reasons for including some and excluding others, and it's difficult to find fault in anyone the coaches ultimately named to the rosters. With Draymond Green and Klay Thompson picked Thursday, the NBA champion Golden State Warriors have three All-Stars for the first time in 40 years. Sacramento's DeMarcus Cousins, Houston's James Harden, San Antonio's LaMarcus Aldridge, the Clippers' Chris Paul and New Orleans' Anthony Davis were also chosen for the West squad for the Feb. 14 game in Toronto. The Raptors' DeMar DeRozan will represent the home team and is joined by fellow East reserves Chicago's Jimmy Butler, Detroit's Andre Drummond, Miami's Chris Bosh, Washington's John Wall, Atlanta's Paul Millsap and Boston's Isaiah Thomas. The reserves were selected by the head coaches in each conference, who had to vote for seven players: two guards, three frontcourt players and two additional players at any position. They were not allowed to vote for players from their own team. The coaches made Green a first-time selection and picked Thompson for the second year in a row. With Curry voted a starter by fans, the Warriors have three All-Stars for the first time since Rick Barry, Phil Smith and Jamaal Wilkes in 1976. LATEST FROM THE NBA Becky Hammon makes more history, will coach in All-Star Game Size matters: NBA Skills Challenge getting a big-man makeover Draymond Green finds out he's an All-Star from mom on live TV Raja Bell calls Blake Griffin 'soft' after punching Clippers staffer Lakers' Scott should back off and ease up on the youngsters "It's definitely something I could've never imagined happening," Green said during an interview with TNT. "It's been a lifelong dream of mine to one day see that happen, but I could never imagine it happening like this." Along with Green, who leads the NBA with eight triple-doubles, Drummond and Thomas were selected by coaches for their first All-Star Game. Drummond tops the league in rebounding and double-doubles, while Thomas, the 60th and final pick in the 2011 draft, is among the NBA's top 12 in scoring and assists. On the other end, Bosh will return to his original NBA city after being chosen for his 11th consecutive All-Star Game, trailing only the Lakers' Kobe Bryant (18), Cleveland's LeBron James and Miami's Dwyane Wade (both with 12) among active players. Paul is an All-Star for the ninth straight year. West coaches passed on Lillard, who is in the NBA's top seven in scoring and assists for a Portland team that is surprisingly in playoff position, but there appeared no obvious snubs in either conference. DeRozan joins Lowry to comprise the first starting backcourt to play an All-Star Game in its home city since the Los Angeles Lakers' Jerry West and Gail Goodrich in 1972. DeRozan said it was a big moment because of how much pride he has in playing for the Raptors, who have won 10 straight games. "And now to have the All-Star Game here and have two guys participating, it doesn't get much bigger than that," DeRozan said. "It's definitely a blessing. I have to credit the coaching staff and my teammates for helping me and Kyle get to this point." Any players who have to withdraw because of injury would be replaced by NBA Commissioner Adam Silver. San Antonio's Gregg Popovich will coach the West and Cleveland's Tyronn Lue leads the East. If a starter is injured, they would select the replacement in the lineup. Quote Link to comment
Cap™ Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Again, I feel like Klay Thompson's all-star case this year is overrated. Moreover, AD got the "superstar call" (or a name recall pick) for this year's selection as Damian Lillard's producing better numbers. LMA also got a superstar call, though the Spurs own the second-best record in the league. As for the East, Pau Gasol should be there before Bosh but I can't argue much about Bosh's numbers given that he was present when the other Heat starters have taken time off due to injuries.

disasterpiece Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) I'd say Nowitzki or DeAndre over Aldridge and Lillard over Klay for the West. Pau over Millsap for the East. Edited January 30, 2016 by disasterpiece Quote Link to comment
Cap™ Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Pau over Millsap for the East. Pau MAY get this spot as Millsap injured his ankle against the Pacers Quote Link to comment
