Metta World Peace Blog: Consolation for the Snubbed Damian Lillard

Damian Lillard was not picked to be in the NBA All-Star game.
You are a Ball Star Damian, they forgot to add the B to the list. Don’t think of it in a way where you were left out, because that’s not what being an All Star means. You will have the chance to come back next year. DeMarcus Cousins was chosen because Kobe Bryant became injured, and it’s situations like that where we have to support each other.
There is no deficiency of All Stars in the league, so you keep being you. We all respect that about you.
