Chris Kaman to Play in All-Star Game

Posted by TheCalmInsanity under TCN Blog

Per ESPN:

Chris Kaman, 2010 All-Star

Chris Kaman, 2010 All-Star.

Chris Kaman was named to replace Brandon Roy this year for the All-Star game- who was out with an injured hamstring and decided to skip this year’s All-Star game. Chris Kaman is averaging 20.2 points, 9 rebounds, and 1.9 assists- while having an EFF of +20.50. This will be Chris Kaman’s first career All-Star game appearance. Although Kaman had a chance to be a reserve for the All-Star game, he was snubbed by Pau Gasol who had barely played for the whole season due to injuries. After he found out he was snubbed, he got injured and was snubbed again (perhaps because of his injury?) when Chris Paul got injured and decided not to play in the All-Star game. David Stern chooses the injury replacements, and for Chris Paul he chose Chauncey Billups of the Denver Nuggets- who is having yet another spectacular season. This second injury, Brandon Roy, finally catapulted Kaman to All-Star status.

Kim Hughes- new coach

Alright guys, I’ll be brutally honest but I’m not going to bother looking up stats and stuff for this game. I’m very tired from a long day and still have lots of work to do, this Clipper game really set me back. That being said- I’ll still give you an analysis of the game. I’ll recap what went wrong, what actions should be taken to improve, and the positives we can take from this game. I like Kim Hughes’ style, although tonight it drove me crazy. However- I do see potential, at least until the end of this season. Until then, I’ll be rooting for him to get the team clicking. (Keep reading)
