1st TEAM…Lebron James,Kevin Durant,Kobe Bryant,Derrick Rose,Dwight Howard

2nd TEAM…Dwayne Wade,Russell Westbrook,Pau Gasol,Amare Stoudemire,Dirk Nowitzki

3rd TEAM….Chris Paul,Manu Ginobili,Zack Randolph,LaMarcus Aldridge,Al Horford

 

Its great seeing the league finally show Randolph and Aldridge some respect….

Its strange not seeing a Celtic on any of the team..I thought Rondo would make all league,  its kind of surprising not seeing him…..

I felt Blake Griffin should’ve been on the 2nd or 3rd team….

[Ghost01Participant]

ROFL at Kobe over Wade.

 

[RUDEBOY_Participant]

The backcourt starters for the All League 1st team has been Fierce Competition for years and will continue to be for the next few years…

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Really?  Kobe over Wade?

I have a feeling Zach Randolph was put in there because of his recent success.  Kevin Love had a better season.

[ProudGrandpaParticipant]

Randolph is just as much of a center and he had a much better year

[Ghost01Participant]

No Kevin Love didnt. There numbers where similar. and K Love was more worried about grabbing rebounds and doing interviews than winning games. Im pretty sure a player on the worst team in the league has never been all nba.

[surveParticipant]

Love may have had a better year statistically but Randolph was more valuable to his team.  How many more games could the Wolves had lost without Love….maybe 5?  Without Zach, Griz dont make the playoffs and they are close to getting to the finals.

Thought Wade would make 1st over Kobe, but L.A. did have a good run after All Star break…then again they had a collapse right after.

Rondo was deserving.  Carmelo couldve been there.  Overall, I have no complaints with these teams. 

[kevnix5Participant]

If you notice all of those teams made the playoffs, people like Blake Griffin and Kevin Love who had monster seasons (statistically) don’t get put on all-nba teams. Don’t worry though both of them will have plenty of chances in the future to make those teams. If this had been chosen before the playoffs started I don’t think Zach Randolph would have made it probably. Not that I think he doesn’t deserve it but Melo likely would have been on there ahead of him at the end of the regular season.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

I agree with Kevnix.  If Zach Randolph played an average series and lost in the 1st Rd against the Spurs, he wouldn’t have been on this list.

[KDThunder35Participant]

Ya no way is Horford on an All-NBA team.  He is the most overrated post player in the league.  IMO he should never have been an all-star either of the past two years, even with a weak Eastern Conference frontline.

[Ghost01Participant]

I dont care who you agree with. ZBo earned it over Love.

 

Please justify 20.1 PPG, 12.2 RPG, 50% shooting on a playoff team not being better than 20.1, 15.2 47% shooting on a 17 win team. Its not even close.

[RUDEBOY_Participant]

To be fair Randolph played well all season..Without him Memphis is a lottery team…..He deserved being named an all league performer….

the only questionable selection i see is Horford…He played well….but not great..I think you can make a case for Love over Horford…

Rondo should’ve made 3rd team

[What The DevilParticipant]

 I don’t exactly know why, but I feel kind of upset they have Pau Gasol over LaMarcus Aldridge….

[Ghost01Participant]

What The Devil- probably because of his playoff production lol

[kevnix5Participant]

It is completely ridiculous to think Kevin Love should make the all-nba team. You can’t make these teams if you don’t atleast get close to making the playoffs. I’m a Clippers fan and I don’t think Blake Griffin should have even been considered for these teams. This is about the best players on the best teams not the guys who put up the best stats.

[aamir543Participant]

Randolph deserbed it more last year. not saying he did not this year, but I give teh nod to Klove. (20 and 15! Even Dwight doesn’t get 15!)

[Ghost01Participant]

Another thing Dwight couldnt accomplish was losing 65 games.

[CodySLCParticipant]

So let me get this right, Randolph and Aldridge were on the 3rd team but weren’t allstars what up with that?

[RUDEBOY_Participant]

Bogut made 3rd team last year and wasnt an all star…Carmelo made the All NBA Team and wasnt an all star that same year…

[Charlie SheenParticipant]

Where the fuck is Carmelo Anthony

[kobyzParticipant]

Paul Pierce should have made it!!!

[FritzParticipant]

How should Rondo should have made the third team? Chris Paul is a much better player than Rondo, plain and simple, might even be the best PG in the NBA. Ginobli posted pretty weak numbers looking back at it, but you cant put two point guards on the third team.

[immaletufinishbutParticipant]

blake got snubbed………….

[RUDEBOY_Participant]

Rondo should’ve been all league…CP3 is alot better than Rondo,But he didnt starting playing like his normal self, until after the all star break….Manu was the main reason the Spurs had the best record.He was balling from the start of the season..He deserved to be named to the team…

[kanyedabestParticipant]

CP3?? thts criminal! he didnt even average 16 a game and had his worst statistical season in his career….. wow that shows how reputation rules in the nba, just ridiculous

[mamadouParticipant]

pliz kanyedabest.

CP3 out…Lotto.

CP3 On…PO, 10 to 12 more wins, in every average team he would join.

He’s KG at the point guard position, plain and simple.

Wade was 1st team, 2nd  in the league after a rough start in a totally different team , a young coach and a poor supporting cast, give him credit, more than kobe…this year.

Horford, that’s not serious, come on 15 and 9 in a head scratchin team, give the nod to melo, he’s the master at that, and he’s 25,5 – 7,5…

Centers are gone too…

[kanyedabestParticipant]

mamadou if you beleive cp3 deserved to be on an nba team then u either wanna suck his d-ick or you your in love with his reputation. Statistically he was no where close to an nba team.. The facts are he didnt even score 16 a game had his lowest assist total and barely made the playoffs….. lol and a few more losses and they woulnt have made the playoffs they would be in the lotto, stop acting like he ran a 1st place team. He was great in the playoffs but sorry bud this is an award for the regular season and when you average 15.9 and 9.8 on 8th place team you have no buisness being on an all nba team…. get a clue

10.6   Rondo

The only thing Rondo gives you is 1.4 more assist than Paul. Which comparing what Rondo plays with and what Paul plays with doesnt impress me at all. 

Paul gives you 5 more points, can shoot threes, and shoots 30 percent better from the FT line, also turns the ball over 1.2 less times per game.

You guys keep saying Paul only scored 16 a game and Rondo only freaking scores 10. You cannot say Oh his low points per game is because he has other players to score, well if thats true than he should get more assist due to better teamates should he not? Rondo scores 10 a game mainly because he cant shoot not because of his teamates.  I understand how Paul doesn’t play for a great team, but when you guys make arguments like scoring against Paul you guys blindly avoid the discussion with Rondo.

Rondo is a great player. That being said, he cannot shoot the ball demonstated by his  57 FT Percentage.

Rondo is a better player for pieces already in place. However, this is the ALL NBA TEAM. Players with huge holes in their game such as not being able to shoot from a guard position is not good enough to make the top 3 at one of the most stacked positions in the sport. I’ll take Paul at a 90 percent season because he has no weaknesses in his game, and still has had a better season than Rondo.
