This team makes the 2010-2014 Heat look tame by comparison. Has there ever been a team in NBA history that didn't go to the Finals with this many All Stars?
Championship or super duper bust

The 1998 Lakers. Shaq, Kobe, Eddie Jones and Nick Van Exel. They got swept in the WCF by the Jazz.

Re: So the Hawks now have 4 All Stars?
The got 4 All Stars strictly due to how historically weak the East is. And even then, they need an injury to get them 4. None of those guys are All Stars in the West (or in the East during the 80's/90's)

I forgot about them, but that is a little bit different. That Utah team was stacked with Hall of Famers, but in the current East there is no such team to stand in the Hawks way. #noexcuses Originally Posted by Micku

Good for the Hawks. They are a great team and it's nice to see their players get recognition.

Re: So the Hawks now have 4 All Stars?
So.... when trying to bring down Kobe, coach/fan voted things like all stars and all defensive teams don't matter.
But when trying to build up LeBron's competitors so that everyone but his team is "Stacked" number of all stars matters all of a sudden.
Gotcha.

Earned not given. Unlike lebron who teamed up with players who reached all star status prior.

Crazy how insecure LeBron stans are. They know his 2 rings hold no weight and if he doesn't win this year then he'll never be in the top 10.
Making threads about every contender in the league and re-hashing the same unoriginal "no excuses" sentiment.
Ironically, the only player and team with no excuses is LeBron and the Cavs. His fans know it too.
Can he afford to lose again with the most stacked team in the league? This is his 5th straight year playing on the best team in a historically weak conference.

Re: So the Hawks now have 4 All Stars?
Who cares how many all stars a team has? All-NBA selections are much more indicative of how "stacked" a team is than an exhibition game decided by fans. Does OP really believe the 2011 Celtics were more stacked than the 2011 Heat?
