    AD and Boogie Named All-Star Starters









    "I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."

    Yes, was just going to post that. Here's a breakdown of the voting:

    Lucky the fans alone don't have a say, although all three branches had their points of shame -- media Aldridge over Boogie? Just continues their "anybody but Boogie" narrative; players Booker over Butler??? Fans, Manu?????? Draymond over BOTH Davis and Cousins? Sigh. People be stoopid.

    On the fan side it is definitely a popularity contest. At the same time, guys like Manu, Lonzo, and Kuzma shouldn't even be on that list this year. I'm just glad that for the most part everything comes out in the wash fairly well. Because none of those top 10 from even the media or players are without glaring flaws that make you question the baseline NBA IQ of the people in the game and reporting on it.

    Everyone outside of bandwagon fans hate Draymond. That makes me just as happy as AD and Cousins being voted starters.

    Draymond is one of the most overrated players in the league.

    Players only voted Draymond into 7th place. Fans voted him over Boogie.

    Draymond was ranked 7th amongst frontcourt players via player voting for the all star game...but 3rd by the fans. I feel 3rd is too high for him...though it’s what the fans wanted I guess

    In case you don't want to follow my link, here were the voting breakdowns of the 3 groups (fans, players, media):






    No single group was without blame for some stupidity, and yet average them all together and they arguably got it right. Maybe the system will work like that.

    Anyone else think it is kinda Funny that Boogie is starting at PF and Davis is starting at C? I guess I missed when Boogie and AD swapped positions officially.

    Where does it say that? I must have missed it. They usually just go off front court and back court without positions named.

    They showed it on ESPN/FOX like that. I also have noticed while watching games on FSNO that when they pull up Boogie stats during a game it will have PF by his name.

    I'm kind of new to the NBA (followed here and there, just started paying more attention recently), but how are we the only team with 2 all star starters, yet we are struggling to make 8th place in our division?? That would scream below average coach right?

    We are the 6th seed right now...Also, we have two players avg 25-10 basically. It is not those two players fault...We have a short bench and hard to keep leads if one of those two on not on the floor at all times.

    From ESPN's power rankings this afternoon:

    Anthony Davis and DeMarcus Cousins will be the fourth power forward/center teammates to start an All-Star Game together since the NBA/ABA merger (1976-77) and the first pair since Moses Malone and Rudy Tomjanovich with the Rockets in 1979. -- Doug Clawson
