Celtics fans: Davis and Jokic should both feel unlucky. But I am still very happy that George is able to start.

PG having too good of a year, shame no Joker but hard to say PG doesn't deserve ittml4
76ers Fans: George played so well this year, it's a pity Jokic didn't make it into the starter, but it's hard to say George is not worthy of
[–]klawhileonard 466 points 11 hours ago
I've been saying he's a top 5 center for years and nobody paid attention. Bout time
I always say that George has been the top five centers in the league for many years, and no one cares. Now I've seen it.

Paul George:
Most dominant center in NBA history
Lakers Fan: Paul George: The most dominant center in NBA history.

PG was always the starting center in the Allstar game for me in MyCareer 2K18
Spurs Fans: Pickled pepper In my 2K18 my career mode, I have always been my All-Star starting center.
[–]NBA Aakamal24 63 points 12 hours ago
I don’t agree with them removing the C position the last few years.
NBA canceled the All-Star vote in the center position in the past few seasons.
(On October 24, 2012, the NBA officially announced that the All-Star starting voting canceled the center position and changed to three forwards and two defenders.)
[–]Lakers soft_cabbage 2253 points 10 hours ago
"Yeah fuck a center" - everyone who voted
AD and Jokic prob split votes.
Knicks Fan: Maybe it was Davis and Jokic who were diversion from each other.
[–][GSW] Calbert Cheaney swollencornholio 16 points 11 hours ago
AD is more of a PF traditionally speaking
Warriors Fans: From a traditional perspective, Davis is more like a power forward

Jokic has been robbed and I won’t stand for ittml4
Jokic has been robbed and I won’t stand for ittml4
Jokic has been underestimated, I can’t accept it
[–]Trail Blazers juice-- 53 points 11 hours ago
Very strange that Jokic didn't make it but then you look at the competition like ugh yeah I get it.
Trail Blazers fan: It's very strange that Jokic didn't enter the starting lineup, but looking at the competitors, I can understand
[–]Nuggets dubaRA7 53 points 11 hours ago
I'm just happy too see my man Joker with this kind of company. If he continues to play like this , maybe one day he will be starter.
Nuggets Fan: I'm already very happy to see my own child Jokic compare with those competitors.If he continues to perform like this, maybe he will be the starter sooner or later.
[–]Pistons throwaway_5256 864 points 11 hours ago
I know the league is perimeter oriented but surprised that AD didnt get enough votes to start. Especially since he did last year
This was obviously a manipulation by Magic and the Lakers to stoke AD's desire to go to a bigger market. Fine incoming
Pistons fan: I know the league is now experiencing an outside trend, but it is still surprising that Davis has not received enough votes to enter the starting lineup. Besides, he has performed so well in the past year.
It is obvious that all this is the control performed by the Magicians and the Lakers to tease Davis to the larger market. It works.
[–][PHI] Ben Simmons akushdakyng 104 points 10 hours ago
I saw the vote break-out, and surprisingly enough both players and media put AD over PG but PG got more fan votes than AD and wound up starting
Simmons Fan: I saw the composition of the voting. It was really surprising that whether the players vote or the media voted, Davis was before Pijiao, but Pijiao fans got more votes, which allowed him to occupy the starting seat.
[–]Grizzlies keepstrong 69 points 9 hours ago
PG got the fan vote despite the lakers fans hate? And small market okc.
Wow.
Grizzlies fan: Can pickled pepper actually get so many fans votes? He is the enemy of Los Angeles fans, and Oklahoma is another small club.
Wow
[–]WildYams 33 points 8 hours ago
There have to be more Laker haters than Laker fans, right? It's like Laker fans versus everybody else. Him spurning the Lakers probably won him a ton of Laker hater fan votes.
The number of lake black should be more than Laker honey, right? It's like the Humi group fighting against everyone else. George's previous cold refusal to the Lakers may have won him a large number of votes from Lake Black.
[–]Hornets Blindfide 17 points 7 hours ago
Sure but Lakers haters aren't going to vote for PG13 just for not going to the Lakers, that's too convoluted
Hornets fan: That's right, but Lakers black won't vote for George just because he didn't go to the Lakers, that's too convoluted
[–]Lakers jonsnowKITN 501 points 11 hours ago
The center position is definitely remembering but the best players in the league are more guards and forwards.
Lakers fans: The center position is definitely recovering, but most of the best players in the league are guards and forwards.
[–]76ers The_Jrueth 249 points 11 hours ago*
Embiid, Jokic and AD beg to different
76ers fans: Embid , Jokic and Davis do not agree.
Edit: To all the responses, I definitely consider KAT elite and the 4th best center in the league. I’m just saying in reference to this conversation I personally consider Embiid, Jokic and AD to be top 10 this year and KAT doesn’t quite make the cut. But he’s absolutely insanely good and for sure a top 20 player.

