    Many experts thought Stephenson was a shoe in. Thinking Lowry may gotten his spot.

    not even remotely true.

    They probably figured Miami was the only team deserving of three all-star selections

    Maybe because they figure Lowry would be on the outs after this season and wanted to reward a Raptor who'll be there for a couple years? I don't know.

    I really thought he had a good chance. He's been the catalyst for an overachieving team.

    If that's the reasoning, they should have gone with Lowry. He's less likely to have an all-star deserving year in the future, so let him be the all-star this year.

    DeRozan and Joe Johnson over Kyle Lowry is both sad and hilarious, in a Dumb and Dumber way.

    How is he a 'chucker'? Or overrated, considering he wasn't named to the AS team?

    DeRozen is more of a chucker than Stephenson
