<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>For the second week this season, Richard Jefferson was one of the nominees for Eastern Conference Player of the Week, an honor that went to the only player in the East with a higher scoring average: Lebron James. Jefferson is reaching new heights for scoring average as well as three point percentage and is leading the league in free throws. An All-Star bid could be next.</p> -netsdaily.com</div></p> LeBron James, Tony Parker Earn Weekly Honors</p> The book on New Jersey's Richard Jefferson</p>
dam that lebron james guy. hopefully this is the year RJ gets the respect thrown back his way and gets in the ASG. RJ is the ultimate teammate and it would be great for RJ to win some individual achievements once in a while.</p>
It's going to be all up to the coaches picking him to get there. If he can keep playing at this level and putting up these numbers, he's got a chance.</p>
It won't be easy.</p> LeBron and Garnett are locks.</p> Pierce and Rashard Lewis are very likely to make it.</p> RJ is in a group with Butler, Jamison and Bosh.</p> Guys like Granger, Gerald Wallace, Luol Deng and Josh Smith are probably behind them.</p> Then there is Zach Randolph, who still has time to put up big numbers to make a run.</p> If the voting were today, RJ would be in, though.</p> Keep it up RJ!</p>
Now...if you had to choose, which Net would you put in the All-Star game:</p> Vince all healthy, Kidd, or Jefferson?</p> That'd be a tough choice for me.</p>
I'd go Jefferson because he's never been.</p> Then Kidd because he's always deserving.</p> Vince won't get my vote because he doesn't need it. He's a brand-name when it comes to fan voters by now</p>
I would not vote for Richard Jefferson.</p> Just because a player has one or two good months at the beginning of the season does not make one an all-star. In my mind, a player has to have one all-star worthy year, and then be playing at an all-star level when I vote the next year to be deserving.</p> Otherwise, a player could be a perennial hot starter and quick fader,finish withaverage stats every year, but be a consistent all-star. That's not right. It's actually easier to envision in baseball, when certain players seem to get off to hot starts every year but fade in the second half.</p> If Richard averages 24 points per game for the season, and gets off to a good start NEXT year, then he should play. But not before.</p>
