Stuckey over Noah?

Umm, no.

I do like that Al Horford received more votes for the All-Rookie team despite being the runner-up in the Rookie of the Year voting.

I agree

I don’t understand Stuckey being there. He really didn’t make too much noise until 3/4 of the season was done. Not too sure about Green either.

Of course Stuckey

Goes out and plays quite well in a game Orlando definitely should have won. If there’s one guy I thought Detroit could never do without it was B-b-b-b-illups.

Dumars seems enamored with Stuckey

He raved about him yet again to Chad Ford in the 05/13 “Daily Dish” podcast.

Jeff Green gets a 1st team nod because he played a ton of minutes on a worthless team? Rodney Stuckey gets a spot over Noah, even though he played less minutes, and all he was doing was backing up a top 5 PG in Billups.

At first,

I didn’t think that Noah would make the rookie team because he obviously doesn’t have the numbers and the Bulls were terrible. Then I saw that Seattle had two rookies and Memphis had one. Still don’t think Noah should have made it. I can see Stuckey over Noah, but I just don’t see Green

most often

the bad teams get the teams on the all-rookie squad because they are played a lot more and are usually high draft picks. that said, i didn’t think that noah would necessarily make it because of inconsistent minutes etc. but i don’t necessarily agree with the selections, either.
