The lack of big men is astounding.  This is almost all guards.  Fuck this shit.

Racism is a one way street. Sports like hockey and swimming are racist. Basketball and Football are not. Oscars are racist. Grammys are not. Republicans are racist. Democrats are not.

Which white player do you feel was unfairly excluded?

Dirk Nowitzki's performance was at least as good as Will Smith's.

^This. Agree.

[Skeletor]

DeMar, DeMarcus, LaMarcus, LeBron.

[Coffeed]

Who cares...

Teams seem to barely take the regular season seriously now, let alone the all star game!

Dirk Nowitzki's performance was at least as good as Will Smith's.

Fair point....you would take Dirk over LMA I take it?

The best white players will probably destroy these spoiled African Americans with proper training. They have been propped up by the fake jews.

Gordon Hayward?

It's a subjective system, which it should be, and I don't necessarily have an issue with the players selected, but...

With that said, Hayward, Love, JJ, Porzingas, Dirk, and Marc Gasol, all have arguments to be included in the game.  I'm sure I'm missing one or two as well.

Good point, forgot about Marc Gasol 

[KnightXavi]

Good point, forgot about Marc Gasol 

I would put Pau in, before Marc.

[Ronnie Rep]

Who cares. In case you haven't noticed the NBA is 75% Black.

it's a 6 ft 6 league anymore.

[oldgolds]

Good...I like to see the best, whoever they might be, but it should be this way throughout society. No more affirmative action in academia, business, contracts etc. Let the best rise to the top unimpeded. Makes for a better society.

So the wealthy Argentinian athletes who've been in state-sponsored training programs since they were 10 can't afford the "proper training" provided to inner city high school American black kids on the playground? At least make a coherent argument you fucking moron.

The NBA must be conscious of this issue and is stuck in a tough spot on the PR front.
The top players of NBA teams and majority of players are black.
Fair or not the majority of season ticket holders and sponsors aren't black.

I'm a major fan of hockey, baseball ,soccer and (lastly) football.
I played some youth league basketball as a kid but sucked , so moved into sports I could play well.
It my OPINION, the NBA has a street , hip  hop culture which may be due to the background and culture of most in the league.

The NBA has talented athletes and is a successful sports league.
I'm not much of a fan for the reasons posted above.

If your favorite sports are hockey and baseball and your least favorite are football and basketball, you might be a racist. Please do not announce these views publicly as it may lead to job termination or public shaming. Please check your white privilege at the country club entrance.
