i know this sounds ridiculous but it sucks that his PPG/RPG numbers will take a major hit if he's really only going to play like 10 or 15 minutes.
not that it really matters in the grand scheme of things but to people that don't pay attention and just look at numbers, it could really hurt his All-Star bid
And DMC being an All-Star is one of the few happy possibilities left in this season
I really doubt if people voting for all-stars don't know who DMC is. I also doubt if they're voting based on numbers. They're voting based on team loyalty, player loyalty or player recognition.
