1st team looks damn fine to me. Exactly right.

2nd team
C Stoudemire
PF Duncan
SF Nowitzki
SG Nash
PG Williams

Worst balanced team ever.

3rd team:
C Yao
PF Boozer
SF Pierce
SG Ginobili
PG McGrady.

More ridiculous stuff. Two PGs in one team and then two SGs in the other.


The All-NBA Teams were chosen by a panel of 127 sportswriters and broadcasters throughout the United States and Canada. The media voted for All-NBA First, Second and Third Teams by position with points awarded on a 5-3-1 basis.

The first team is good exceptI think that Stoudemire should come in for Howard.

 

[Benny_]

Who the ____ voted for Jason Kidd. Ridiculous.

 

[jerry springer]

Yao?

 

[celtic_pride]

That 1st team would just about be the best one in more then 10 years IMHO ..

 

[eathb]

Iverson played 82 games while leading the NBA in minutes played, had more ppg, apg, better FG% then Tracy Mcgrady while adding 2 steals per game... Mcgrady only played 66 games and started 62. there is no way Tmac deserves it over AI, sorry.

hell, he didn't even get enough votes from China to make the All-Star team, and said that he doesn't deserve to be there.

wtf?

and the 3 runner ups were Camby and Melo and AI... man... that sucks.

my gut says that if they were in the East, then at least one would be there.

Glad to see Gino get a gig.Amazing he didnt make the all-star team.the coaches should go shoot themselves

I thought Boozer should be 2nd team ahead of STAT who only got hot in the last month or so of the regular season.Boozer was far more consistent across the whole season

 

[Portmanteau]

Just to be clear, there are no distinctions made betweens types of forwards and guards for the teams. So you can have 2 shooting guards or point guards, for instance.

I think they are pretty much spot on.

STAT was still putting up similar numbers to Boozer prior to the arrival of Shaq. I think it was justified. I think Gino got done over.

Hard argue against the guys on the 1st team. But, where are the posters who think that Williams is better than Paul? The voters don't share your sentiment.

Cheers Bresh.

I wasnt too sure about that and couldnt remember on previous years.

You arent about enough, your knowledge of NBA everything is simply sensational. Sounds strange after 1 call but overall your input, though slightly rare lately, is A+ each time


That said they should pick per position rather than votes.

i think you owe bresh a gobby along with the compliments
he's certainly better than celticpride


anyway cant complain with those teams really.

 

[WakeUpPies]

the 22 win streak got Tmac over the line, and Yao deserves to be on the third team you nugget homer, if you really think Camby is better than Yao you need your head checked, Yao was the best center in the league when he got injured this year after Dwight faded.

The 1st team is spot on, so is the second, not so sure about Manu and Tmac

 

[footylover18]

This is the best 1st NBA team in a long time.
