Well another All-Star weekend and once again the contributions of the
members of the Pistons goes unnoticed and unawarded by the fans. Sure
Rip, Chauncey and Rasheed are in the All-Star game, but all by
default.
The Pistons' rookies, who have been contriubting all season, Arron
Affalo and Rodney Stuckey were not selected to play in the Rookies vs
Sophomore's game.
Sophomores Jason Maxiell and Amir Johnson were not invited to play for
the Sophmores.
But that's alright. When these guys walk around next season with
their NBA championship rings on, they'll have the last laugh.
Regards,

Serendipitous.

Championship ring?
They'll be lucky to make it to the Eastern Conference finals. That'll
be a milestone for Saunders.
Cleveland is still there! Mike Brown is still the coach, and King James
is a year better.
Haven't beat the Bulls yet this season.
Magic growing in confidence after a victory this year after 11 tries.
Wizzards could be healthy at the end of this year.
And lets not forget Boston, that's a battle in itself!
Way to early to be talking rings, unless that's all it is is talk.
And any West Coast team capable of reaching the finals is quite capable
of defeating us....

What do the fans have to do with selecting the rookie challenge players?
IIRC they are voted on by the assistant coaches and there are only 8 per
team.

The coaches vote to me are more valid than the fans...

Fans have nothing to do with it which is why I included NBA in my
subject title.

Not worth whining about...not worth arguing over for that matter so why did
I do just that?

The league has informed the Blazers
that Wallace and the team will be fined the next
time Wallace ignores his responsibilities
to speak to members of the media.
Wallace was unavailable to comment.

Wait! We are not good at math....Maxiell is not a sophmore, he is in his 3rd
year....no wonder he did not get votes... =)

Oh crap! I was confused by his player profile which says he has 2
years NBA experience...which means this is his third year. Maybe they
should have a juniors vs sophomores challenge!
