nba all star reserves Green, Thompson picked, DeRozan

Draymond Green and Klay Thompson were picked Thursday for the Western Conference team, giving the NBA champion Golden State Warriors three All-Stars for the first time in 40 years.

Sacramento's DeMarcus Cousins, Houston's James Harden, San Antonio's LaMarcus Aldridge, the Clippers' Chris Paul and New Orleans' Anthony Davis were also chosen for the West squad for the Feb. 14 game in Toronto.

The Raptors' DeMar DeRozan will represent the home team and is joined by fellow East reserves Chicago's Jimmy Butler, Detroit's Andre Drummond, Miami's Chris Bosh, Washington's John Wall, Atlanta's Paul Millsap and Boston's Isaiah Thomas.

The reserves were selected by the head coaches in each conference, who had to vote for seven players: two guards, three frontcourt players and two additional players at any position. They were not allowed to vote for players from their own team.

On the other end, Bosh will return to his original NBA city after being chosen for his 11th consecutive All-Star Game, trailing only the Lakers' Kobe Bryant (18), Cleveland's LeBron James and Miami's Dwyane Wade (both with 12) among active players. Paul is an All-Star for the ninth straight year.

Previously voted as starters by fans in the East were James, Wade, New York's Carmelo Anthony, Indiana's Paul George and Toronto's Kyle Lowry. DeRozan joins Lowry to comprise the first starting backcourt to play an All-Star Game in their home city since the Los Angeles Lakers' Jerry West and Gail Goodrich in 1972.

San Antonio's Gregg Popovich will coach the West and Cleveland's Tyronn Lue leads the East. If a starter is injured, they would select the replacement in the lineup. In other words, you can not go around trading runes as they are placed on random cards for everyone.If you are looking for any Cheap NBA 2K16 MT Coins, please use coupon “NBA16” to enjoy VIP discount 5% off on Buynba2kmt.com.
