2012 NBA All-Star Reserves Announced


Tonight, the NBA All-Star reserves were announced, and the League’s website has the full list. (Happy, unhappy with the selections?): “Perennial All-Stars Paul Pierce and Dirk Nowitzki have been chosen as All-Stars for the 10th and 11th time, respectively, and headline the list of 14 players that have been selected by the coaches as reserves for the 2012 NBA All-Star Game, the NBA announced today … Joining Pierce as reserves on the East squad are Chris Bosh, Luol Deng, Roy Hibbert, Andre Iguodala, Joe Johnson, and Deron Williams.

Nowitzki, whose 11 selections are consecutive, is joined on the West team by reserves LaMarcus Aldridge, Marc Gasol, Kevin Love, Steve Nash, Tony Parker, and Russell Westbrook.”

    At least Lamarcus got in..about damn time. I like the west squad, save Dirk. And I don’t like Paul Pierce on the East squad. Iguodala, Deng, Hibbert all deserve it. Their teams are beasting so far and they have been keys to that success. I’d rather have JSmoove over pierce

    Feel bad for Brandon Jennings. He’s playing all star worthy ball but there is a ton of good guards in the east. No Rondo surprised me. He missed 8 games but so what! Dirk definitely surprised me and Tony Parker made it because of the numbers he put up last week!

    @Enigmatic: I totally agree. That’s what I’ve been saying all along. And Charlie, there is a loophole for the coaches in that they can name a forward who plays center on a regular basis as the backup C, thus talking about replacing Hibbert with a guard or a forward and naming Bosh the backup center makes sense. It should be the 12 best players regardless of position and Hibbert is not one of the 12 best players in the Eastern conference, does anyone really think Hibbert is better than Rondo and Smith? I have no problem with DWill making it, or any other superb player on a bad team as Allenp says. The West squad is fine except for Dirk over Gay, Pau or Lowry.

    …or Ellis

  • DSmith

    I can’t believe my eyes…… Roy Hibbert over Boozer or Noah…… The NBA has truely fallen off in the past couple of years awarding All-Star positions to players who haven’t really earned them. Yes they are making up gor the past snubs with Dwill…. Dirk definitely didnt deserve a spot just because of his title last season seein as his production is down!!
