What would it take for Gordo to make it to the AS Game?

[Stifle Tower]

As for GH making the all-star game, he needs to have more big time performances against top teams like he did vs. Golden State. Also, Utah needs to be in the playoff race. That, or move to Boston, NY or LA where he'll get more national exposure.

 

[Lakers_Slapper]

Well, Memphis used to be the Vancouver Grizzlies. AS for New Orleans, one other team needs to be in the WC. NO grouped with the Texas teams makes the most sense. If the NBA sticks with the traditional East vs. West format, the current alignment of teams is just fine.

Memphis used to be the Vancouver Grizzlies and the Utah Jazz used to be the New Orleans Jazz, and LA Lakers used to be the Minneapolis Lakers, and the Warriors used to be out of Philli. And San Diego Rockets moved to Houston, teams change cities all the time. If they move to another part of the country it only makes sense. Your a fool.

Or you could re-align the conferences. How the hell they get Memphis and New Orleans in the West??

Yeah, and then move who West cupcake?

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Yeah, and then move who West cupcake?

Detroit?

Indiana?

My geography ain't strong, but aren't those locations just as East as Memphis?

I don't think it's a huge deal though, the conferences should balance out eventually.

At least a 20-5-5 season on a playoff bound team.

I mean ****ing Lillard has 22-6-5 this year and he isn't making the All-Star team. It's ****ing hard out here in teh West.

Kinda hard out here fo a pimp

You would think, but the Western Conference has been the superior conference now for the past 20+ seasons.

A winning record, 20+ ppgs. Give it 2 years.

Not quite. The East was very good in the mid- to late-90s.

True. Still 15 years of dominance is a long time. And the current lottery system actually hurts many eastern teams. Teams with bad records make the playoffs and lose a chance at the lottery. Decent teams with better records than the 8 and sometimes 7 and 6 seed from the East get a lottery pick. Each team has their own plane. Flights are easier. They should divide the games more evenly and take the top 16 teams in the playoffs.

A winning record and serious playoff hopes... aka not this season

Jazz reaching championship level contention

If the jazz were contenders this year I think he'd be an Allstar with his current numbers
