Who's a #$%&! All-Star?

As we approach the 2010 All-Star break it should be noted that the Knicks' All-Star snub David Lee, who led the NBA in double-doubles last year, is currently:

Averaging more points a game than Dwight Howard (19.9 to 17.8).

Averaging almost three rebounds a game more than Amare Stoudemire (11.5 to 8.6), and is also shooting better from the field (55.8 to 55.4) and the line (79.5 to 76.5).

Has a better FG percentage (55.8 to 52.5) and FT percentage (79.5 to 78.7) than Chris Bosh.

Has better numbers in scoring (19.9 to 19.5), rebounding (11.5 to 10.7), shooting (55.8 to 52.7), free throws (79.5 to 75.7) and assists (3.5 to 3.2) than Tim Duncan.

Ditto Carlos Boozer (19.9 to 19.2; 11.5 to 10.8; 55.8 to 54.6; 79.5 to 78.6; 3.5 to 3.2).

.

Is averaging more minutes (36.9) than any of them.

.

Is a better free throw shooter (79.5) than LeBron James (77.8) and Dwyane Wade (75.5).

.

If there's any mindless fanatic left who still believes the Knicks should "upgrade" by trading Lee - who's only 26 and improving at an amazing rate - and signing somebody else, may they live happily ever after...

...in the LOoNeY BIN.
