I bolded the ones I think will be All-Stars:Rashard McCantsRyan GomesTony AllenPrimo BrezecMehmet OkurBen GordonAndres NocioniTroy MurphyLuther HeadQuinton RossLuke WaltonHakim WarrickWayne SimienMarcus BanksAntoine WrightJ.R. SmithDarko MilicicTrevor ArizaKevin MartinFrancisco GarciaNick CollisonRobert SwiftDevin Brown... OK I lied, I didn't bold anyone. I really don't see anyone on this list being an All-Star. The only one I can picture is Okur, and even then it's iffy. There are a lot of players on this list who are/will be very solid players, but I don't see any wearing an All-Star uniform.
No, Okur will be overlooked because he played for the Utah Jazz. I doubt he has a high ceiling either..
On that list I'd say Rashard and Banks have the best chance at becoming all stars just because of their potential. Gordon's almost hit the roof IMO.

Players like that generally stay about the same skill level their whole career.
Dude this list is horrible no offense. I mean just browsing through the list half of the names I saw won't come close. The only two i could see making it is Ben Gordon and maybe Nocioni. Most of these players have no fans at all and its pathetic but you do basically need a lot of fans to make the all star game. Its not like eveyone who deserves it gets in. Thats why I doubt Okur makes and actually its probably the same w/ Nocioni. I bet Gordon will but other than him no one on the list will.
They might not have any fans yet because most of the players I listed where pretty new to the league. + Lakaboy what are you talking about "I just don't see him getting any better. Players like that generally stay about the same skill level their whole career" Players Like what Gordon had a pretty solid first two years. His PPG went up 2 points 15- 16.9. 3point percentage went up. AssistPG went up. and TOpg slightly went down. He's already better than he was. And if players Skill Level Stayed the same the NBA would just be alot of Veterans playing like rookies. There's no way to not get better if you're going to practice and playing 81 games per seson on average like Gordon is.
