      I don't think either player was snubbed.

      Those are all quality selections.

        It came down to Lillard in my opinion (the other 5 guards were pretty much a lock).. and Portland had a fantastic year. So can't really complain too much.

          I'm amazed Lowry got so few votes. The majority of experts I've read had him making third team.

          MU might have just been saved a couple million though...

            Really? I would think Lillard's more of a lock than Dragic.

            But I also don't feel like the Raps got snubbed.

            Happy Jefferson made it somewhere, and that Hibbert didn't.

              Portland had Aldridge.. Phoenix had nobody but Dragic (Bledsoe hardly played). I thought Dragic deserved it more.

                Disagree with Dragic being there. Give me Lowry or DeRozan in that spot over him.

                  Pretty much this. Lowry was snubbed of all-defensive teams also.
                  Myself (March 2014):
                  The raptors are a tremendous young team and will win a championship in the following five years.

                    I would've been ok with Conley or maybe even George Hill over Lowry, but not Beverley.

                      Speaking as a Raptor fan, sure, I can see it.

                      Speaking as impartial as possible, I can't see it.

                      Dragic took a team that was supposedly tanking to 48 wins, one win out of playoffs in the West, with a first year coach. The second best player, Bledsoe, missed 39 games. I'm looking through their roster and it really is incredible.

                      I don't think there is any question of 3rd team All-NBA. The real question is should he be swapped with Tony Parker for 2nd team, in my opinion.

                      Maybe there is a case for Lowry over Parker.

                        Only issue I have with Beverly is he only played 56 games. You put him at 75+ games and I don't have an issue.

                          Noah is overrated

                            Yeah. I'd still rather see him than Conley, Conley just hasn't been at his best defensively this year.

                            Avery Bradley should've made it, though. It's Bradley, then it's either Lowry or Rubio, IMO.

                              If it were actually broken down to individual positions then maybe I'd consider Derozan snubbed, but I cannot really argue with the guard selections as they are, although Parker and Dragic should probably be swapped.