But he must be very powerful, and he is enough to get ahead 20.
[–]Lakers jonsnowKITN 567 points 11 hours ago
Lebron, KD, Steph, Harden, Kawhi and more would beg to different.
Lakers fans: James , Durant , Curry , Harden, Leonard, etc. There are many people who have something to say.
[–][PHI] T.J. McConnell Hesi_Pull-up_Timbo 167 points 11 hours ago
Add Giannis to that list but after that has to be AD or Embiid
76ers fan: Add Antetokounmpo to your list, but there must be Davis or Embiid.
[–]Lakers jonsnowKITN 36 points 11 hours ago
That's why the players I listed before they are guards and forwards and therefore will get more recognition. The center position is on the come up but it's not there yet.
Lakers fan: So I am the guards and forwards in front of this list, and they have received greater recognition. Although the center position is rising, it has not reached that level yet.
[–][MIN] Karl-Anthony Towns JimmySlutler 77 points 11 hours ago
Centers ain’t sexy besides Embiid
Downs fan: The centers except Embiid are not sexy enough.
[–]HolyAty 79 points 11 hours ago
KAT would like to have a word.
Downs has something to say.
[–]76ers retroracer 69 points 9 hours ago
Super tall people look fucking weird naked
76ers fans: These super long fruits look really weird

God damnit why did I open this on the train
Warriors fans: Oh, why did I click this picture on the subway
[–]Lakers GuerrillaApe 74 points 10 hours ago
Welp, now I'm getting weird looks in the office.
Lakers Fan: OK, now everyone in the office is looking at me with strange eyes.
[–]stragen595 35 points 8 hours ago
Then you should have kept the pants on.

[–]76ers themidnightmamba 43 points 12 hours ago
No issues with this.
76 fans: This starter is fine
[–]Lakers jonsnowKITN 437 points 12 hours ago

