Houston’s Not The Only Problem We Have, As We Indeed Have A Big Snub From OAK-Town.
Earlier tonight, we finally got the results of who each coach from around the league would pick to participate in this year’s All-Star game. Last week we were shown the starters which Miami Heat stars LeBron James and Dwyane Wade made their 9th all-star appearance with Kevin Garnett grabbing his 15th to highlight the east.
In the West, Kobe Bryant nabbed his 15 straight appearance with teammate Dwight Howard voted in by fan vote and their in-house rivals Chris Paul and Blake Griffin getting tap for starting duties. For the Western reserves, James Harden of the all-star game hometown Houston Rockets will be making his first ever appearance with David Lee, Zach Randolph and LaMarcus Aldridge all making their second appearance and the big fundamental Tim Duncan getting his 14th selection.
Last but not least; for the East reserves, Kyrie Irving, Jrue Holiday, Tyson Chandler, Joakim Noah and Paul George were all selected to their first ever all-star game with Luol Deng getting his second appearance and Chris Bosh getting his 8th selection giving Miami the most players at 3. There’s obviously a big snub in the picture shown above with Stephen Curry, but you can check after the jump to view the complete list of starters and reserves for both conferences.
