[playmaker7]

Lets go Kobe, Odom, and Walton. Im gonna vote for Walton!

 

[MapleLeaf]

WAY TO EARLY

But Jho and Dirk should represent the Mavs.

 

[DJT]

Luis Scola on the ballot?!?!?! Also Nene....these 2 really should not be on here.

 

[Whisper]

As always... only about SIX games into the season. WAY too early to even be talking about the ASG.

 

[Pugz]

Luis Scola on the ballot?!?!?! Also Nene....these 2 really should not be on here.

McDyess is on there too.
Them 3 shouldn't be on there.

 

[Mexi]

Everybody vote for Chris Paul dammit!!

 

[Pugz]

Everybody vote for Chris Paul dammit!!

I am!

 

[Mexi]

We, and by we i mean NBA fans, should all pull an NHL fan from last year and all vote Mike Dunleavy

remember last year everybody voted for some guy who sucked to play in the NHL ASG?
I dont think he played though, but still

ROLF^^

Mike Dunleavy sucks <Censored>. I don't care that hes scoring 18 ppg. So is Azubuike... <_<

This is way too early. To me, it doesn't even feel like the season started. Especially since my team is winless. If Baron Davis does not make it this year, WOW. I hope J-Rich makes his first one too.

Seattle Times -
When told he was not among the 24 Western Conference forwards chosen for the All-Star ballot, Sonics forward Chris Wilcox looked as if someone had sucker-punched him in the stomach.

"You kidding me?" he said. "It's crazy. I don't know what to say. I'm not upset. Well, I guess maybe I'm a little upset. But more than anything, I'm just shocked that I wouldn't be on the ballot. I thought at least I would get a chance this year.

"You mean to tell me there's 24 other forwards in the West that are better than me. Man, that's crazy."

I do think Chris Wilcox deserves to be on the ballot.

At the time the guy who got voted was one of the best in the NHL.(for a certain amoutn of games)

 

[DJT]

Dunleavy is a lot better than any of you guys will ever be. Dunleavy is a good player do you watch him play ever????

 

[MapleLeaf]

Devin Harris not even on the ballot?

 

[DJT]

Devin Harris not even on the ballot?

If Monta Ellis is on ther Harris should certainly be.

Actually, they voted for I believe Rory Fitzpatrick... He's pretty much the talent equivalent of a... Michael Doleac. He's been on as many teams as a Kenny Lofton.

 

[Pugz]

Dunleavy is a lot better than any of you guys will ever be. Dunleavy is a good player do you watch him play ever????

He is good.
I like him.
He's just got a bad contract so people just think he's not worth it.

 

[DJT]

Well being a sucky player and being a player not worth your contract are 2 very different things.

Tell that to eveyone elese.

 

[DJT]

Tell that to eveyone elese.

Yea I am....but they aren't hear to read it.
