The real tragedy is that I don't have anyone in the 3 point competition when I've had 2 different players win the last 2 seasons. I mean should they even let in people who shoot less than 30%? And what are they thinking throwing up so many 3's with those percentages?

That said I think Suk jae and Ratinho both were deserving of their spots on the allstar team.

Oh man, I thought Ugona won the 3 point last season. I'm losing my mind...

Actually Ian is the worse of the three guards, surprisingly. Jaka is the best one, his defense separates him a tier higher than the other two. Demotion is a pride killer, but I can see a benefit from it, promotion money if I can retain my team. I dont know yet, I just need one really good center and id be in a different boat right now.

What happened to the All Star game?

Well actually, I don't think I'd take either of your centers over Virgil.

Despite being in foul trouble nearly every game played, still managed to average 12 boards, 14 points, 2 assists and shot nearly 50% a game, and the games not in foul trouble and actually got significant minutes, posted really good numbers.
That alone, in my eyes should put him on the all star team over the other centers on our side. He is an all star and would be on any team in this league that he played for.
Put him on your team discipline, and I'm almost 100% positive he'd carry the load for your offense. Now since he's not on your team how am I to know that? I don't, it's of course based on opinion and seen how he's performed for my team even though Artur carries the load.

And it's also based on my opinion of the all star game, I think it should consist of the best players in the league, not the players who just perform well because they are on a team with no other players and somebody has to score you know, which often times I've seen that be the case. (as well as needs to be revised IMO)
Ive seen 18k salary players take start over a 100k salary player.. No possible way that should ever be the case.

I absolutely disagree with everything you said, except that pound-by-pound your Virgil is better than my Dodge. That, I will give you, but if we're to compare their current stats, I think your arguments are laughable. I mean, the guy is center and he can't even shoot over 50% for God's sake. I mean, should I say anything else?
Now, as far as your opinion that only "the best players in the league" should play at All Star game, I agree, but can you please define "the best player?" I mean, you're obviously implying that the best players are those with highest salaries, but since when "the most payed player in the league" is "the best player in the league?" I think that you're being extremely biased and that you're not even trying to look at things from objective point of view.

Now, if you will excuse me, I need to vent a bit. How in the hell did I lose to TPs? I mean, I'm already over it, but that was some major B.S. There. I said it. And now I go to sleep.

I don't know, man, but it just doesn't seem right. I was playing at home, you TIEed, I had 20 rebounds more (out of that 16 offensive), your second unit was laughable, your point guard played with 5 personal fouls for almost a whole fourth quarter (and somehow, after being completely irrelevant for the first three quarters, pours in 10 consecutive points to slash my double-digit lead).. I mean, the list just goes on and on.
I don't know.. perhaps this is a some kind of payback.. universal justice, if you wish.. for that one point win against Postal a couple of weeks ago.

Truth of the matter though, and I am surprised about it, but if you look at the pp100......maybe I shouldnt have lost after all.

In response to that, that should have never happened. According to those same team ratings, my defense was just as good as it was yours, and my offense was better, but whatever; it's all water under the bridge now.

Congratulations on your win :)

My arguments are laughable? Lol are they really that extreme to think one of the best centers in this league should not make the all star team? And no, I'm not saying the highest paid players. That was your words not mine.
For a center, if you'd ever watch any of my games you'd notice that Virgil takes an abnormal amount of mid-long range jump shots, for a center, and still manages 49%. Now if everything were at the rim, I'm sure he'd average 30 points a game and shoot 65%. but surprisingly he takes very little shots at the rim, probably because Artur clogs the paint.
You can keep your combination of centers, I'll keep mine, and mine will still dominate your "all stars". Lol.
That's laughable.

And maybe you lost that game cause TPs are better than your team maybe? Your OD isn't good enough and his guards took it to yours. And in my experience, a guard heavy team wins more times than none against a center heavy team.

Wow, aren't you bitter. Oh well, at least now I know with whom I can talk some sense.

I just noticed that the minutes from the All Star Game were weird. The starters for both teams only played 9 minutes, then the rest was all bench! Kinda lame
