The thing about snubs is you have to say who you'd take off the team to replace with Lou or Dragic or whomever. The NBA is tough with only 12 all Stars. The other sports have way more slots. I think the rosters are fair.

Easy....

I'd take off Wall for Dragic.

Washington is a shitshow and Miami is excelling.

Lou is tougher..

I would have put George in over Towns.

But, Dame is deserving over Lou.

Lou over Jimmy B?

No.

I wanted Lou to make it, obviously.

Butler should be there.

Towns is the guy I have a problem with.

Not over Lou, the Clippers are a mess.

I would have gone George.

 

[Bolts]

Deserved it more than Klay imo.

@Mecca in these exhibitions when the Ball boys usually go off, how old are these kids? I read they're teenagers. True?

All the " Friendlies " are against Teens and don't count towards the standings.

That's why Lavar Coached.

They went for 80...lol

Vytautas defeated BC Dzukija 147-142 in the Big Baller Challenge -- a five-game series of friendly games that do not count in the standings. The team put together the series in order to get LiAngelo and LaMelo Ball playing time against other teenagers. The Ball brothers, whose father is LaVar Ball, signed with Vytautas in December.

I understand doing this for Melo but wtf does LiAngelo needs time playing against other teenagers. He should be at UCLA playing against guys 18-23. Not 15 and 16 year olds lol

I'm not sure when the 3pt shooting contestants are announced but Buddy deserves to be in it.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

I have no problem rewarding guys for winning.

But, be consistent.

You reward the Wolves with two spots. But, don't give the Heat 1?

Then you turn around and give the Wizards 2 and the Heat have a better record.

The Warriors are juggernauts.

Klay I'm fine with.

So does Ellington. Waiting to see the league disrespect the Heat again

They started announcing a few. Beal and Love are in

Kings aren't used to getting much respect either so I know the feeling, although they really don't deserve much while the Heat certainly do.

Wall has no business being selected this year IF you are going by play and team results.

The Heat deserve one for sure, there has to be a balance between just giving spots to winning players and guys who have busted their ass on bad/underwhelming teams. There's always gonna be people who should and sometimes shouldn't have made it. Lou Williams has been the main reason the Clippers are even relevant in the playoff picture, Klay has had another good year but Lou has been better and brought more value to his team this season. You could make the case for Booker too although his team isn't in the mix for a playoff spot.
