Getting benched, fight with Tony Allen, now steroids...
This is somewhat true, but the coach has a lot to do with it as well.
Even though he's having a bad season, you don't ignore what he did the first 2 seasons being our most consistent player. Conley has 3 bad seasons, a good pre-season, a good first 8-10 games and gets an extension. Its unfortunate what's going on, but that's why he does need to leave Memphis. Its either him or the coach and I have a feeling Heisley will pick the coach.

I'm fine with trading him, but if we get @@#% for him, we will be better off keeping him around. Now, OJ losing value is his fault. The minutes he gets, he should be making around 46-47% of his shots. Instead, he's shooting 40% from the field.

You are so damn stupid if you think Kevin Love's popularity>Yao's

you must be in your menstrual cycle to be catching feelings and insulting me like that. be easy man, we can discuss opinions like grown folk without being disrespectful. 
this is an all star game, not a popularity contest, you should be elected an all star based on your performance numbers, not how well known you are.

Well yes, ideally All-Star status should be based on performance. Unfortunately since the NBA has allowed the fans to pick the starters, and inevitably there will be 10 players voted in based primarily on popularity (ie, Iverson, T-Mac, Carter, Yao>Shaq, MJ in 02). And thus, voting for the All Star Game has in fact become a popularity contest. This is also how Yao became an All Star. And he probably will be for the foreseeable.....  My initial insult thrown at you was mainly because it seemed like you had no idea that the starting line up is determined by fans. So having undeserving  players starting isn't at all something out of the ordinary.

I wish Bill Walton did games more often.
