Neither of those guys were all stars before or during 1978 doe so that poster wouldn't be wrong going off of the OP

that cast of "d league" players somehow only lost game the elimination game of the finals by one point when Lebron shot 30 times to score 24 points..

Only about 6% of players in the league are an all-star in any given year, so it's still a pretty notable honor. However, a lot of guys are one or two year wonders, and that's why topics like this are silly. There have been players with mediocre careers who've made an all-star team, and players with great careers who were never selected.

good find. I think he's right. Although it had Oscar freakin Robertson on the team. I don't care if it was his last year, he's Oscar freakin Robertson. And then Bob Dandridge made the All-Star Game in 1973, 1975, 1976, etc., but of course not 1974.

thread is about teammates who were never elected as an all-star or all-NBA team in their career.
Kareem had the Big O

I thought the ones with the Nets were worse. Especially Nets vs. Spurs. But the one with Shaq was bad too. It was hard to watch Todd McC getting brutalized by Shaq over and over again.

Yep. the 2001 and 2002 Western Conference Finals were more entertaining than the Finals. the Kings were a great team that got robbed by the refs. Kidd was fantastic though. And Kobe was really bad.

Lol, the WCF was actually significantly less competitive than the Finals in '01. And Kobe was really bad in the '02 Finals?

He probably meant 00 when Kobe played on a bum ankle.

Hmm .
75 Barry and 81 Moses hadn't 20+ minutes played all star teammates at finals. Calvin Murphy and Jeff Mullins are played less than 20 minutes at finals' .

whoops looks like i got my years muddled up
maybe in 01 but the Kings were more entertaining. Or was that Portland? I think it was Portland. I found the Portland-Lakers series entertaining.
anyways i meant the 01 Finals, i mean look at Kobe's shooting:
http://www.basketball-reference.com/...vs-lakers.html
a piss poor 41% while taking almost as many shots as the most-efficient-player-to-ever-play Diesel Tanker whom he could have passed to inside. He ball-hogged.
and then the 2000 Finals for Kobe? 37% from the field on 90 shots in 6 games.
