Tristan over Kanter is pathetic.

Hopefully this pisses Kanter off and he starts playing with a chip on his shoulder.

Edit: Same with Favors and hopefully Burks will get out of the doghouse and earn his minutes.
 
I really hope that Favors not being chosen this year and being chosen last year puts some sort of chip on his shoulder or something.
 
I kinda understand Favors. But, no ****ing way Kanter should be left out of this game. With his elite rebounding, and post skills. No ****ing way that Tristan or Markieff ever become an all-star before Kanter. I'm starting to think that he is kinda a big secret in this league.

Markieff Morris, and his sub .400 shooting, over Kanter is even worse.

First thing I thought. Markieff has been playing like a scrub all season long, cannot fathom Kanter being snubbed over him

I'm gonna guess Shaq drafted the rookies because he's a complete and utter moron.

I bet he was too. Of course they would choose someone that is biased to choose the players. Shaq is always protecting his legacy, just look at him and Dwight. Also, notice that there is not a single center on that team. I don't think he likes other big men. Not that he is threatened by Kanter. I just think he is an attention whore.
 
I still think Favors was the better choice, presuming it came down to either him or Tiago. Blake Griffin is the only power forward on that roster, and Favors is a way better pf than Splitter, imo. Sure, Splitters averaging a point more off of better shooting percentages (this season), but Derrick is out boarding him, MUCH better on defend, and is playing less minutes. Plus, Favors career numbers are much more impressive. He was on the ****ing All-Rookie 2nd team for crying out loud.

I think they just didn't want to put two jazz players on the roster; can't think of any other reasons.
