Biggest all star snub ever?
Kawhi realistically should have been suspended for the season so I really don’t care if he was snubbed or not.
He has higher…aspirations
This. It is insane how the league just swept it under a rug. It would have looked nasty if they made him an allstar and he chose not to appear (with rest as his excuse).
Brunson next
We sont have the mountain of proof for brunson
Yet
Interesting logic right there
yeah you’re right. he should be in jail
Coaches were pissed about the tampering shit lol
He should’ve been suspended for the season. Who gives a fuck he missed a meaningless game?
Probably people who are paying to watch the game? Don’t think anyone wants to watch Deni over kawhi
Kawhi wasn’t bumped by Deni. Deni is on the international team.
But the teams were selected based on conferences with no consideration for the US/International format.
The plan was to add additional players to reach the minimum for US/World teams if needed, but that had no effect on the initial selections
Deni was promised his selection
3000 years ago?
Fan voting sure says the opposite
[removed]
He got almost 4x as many votes as Kawhi. Maybe criticize your fanbase for not showing out 🤷♂️
It’s the reserves not the starters
Fans don’t vote on reserves. I’m proving your point that the fans would rather watch Kawhi than Deni, false.
Stfu
legitimately the biggest snub i have ever remembered
If he was #1 in LeBron, LeBron would still be #1.
Lmao I’m dead
Uhhh
He probably get in cause someone drops out between now and all star game
he should have been a lock tho. No way he should even replace anyone lol
probably the games played tbh
He didn’t aspire to be an all star
Are you this funny at parties. you should do standup bro.
He played 34 more games than he supposed to this year.
Well he also has a contract tampering case so I don’t want to see him
I really don’t believe you care that much, c’mon bruh.
No, Kawhi and the Clippers trying to play by different rules than every other team is something I legitimately hate. It has completely damaged and flipped the way I see him, I do not like him anymore and don’t want to see him succeed
Biggest all star snub in history
can’t. needed room for Chet Holmgren
Chet easily deserves all star this season lmao, the 2 worst names on the list r LeBron and Deni
BIG CHEDDARRRRR
And still below .500. All Star games tend to prioritize winning teams, that’s why that Hawks team had 4 all stars
the lakers had two All-Stars as a 10 seed man lool
Deni is having a worse season and the teams records are similar
Good point on that. I was thinking about LeBron lol
Kawhi has missed a quarter of his team’s games. This forces his team to use a replacement-level player instead. Not a snub.
Best record in nba last 20 games fwiw
Surely Ballmer can just buy him a ticket?
Or Uncle Leonard can smooth talk him in?
The irony of making this post while completely ignoring Harden lmao. Clippers would be the worst team in the league by a good margin without him regardless of Kawhi going supernova for a month.
Top 3 player in the west this season. Unbelievable snub
statistically he’s been a top 7ish player this szn
He shouldn’t have been allowed to play this season lol I hope he gets snubbed again
How many trees planted?
Aspirations
You conveniently left out his games played.
Bro isn’t aspiring hard enough
Kawhi should have aspired to be an all star more.
Defrauding the league rules that all the voters’ teams play under won him few friends, turns out
He’s a great player but a generational scumbag, should feel lucky he’s allowed to even play
He got robbed
Nah.
He could have stayed in the east, instead despite having Harden on his team, can’t even be .500.
They’re a 10th seed. That’s no guarantee of an all star selection in the west, just look at Murray getting his first finally.
Maybe if they were top 8 but even…. Portland is higher in the standings.
Where dis snoo pie ass at so I can bitch at his reply
lebron steph and deni pumping gallons to genocide but trees are a problem now
Games played?
34, 4 more than LeBron if that is a legitimate question.
If you’re just being a smart ass instead..carry on.
damn that seems like enough to make it. Clippers losing early without him probably hurt his votes.
It definitely does and we don’t even have a .500 record. I’m glad he can rest though, We are tempting fate with him playing this many games already and back to backs this year.
His competition isn’t Lebron. Lebron is in as a legacy vote. His competition are Deni and Chet. I find it hard to believe players or media would vote for either over Kawhi (considering his resume, counting stats/advanced stats are considerably ahead) so I’m curious what happened here if coaches weighed the games missed or Aspiration related stuff into their vote.
still a bum and will probably go to prison like his sister with all this underhanded money deals. Clippers just gonna get clipped after All Star Break.
too bad he ruined his legacy by not staying in canada
I would argue he deserves it over Wemby…
A joke that he didn’t make it.
yeah that is an insane snub
Kawhi-ing over an all star bid?
Absolute joke he didn’t get voted in
He should’ve been an all star selection.
why is your comment downvoted, r/nba has to be the most anti kawhi place on the internet, all other social media are advocating for kawhi but these reddit nerds think differently
