per 36 numbers in first two games of the playoffs:

Lillard: 14 points and 2 assists on 27% fg.

The real all star: 23 points and 5 assists on 55% fg WHILE HURT and STILL playing lockdown D.

Monta should have made it. Lost all respect for Lillard. Didn't deserve it in the West, he was playing PITIFUL defense. Let Kyrie drop 55 on him right before the coaches picked the All Stars.

Also, Lillard flat out did not deserve to make the ASG over Dragic last year. That was a joke.

Conley is underrated. Plays great defense on most PGs. However, he is no match for my man Westbrook.

Rooting for him against Lillard though, as Conley is a lot more likeable even though there was no bigger hype moment last playoffs than Lillard's series ender against the Rockets.

Stop. Most people were calling Lillard the biggest snub even before he made twitter posting. He would have still been selected alternate without it.

2014 was the year people were in love with Lillard. 2015 is the year they hate him. Hilarious

That's because people are stupid as hell and we're only going off of name recognition and hype. There is no reason why he should have made it ahead of Monta. None.

Yup, and Monta was flat out BALLIN the first half of the year. If Lillard didn't throw a tantrum then he probably would have made it.

Opposing PGs big performances against Lillard this year:

Kyrie - 55 4 5

Westbrook - 40 13 11
36 11 7
40 10 6 (Lillard had 40 6 11 and the W)

Curry - 45 2 10
33 2 10

CP3 - 36 6 12
41 5 17

Is Lillard that bad of a defender or is it more of the team defense? I havn't seen too many of his games just noticed these eye popping numbers guys are dropping on him.

Elites like those I listed seem to be more than he can handle defensively often blowing by collapsing the D or scoring.

Ok, let's bring it up then.


Montas defense is 10 times better than Lillards.

Lillard didn't deserve it this year, but he absolutely deserved it last year over Dragic.

Loved him in his rookie year and that duel he had with Kobe won a lot of hearts too.

That 15 minutes runs up quick, though. I think it started with Team USA snub. Mason Plumlee made it over him.

I think it's a mixture of that, people expecting more from him in his second season and the fact that Curry, Kyrie, Westbrook and CP3 have had great seasons.

Like my post earlier. He couldn't hold his own against the top tier PGs routinely being outplayed.

On pace to have the worst playoff series of any all-star in NBA history.

Is Lillard Damon Stoudamire 2?
