[QUOTE=donald_trump]how did westbrook not make first team. utter trash. kobe gets in every year.[/QUOTE]
Because Kobe put up better numbers and was the best player on the 3rd seed in the West. Sorry, I love Russ, but Kobe deserved 1st team over him this year.
[QUOTE=KG215]This could get interesting. This may turn into a mega argument with Clippersfan thread. Those are always interesting.[/QUOTE]
I'm going to refrain from doing that... just sad that anytime anything good happens to the Clippers they aren't deserving.
These awards have always been based on better stats+better team record. Griffin was better than Dirk in both regards so it's unfair to act like they should switch All NBA teams. It's not like Dirk got shafted... he's on the next team.
With so many holes in his game ( defense, free throws, mid-range, post-game ) he still gets a place on the 2nd All-NBA team.
Don't tell me the sky is the limit when there are footprints on the moon :bowdown:

kobe played like ass this year. he deserves the second team.
BTW anybody upset about Griffin's placing just know he's the ONLY player that didn't get a single first team vote and most of the other players on second team had double the overall votes he did. So he basically barely made second team.

Please tell me that this is a joke.

Right...Kobe sucked this year.
[B]Kobe:[/B] 27.9-5.4-4.6 on .430/.303/.845
[B]Westbrook:[/B] 23.6-4.6-5.5 on .457/.316/.823
Westbrook has a slight edge on FG% and 3P% and assists. Kobe has him by 5 points in ppg and rebounds. Sorry, I love Westbrook, but Kobe probably deserves 1st team this year over him.
I didn't realize Kobe shot just 43% from the floor, though. Wow.

Blake griffin getting the nod over other forwards is not that bad.
What really surprised me is that lebron didnt get full 1st team votes.Somebody thinks he is not worthy of 1st team.Wow.
i agree, westbrook > kobe

Probably Cleveland writers :confusedshrug:
Not bad, Dirk was better than Griffin though
[QUOTE=chazzy]Not bad, Dirk was better than Griffin though[/QUOTE]
Just curious how. Blake Griffin had better stats, better regular season record and got further in the playoffs. This year... Dirk has ZERO case.
