this news broke before the Knicks/Celtics game.
congrats to the Man Handler, well deserved!
a shame Junior Swish did not get the call, but you gotta admit Kyrie Irving and Jew Holiday deserved it this year more than JR. there's just so many spots for excellent players, it's too bad the starting all-stars are determined by fans who are star-obsessed with most ballot stuffers voting for their favorites, instead of who actually deserves to be an all-star. it's the reserves, who are voted on by coaches, that truly represent the rest of the best players in the league. no disrespect to Melo, Kobeef, LeBone, etc., but guys like Garnett? not deserving!
i think JR's NOT getting the nod may have affected his game last night, his shot was definitely off (other than late game clutch shot).
ce la vie, props to Melo and Chandler.
