West MVP of the First Trimester: James Harden, Houston

Harden is one of my least favorite players but I'd probably have to give it to him as well. The guards in the west are insane. Somebody is going to get left off the allstar team that could end up being a finals MVP. Especially with shitty Kobe being voted in a starter. There are only 2-4 spots max for Harden, Klay , Conley, Lillard, CP3, Westbrook, Parker, Lawson.

Parker has no shot. His stats aren't that good this year, he has missed games and the Spurs are struggling. He won't make it.

And either does Lawson. Conley has one (but not if it is him vs Lillard).
 
Without Harden's 8.8 FTM per game, his scoring numbers seem much more average for an All-Star.
 
I could see the all star team being Davis/Griffin/Gasol/Kobe/Curry voted in by fans with a bench of Howard/Dirk/Aldridge/Durant/Harden/CP3/Westbrook.

That leaves Duncan/Klay/Lillard as the snubs. Maybe one or two of those guys make it but who gets left out?

Why would Durant make the cut? He hasn't played more than a game or two. The Thunder are also outside of the playoff picture. There's no chance KD makes it.

Durant's played 9 games during which they've gone 7-2. If he comes back in the next week and the Thunder go on a run for the final 6 weeks before the all star game I bet he makes it. He's the reigning MVP.

I'm not saying Lillard won't make it; if I had to bet I'd say its more likely he makes it than not. But its just so damn crowded in the west with exceptional players somebody is going to get left out. Its far from a sure thing our two Blazers are in. Without injuries Lillard doesn't make it last year.

That's essentially a third of the games that everyone else has played. I just don't see it. The coaches take that into consideration.
 
4.4 flops per game? Why you gotta short a man his flops? That guy flops at LEAST 10 times a game.
Now THAT would be a good drinking game. IF you could stomach watching the game.

Dunno how to show a video here. But this seemed appropriate.
even kind of flops from a tap on the arm. Maybe the guy actually has very sensitive nerve endings.
