Too bad Kemba is shit and looks like a terrible contract to have for the next 4 years 🤔

All the shit talking you guys did about 76ers signing Tobias, and now look. Tobias is paying off and still only 28 years old while Kemba is in his 30's and breaking down rofl. Karma is a bitch my guy


bruh i was watching him play the point vs mavs yesterday, and boy, he was bricking every shot

I mean i'm not sure I agree with the term "snub" since SO many players were deserving this year....

But Harris was definitely worthy of an All-Star spot. 21/8/3 shooting 52/42/90 to go along with almost 1 steal and 1 block per game on the #1 seed in the conference.

He has been balling out under Doc as usual, there's no doubt about that.



edit: also my post (post #2) about snubs was a direct copy and paste from Shams twitter. Those weren't my words.

So much Simmons hate from casuals on sports center facebook page and shit, it's comical. They see 16 PPG and say hEs nOT aN aLL sTaR gUyZ

Doc said it best, it's great that COACHES (and not the fans) vote for the All-Star reserves and NBA COACHES actually understand the all-around impact players have.

Idk, Cp3 made it and I'm not mad because its sometimes a lifetime accomplishment but if anything Brandon Ingram would have took that spot.. Love Booker but BI had a better season.. Pelicans just can't find a way to win... Derozan was not a snub.. He would be behind BI and Booker.


Wrong and extremely poor taken.
There is no way the Pelicans could have two all-stars not even being apart of the play-in bracket. This is the all-star game but history has still gave the nod to winning over losing.(Unless you're luka doncic.)
BI wasnt an all-star last year and he isn't this year putting up basically identical numbers.

Booker should've been in over CP3. It's not close.

How is it not even close?

CP3:
16.6 PPG
8.5 AST
4.5 REB
1.3 STL
2.3 TOV
48.5% FG
40.0% 3PT
97.2% FT

Booker:
24.7 PPG
4.3 AST
3.8 REB
0.8 STL
3.5 TOV
50.1% FG
38.1% 3PT
84.8% FT

Real Plus-Minus
CP3: 2.95
Booker: 0.92


Booker is deserving no doubt, but CP3 gets the nod over him. He has been better all-around, scoring at an efficient rate while being top 5 in the league in assists per game, with twice as many assists as Booker yet far fewer turnovers too.

CP3's 8.5 assists to just 2.3 turnovers per game is crazy good. Everyone else in the top 5 in assists all average 4+ turnovers per game.

I'm happy to see the coaches understand and put emphasis on all areas of the game of basketball, not just the PPG category that casuals love so much.
