It just doesn't make sense

The reserves for the NBA All-Star game were recently announced and on the list for the Western Conference are three names you may recognize...

Amare Stoudamire
Shaun Marion
Steve Nash

Yes, all three are from the Phoenix Suns. No, I'm not a Suns fan. Heck I'm not even an NBA fan and I actually actively boycott it. I do hear information and see highlights on SportsCenter and other local news, though, and I know this - there's NO WAY Steve Nash should be a reserve on the Western Conference All-Star team.

He should be a starter.

In fact, he should have been the first point guard in the entire league selected. How the heck can the two-time running MVP of the league (and one of the top two candidates for the award this year) be a BENCHWARMER???

Ugh. The NBA is retarded enough...evidently the voters are, too.

(Note: the voters for the four major sports are generally retarded when it comes to the all-star games, not just for the NBA. This particular oversight or "snub" if that's what you can call it just seems particularly silly)
