    I always knew Wiggins is good and just had bad luck with teams he was in… he is prowing this right now. BUT the same people praising him now were bashing him a year ago… so just S***!!! And yet… he should not be in first team all star… how can he be ahead of DBook, Spida, Luka, CP3, KAT… this I just can’t understand. Don’t care about rules, but this is a BIG disrespect to this players.

      Those players you mentioned are guards. Your gripe should be with steph and Ja not wiggins

    • Koh Smoger

      KAT is the only player not a guard on your list and Wiggins is simply more popular. Same deal as Yao Ming making all star starts over Shaq.

      Guys… I get the rules, its just sad that in guard heavy league they have more spots on forwards…

      He’s not and even if he were. JWs do not oppose vaccines at all

    SAS can’t talk about anyone unless he gets the producers Vax statement in lol it’s so obvious at this point lol

    Casuals on here asking why Wiggins over CP3, Booker, Luka, Spida etc. Those dudes play guard positions and Wiggins play SF. And hes been a really good small forward this season. Even if no1 voted for him Luka, Booker etc…STILL WOULD NOT BE STARTERS, it would have been another SF. Take out your disappointment on Ja Morant. If he wasnt selected maybe Luka or Booker would have been and to be fair, Ja been player better than those dudes all season.

    Congrats Wigs!

    I’ve really grown to dislike Stephen A over his vaccine take …. Grow tf up

      January 28, 2022 at 2:30 pm

      Uhm people who are unvaccinated and don’t wear masks put other people’s lives in danger and possibly death. It’s just science

    • Koh Smoger

      January 28, 2022 at 2:30 pm

      Also it’s a free country. He’s allowed to say whatever he wants

    Wiggins deserves all star birth but NO WAY a starter! NBA should revamp this whole selection process — so more deserving ppl like CP or DBook don’t get snubbed

    • huey freeman

      January 28, 2022 at 1:17 pm

      CP and book not frontcourt players

    • Koh Smoger

      January 28, 2022 at 2:24 pm

      Honestly it doesn’t matter Wiggins took greens spot. So all the players like Luka, Dmitch, dbook, cp3, gobert, KAT and Ingram will make the team.

    • Kevwe princess

      January 28, 2022 at 2:54 pm

      Wiggins is a forward both Booker and CP3 are guards, except you want to take out Ja and Curry and nobody be it fans, media or players will vote Booker or CP3 over Curry, I can it with Ja but not Curry.

    Andew Wiggins has been instrumental in helping Steph Curry lead the Warriors to the second best record in the NBA…when NOBODY had them doing this well. His contributions on offense, defense, and rebounds have been second to none in the West Conference.

  14. C. Rob

    January 28, 2022 at 12:47 pm

    I think SAS owes Wiggins an apology…just saying.

    • huey freeman

      January 28, 2022 at 1:16 pm

      For what

    • C. Rob

      January 28, 2022 at 3:54 pm

      @huey freeman Because he said he wouldn’t trade Wiggins for a box of cookies, disrespectful.

  15. Kennn

    I’m tired of people saying he’s an all star starter, I’m sorry but he’s not. Paul George, Draymond Green, Rudy Gobert and KAT impact their team more than Wiggins does. Wiggins isn’t going to make an all defensive team over those guys because they are better. KD is injuried but he will still be a starter, so should Paul George cause he’s been injuried but played great by himself

    Proud of Wiggins, former number one overall pick, eight years in the league, finally rising to the top and becoming an all-star. better late than never, literally🤷🏽‍♂️ finally established himself as one of the top 25 hoopers in the world. Congrats

  17. Some next level gaming

    January 28, 2022 at 1:12 pm

    He shouldn’t got the spot undeserving

    • Koh Smoger

      January 28, 2022 at 2:26 pm

      Uhm. He was gonna make the team they did a coaches interview

  18. feeblesaint

    January 28, 2022 at 1:40 pm

    Why tf did they add the whole vaccine propaganda into the discussion?

    AW is rich/smart enough to get a vaccine card if he didn’t want to take the shot.

    Wake up people.

    Stephen A Smith still taking a jab at kyrie 😂😂😂 he never misses an opportunity

    90% Jehovah’s Witness have taken the vaccine 💉 fyi

    Stephen A sneak disses Kyrie daily

  22. Kwesi Harrison

    January 28, 2022 at 7:14 pm

    Steven A loud and wrong again…

  23. Blair V

    January 28, 2022 at 7:37 pm

    Stephen A is incorrect. Jehovah’s Witnesses aren’t anti-vaccine. They consider whether or not to vaccinate, a personal decision. As a matter of fact, many JWs have chosen to vaccinate. Only Mr Wiggins knows why he vaccinated.

    Witnesses are not against vaccines that’s a lie..
