    What the king is not an all star. This is ridiculous.

    he'll be put on the team as a reserve is my guess. hard to argue he should be on there over the five guys listed.

    Kind of shows he isn’t as popular to the masses as advertised.

    maybe the fans are sensitive to him missing half the season so far?

    Who on that list would you take off, to give his spot to LeBron?

    if he had already announced his retirement, he probably would've been voted in as a starter like kobe in his final season

    but since he hasn't, obviously he has zero case to be a starter over the guys chosen

    OH. EXCELLENT POINT COOKIE. NOT A SINGLE PERSON. Actually I wasn't even thinking about the "starting" lineup part of it. All these years he's been voted into the starting lineup? Wow! And DUH at me. And that's inspite of him being a HUGE D*** in so many's minds, that I agree with in a LOT of ways. Doesn't make me not want to see him on the floor this last (hopefully) season for the Lakers, (hopefully) healthy through the playoffs, along with (hopefully) every single important rotation person we have. If that happens I give us a Mike Tyson's chance against any team.

    Anthony Edwards by results should be the starter ahead of Curry but he’s another guy the public doesn’t think too fondly of.

    Kobe practically missed the last three years of his career and he was still voted in his last year.

    LeBron James is by far the most polarizing player I’ve ever seen who didn’t have a run in with something off the court.

    Anthony Edwards is just a piece of s*** to me. Anyone who pays off someone to never see his own kid is lower than dog s*** to me. f*** him and everything he represents.

    Yeah. I was going to say that Anthony Edward’s has a stronger gripe than LeBron. I kinda feel like he’d probably rather skip the all star game anyway. We will see if he actually plays when they make him a reserve

    the boxscore doesn't jump out but I thought that was a really good game by Lebron - the scoring was timely and kept the offense going. His one on one defense is starting to look good again as well

    I say stuff in the heat of game time when I don’t feel he’s giving top effort, but yeah I mean he’s 41, what he’s doing has never been done at this level at this stage. Definitely have to appreciate it while he’s still playing.
