The overrating of Steph Curry happened again. He's starting in the All Star game over Westbrook

14:45- 16:40


I agree with Chuck. This dude Westbrook is averaging a Triple Double for the season, first since Oscar Robertson and leading his team to a winning record when the biggest star bolted and left, and he's not even starting?

He was leading in votes the entire time. Westbrook was presumed to get the choice from the media and players the entire time. His best bet was becoming second in fan votes which would've fukked over Harden

it'sa tough call. You can't say Steph is not deserving of starting. He's a 2 time reigning MVP. And when KD left, Russ was gonna put up crazy numbers just because of his playing style.

A travesty

Is the All Star game about career resume or how good they have been this CURRENT season?

well when the fans are voting for the starters, popularity obviously plays a role.

But even aside from that, of course Steph isn't gonna put up the same #'s as last year b/c KD is taking shots.....likewise Russ is gonna put up better #'s bc KD is gone.

If I was sorting out the roster, I vote Steph @ PG, Russ @ SG, Harden @ SF.

The All-Star game is generally about popularity. I don't get how you came to the conclusion that he's "overrated" because he's more popular than Westbrook.

The all star game is about the fans. It's been like this forever. Why y'all acting like this is new.

You got 2 guys threatening history and 1 guy that is immensely popular on a 34-6 team and only 2 spots. Someone was gonna get left out . This ain't Yao starting over Shaq. Now one thing they can do is introduce more flexibility in regards to positions...already got rid of centers.

So you'll be ok with Zaza Pachulia, who got 1.5 million votes, be the starting center in the West?

I wouldnt give a shyt, Kyle Korver was an all star 2 years ago. Did the league die? Its a meaningless exhibition

Very popular with the feggits. I'm not shocked that you're a fan.

I bet during the Magic, MJ and Kobe tribute games you balled your face up mad lol. The sanctity of the all star game

You still gonna keep up this act if the Warriors win the title this season or will you go back to shyttin on LeBron?

He should be starting. But this game is not important enough to blow a gasket over. Westbrook will still be in the game, and he'll still likely try going for the most points in ASG history.
