2012 NBA All-Star Snubs: Did Atlanta Hawks' Josh Smith Deserve a Spot? | Bleacher Report

With all the hype around him lately, he's got a shot. He's a feel-good, underdog story and you can bet that the press loves a good ole' underdog story. He's certainly one of the bright spots on that Knicks team. Linsanity!

Kung ma stretch pa lang to center position si J-Smoove, I'd pick him in a heartbeat over Roy Hibbert.. Kapila na jud tawn ni sya na-snub.


=============================


Jeremy Lin ----- if ingon ani na unta iyang dinuwaan before the All-Star balloting ended, sigurado he's one of the top vote getters & would've been a starting guard instead of Rose or Wade.. Billions of Chinese/Asian votes ftw!!

Okay ra man na bro. Entitled man jud ta sa ato mga opinions.

Ang ako lang pud, kung consistency man lang gani ang basehan, mas worth it unta i-include si Marcin Gortat instead ni Nowitzki. It's arguable pero ako lang pud na hinuon.

Here's Josh Smith's opinion about getting snubbed ...

ORLANDO — Hawks forward Josh Smith looks at the reserves voted to the Eastern Conference All-Star team and figures there must be behind-the-scenes forces that explain why some of the players made the team ahead of him.

“You’ve got to factor in there is a lot of politics involved in the All-Star selection,” Smith said Friday. “Once you get that it’s really about politics, then nothing really surprises you. I call it ‘Nothing But Associates,’ NBA. It’s all who you know.”

Coaches vote for the All-Star reserves, so there is the potential for lobbying by fellow coaches, other team personnel, and player agents. For example, Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle reportedly lobbied coaches to vote for forward Dirk Nowitzki, who was selected for the team even after he had said he didn’t deserve it.

Smith said “I guess I don’t know the right people” and didn’t have people lobbying on his behalf.

“I can’t really point a finger and blame anybody because, at the end of the day, when you leave it up to certain people that still have ties to their agents, [and] players in this game today probably [are] just putting in a bid over the phone, or however they do it,” he said. “You have to factor that in.”

Don't take the All-Star too seriously, you know its's a joke when you got Melo as a starter. Though I can't blame the casual fans for voting him; they see Melo guesting in TV shows here in America and he hangs out with LBJ, Wade and CP3 plus his wife is reportedly 'famous" for something like.............................hhhmmmmmmmm...........

sobra pa sa JOKE nga na STARTER c MELO.
