                                told myself I really DGAF about the all star, but 2 raptors, Isiah Thomas, and two heat players over the Cavs bring teh lulz. Ok NBA, you think Lowry, IT, and Derozen are better than KI and Love? Lets hold a fantasy draft for the rest of the season, better pick those scrubs over both. 
Alright, back to NGAF about the all star voting.

                                They reward stats, which correlates with opportunity on the team.  Kyrie doesn't deserve it, but...
If Kyrie was on Boston he would average 25+ PPG.

"C'mon" can't you see how dumb that logic is? The point is Isaiah isn't even close to the level of player that Kyrie is. It's a waste of breath to compare the two.

                        I think the only comparing anyone is doing is simply stating that based on this year's performances, one is more worthy to be an all-star, as Kyrie has missed a bit over half the year and doesn't have any sort of statistical advantage where one could say he showed more in 20 games than Thomas did over an entire season.like_that;1779225 wrote:Kyrie is having a better year than Embiid.

Of course, this is the sort of thing where I don't know why anyone would care. With his injury history, I don't know why anyone would want him playing in a meaningless exhibition, as opposed to getting a couple days to rest his body for games that actually do matter. And I think the All-Star Game will be borderline unwatchable to levels approaching the NFL Pro Bowl, since the fans voted Kobe's corpse in, so the entire night will be all the announcers slobbing his knob because it's the closest thing to a BIG EVENT he'll be part of this season before riding off into the sunset.

                        Which is partly why he's had a better year than him. What exactly are you disputing?Midstate01;1779184 wrote:Kyrie has played in like 12 games or so...

                        So your argument is that Ish Smith is a better player than KI? Not even sure we can discuss as your opinion doesn't start with one of logic. Just a dumb hottakeZWICK 4 PREZ;1779243 wrote:I'd love to hear you dispute it. I'll be waiting.
You prob wrote after the Tebow Hail mary throw that Tebow was a better QB than rapistfucker.
Or Harden is having a better season than Durrant/Leonard bc he scores more. Lot more to basketball than Stats. Can't boxscore scout.

                                I'll reiterate since  Commander is having a hard time comprehending English. 
Isiah Thomas is having a good year. Better than Kyrie Irving. That's why he's picked for all star game over him. Obviously no one would take Isiah Thomas over Kyrie Irving for their franchise , but picking for an allstar reserve, you judge who's having the better year. Which there's no debating Thomas is having a better year.
