Although there had been signs, when Hansen was really elected as a starter, he still faced many doubts.
After all, the voting this time was significantly influenced by fan votes because of their adulation.
As the person involved, Hansen inevitably was asked about this issue during a media interview.
"Do you think the result is unfair?" The reporter's question was quite direct.
"Yes," Hansen's answer was shocking.
Just as the reporters were puzzled by Hansen's unconventional response, Hansen already spoke up discontentedly,
"Why wasn't Zack selected? His performance this season was better than Paul Gasol's, and Blake Griffin is in one of the worst teams in the West. It's unfair."
After Guy was injured, the Grizzlies' record dropped but was still the fifth in the West.
