Earlier tonight, the NBA All-Star Game reserves were announced, as selected by the coaches.

Eastern Conference:

Chicago Bulls – Luol Deng

Chicago Bulls – Joakim Noah

Cleveland Cavaliers – Kyrie Irving

Indiana Pacers – Paul George

Miami Heat – Chris Bosh

New York Knicks – Tyson Chandler

Philadelphia 76ers – Jrue Holliday

Western Conference:

Golden State Warriors – David Lee

Houston Rockets – James Harden

Memphis Grizzlies – Zach Randolph

Oklahoma City – Russell Westbrook

Portland Trail Blazers – LaMarcus Aldridge

San Antonio Spurs – Tony Parker

San Antonio Spurs – Tim Duncan

As always, there will be disputes about which players were snubbed, or didn’t deserve to make it. Both Paul Pierce and Brook Lopez in the East and Steph Curry and Marc Gasol in the West have valid cases to be included.

Regardless of possible snubs, both teams are loaded with talent, and should put on a great show at All-Star Weekend.