[–]Raptors raptorsbucketnator 50 points 11 hours ago
??? PG has been on the radar for half a decade
Raptors Fans:? ? ? Everyone can see the performance of Pickled Pepper in the past five seasons
[–]Mavericks HesiPullOutJimbo 109 points 11 hours ago
this is his 3rd startthed
Mavericks Fan: This is his third All-Star starter
[–]Celtics cimmanonrolls 118 points 11 hours ago
doing this in the west is mad impressive Though
Celtics fans: But it is still amazing to be able to start the All-Star in the West
[–]Lakers PENIS__FINGERS 62 points 11 hours ago
We acting like people sleeping on PG though lol
Lakers fans: We are like everyone looked down on bubble peppers before, hahaha
[–]Warriors manisier 17 points 11 hours ago
Ah yes, perennally underrated player Paul George
Warriors Fan: That's right, George
[–][ATL] Dominique Wilkins CounterInsanity 712 points 12 hours ago
I didn't think Paul George was going to make it. Definitely thought Anthony Davis was getting the nod. I'm so happy to hear he got in. The guy deserves it. He's been an absolute monster this season.
Hawks fan: I didn't think George would enter the Western Conference starter before, but instead thought Davis would definitely enter. It was still very happy to hear George was selected, which was what he deserved. His performance this season is too exciting.
[–][UTA] Derrick Favors lastfollower 180 points 12 hours ago
Got it on the fan vote tiebreaker. It was definitely a tossuph
Jazz fan: He won in the number of votes for fans. There is still a lot of luck.
[–][ATL] Dominique Wilkins CounterInsanity 29 points 12 hours ago
Yeah I saw them discussing it on TNT. I think even Chuck said that PG deserved it over AD. Happy the fans got this one right.
Hawks fan: Yeah, I saw the discussion on TNT. I remember even Barkley said pickled peppers are more worthy of starting than Davis. I'm glad that the fans finally got the vote right.
[–][OKC] Jerami Grant giohoho 805 points 12 hours ago
So hypered for PG man
Thunder Fan: I'm really happy for George.
[–]Thunder Khalems 91 points 11 hours ago
Deserves.
Thunder fan: It deserves it.
[–]Raptors Phenomenal2313 7 points 12 hours ago
Well deserved spot for PG-13 . He’s got a chance for defender player of the year , 1st team defense , 1st team All-NBA , MVP candidate
Paul George is probably a top 10 player in the NBA right now
Raptors fan: Pickled pepper is well deserved. He has the opportunity to compete for the best defensive player of the year, first team of defense of the year, first team of the year and MVP.
Pickup now may be the top ten players in the league.
[–][MIA] Gary Payton BlackEygptian 260 points 11 hours ago
S/O to his surgeon. 1000% recovery from his leg injury,
Heat fans: Salute to his surgeon. He recovered from a leg injury to 1000%.
[–]Spurs stud_macha 126 points 11 hours ago*
Can’t be mad. PG has been playing out of his mind now. My picks for reserves-
AD, Jokic, KAT, Aldridge, Westbrook, Lillard, Tobias Harris/*Gobert
Spurs fans: This lineup has no temper. The pickled peppers are really good now. My substitutes are: Davis, Jokic, Towns , Aldridge , Westbrook , Lillard , Tobius- Harris or Gobert .

Thank god luka isn’t starting
Warriors Fan: Thank God, Doncic did not become the starter.
[–]Bucks teotsi 27 points 12 hours ago
"The players have been praising him, they'll vote him in"
Bucks fans: Isn't anyone saying "the players are praising him, they will throw Doncic into the starter"?
[–]Mavericks OmfgHaxx 137 points 12 hours ago
Honestly I agree. I didn't want the shitstorm that would have occurred.
Mavericks Fan: To be honest, I feel lucky too. If I really get selected, I don't want to see this cause him a lot of infamy.
[–]Mavericks BWalsh10 51 points 12 hours ago
Yeah I hope he’s reserve but I’m almost saved he didn’t get start this year because the hate would have been insane
Mavericks fan: Yes, I hope he can be substituted, but I was really relieved when he didn’t make the starter, because if he was selected, he would probably be squirted to death.
[–][GSW] Stephen Curry Vip_Pwner 19 points 12 hours ago
Same even though he's good he's not Lebron KD level and PG has played really well this year
Warriors Fan: I think the same way. Although he is very good, he is not at the level of James and Durant, and Paulo has played very well this season.
[–][MIN] Derrick Rose WheedMBoise 144 points 12 hours ago
Derrick Rose :(

He's not even a starter on his own team. How you expect him to be a starter for all stars

DRose tied for 3rd with Westbrook behind Curry and Harden, never been happier for someone to be 3rd and in the conversation
Simmons Fan: Rose's votes ranked behind Curry and Harden, tied for third with Westbrook, this is the first time I'm so happy for someone to get third.

Lmao Embiid getting drafted 1 overall
Warriors fan: Hahaha, Embiid is going to be the first to be chosen.
[–]Lakers AmnestyTHAT 195 points 11 hours ago
LeBron is going to take KD #1 again.
Lakers fan: James will still be the first to be chosen Durant.
[–]JohnMarsten4Prez 15 points 12 hours ago
Lebron just sitting back like man, why these dudes playing so much ball?
Take a month off, and get rested up for the all star game.
James just sat there, thinking to himself, Oh my God, why are these buddies playing so many games?
Resting for a month, and then resting well for this All-Star game, isn't you good at
