Lowry, on a surprising Raptors team, has been putting up career numbers (16.8 points and 7.6 assists per) but apparently hasn't done enough to warrant an All-Star vote from the NBA's coaches Every year, the fans of the NBA pick the All-Star starters while the coaches pick the All-Star reserves.

Paul (right shoulder) hasn't played for the Clippers since January 3rd The Los Angeles Clippers are 29-15 so far in this half-finished 2013-14 season, which is good enough for Doc Rivers' team to be the No. 4 seed in the Western Conference as of this moment.

With Rajon Rondo returning to the Celtics soon, Crawford became expendable. MarShon Brooks, who wasn't getting much playing time in Boston, was the same.

Gasol hasn't played since November 22nd The Memphis Grizzlies are 17-19 this season and are currently sitting in 10th place in the competitive Western Conference, just outside of the playoff picture.

Globetrotting, peacemaking Dennis Rodman is now with a team of former NBA players participating in exhibition games in North Korea. Did you really think he wouldn't say something stupid?
