    I'd definitely have taken Lowry over JJ.

    Chuck (on Dwight) Really good player who is an all-star. He can't be your best player. He hasn't gotten a ton better. He's a very good player, not a franchise player.

    EJ didn't "vote" for him.

    Davis will surely make it in as an injury replacement for Kobe.
    He's the hometown player.

    Afflalo got robbed; better PPG, PER, Assists per game, and RPG than Johnson

    What a joke. Lowry should be in the starting east all-star lineup and he's not even in it!?

    Nobody in the East got snubbed. It's hard to get snubbed when most of the players in the East roster don't even deserve to be all-stars in the first place.

    Eliminate the conference restrictions and suddenly 3/4 of the all-stars are from the West.

    I don't really have any issues with the West selections, but don't feel as comfortable with those who will be the Eastern Conference reserves. I would have put Lowry in over Joe Johnson.
