Brook Lopez Deserving of All Star

Due to Rajon Rondo tearing his ACL, the Eastern Conference All-Stars had 1 open spot that needed to be filled. They got it right by choosing Brook Lopez. Brook has quickly become my favorite Brooklyn Net. He has been absolutely phenomenal this year. He is averaging 18.6 points and 7.3 rebounds per game. Those numbers are unbelievable. The Nets not getting Dwight Howard was a blessing in disguise. He has really come into his own this season. At the age of only 24, he still was so much room to improve. It is scary to think of how good Brook can be. I'm glad the NBA got it right and chose him to represent the Nets in the All-Star game. So I'll end this post with a fun fact; no team has ever won the NBA Championship without having an All-Star that season. The only time was in 1999 when there was no ASG because of the lockout.
