The 2015 NBA All-Star reserves have been announced. There’s a bunch of new faces, and of course the snubs. Take a look at the reserve rosters. The Atlanta Hawks landed 3 players from their squad

WESTERN CONFERENCE

Guard: James Harden, Houston Rockets, 3rd selection

Guard: Klay Thompson, Golden State Warriors, 1st selection

First and foremost, the NBA needs to up the rosters to 15 just like the team rosters in regular season. There are more teams now, so it seems like a necessary change. So who missed out?

Sacramento Kings center DeMarcus Cousins, Blazers Damian  Lillard – although I can see him taking Kobe’s slot – the Memphis duo of Zach Randolph and Mike Conley, Dallas’ Dirk Nowitzki and Monta Ellis, Houston’s Dwight Howard – that had to sting, San Antonio’s Kawhi Leonard and the Clippers’ DeAndre Jordan.

In the East, Atlanta’s Kyle Korver,  Cleveland’s Kevin Love, Detroit’s Brandon Jennings, and Milwaukee’s Brandon Knight.
