    Default who the *** is Isaiah Thomas?

    Stupid question I know, everyknow knows he was the point guard for the bad boys pistons teams that won in 89 and 90..

    But when I looked at the allstar reserves list that just came out, I see his name on it? I immediately went da ***?

    Turns out theres a 5'9 guy shooting 42% on the fukn Celtics that made the all-star team.

    Is this one of the shittiest selections ever? Literally never even heard of this guy. all-stars are supposed to be Cornerstones of a franchise, not guys that will be bumping around on new teams every year.

    Meanwhile legit players such as Lillard, Dirk, Gasol, Deandre Jordan don't make the team.

    Aldridge is overrated as shit too. I don't even think he's more impactful than Duncan. They just wanted to put a 2nd Spur on there no matter what, and Duncan misses too many games.

    Yeah it's kinda a weird pick, he might score 20 ppg but his defense is just appalling

    42% shooting isn't the only thing he does, that's an extremely unfair presentation. He averages 21 points and 6 assists for the team with the fifth-best record in the EC, 26-21. There are players with solid All-Star arguments that didn't make it but Thomas is not the guy to single out as a baseless selection.

    He's not worse than Korver last season.

    What's so bad about 21PPG on .424/.347/.892 and 6.6APG for a point guard?

    You Bran stan are still caught up on all of that FG% eh?

    Yup. IT is benefiting from the success of the Boston Celtics.

    In short: you don't know anything about basketball or the NBA.

    If you watch games and not only box scores you'd know that Isaiah is beastin' right now

    He's more deserving that Irving.

    1) It's the ASG. Defense isn't going to be played until 4th quarter.

    2) He's probably going to see the least or 2nd least amount of minutes in terms of guards of the team.

    OP you better start knowing that name, he deserves the spot, I would have liked to have seen coach Stevens get the coaching role (or Casey for that matter) but I'll live with it, good to see IT in there.

    Where in my post did I say anything about the ASG?

    His play on the offenive side is fine, but his defense is terrible. I AM NOT SURE THIS WARRANTS AN AS SELECTION
