Eff the high-flying alley-oops, the full-on facials (pause), and the fact that he's currently averaging a double-double—as a member of the goddamn Clippers!Andre Miller came out in defense of Trailblazers teammate LaMarcus Aldridge last night and revealed that he doesn't think Blake Griffin deserves a slot in the 2011 NBA All-Star Game. "It's all publicity and hype," he said. "The league don't appreciate the blue-collar workers. They don't appreciate that. They make their money off the high-flyers...That's a slap in the face to [Aldridge]." Not enough ether for you yet? Okay, fine. He continued: "They are putting this guy on every ESPN highlight. Yeah, it's cool because fans want to see that, but you isolate him from his team...He ain't made nobody better." Okay, calm down, old man. You still salty about this? [via ProBasketballTalk]
