    This is usually very very difficult out West but with Klay, Curry, and KD out of the picture, spots have opened up. I've thought it through and this is how I think it will shake down based on what we know now. As the season progresses, we can go through and make changes.

    This is who I think will make it in February, not who I'd vote for now.

    West:

    Harden
    Doncic
    LeBron
    AD
    Mitchell
    KAT
    Jokic
    Kawhi
    PG13
    Lillard
    Melo
    Booker (or Wiggins or Westbrook or Whiteside)

    East:

    It's actually hard to come up with 12 but....

    Siakam
    Dinwiddie
    Giannis
    Butler
    Embiid
    Kemba
    Brogdon
    Tristan Thompson
    Trae
    Simmons
    Beal
    Tatum

    The ASG is a joke but I'll watch if Dame and Melo make it.

    Then why hasn't Jeremy Lin ever made an All Star team? And why hasn't Harden ever been 1st in All Star votes? Of course, it doesn't matter now anyway because fan vote doesn't completely determine the starters anymore. The media (and players?) have a say.

    I think Dame will be our one and only all star. The coaches didn't want Melo on their regular teams' so I don't think he'll get an all star nod.

    Putting melo in after having 3 good games makes it invalid.

    Starting to wonder if Jokic will make the All Star team or that Denver will be any good this year. Sure they're 13-5 but the Grizzlies were 12-5 last year and we all know how that turned out. After a stellar playoffs, Jokic has sort of been awful this season. I personally think Whiteside (24 PER) should make it over Jokic (18 PER). Yeah, yeah, we're 9-13 but with the schedule we have coming up, our record will be Top 6 in West by the time All Stars are selected.

    No way we have two all stars without being in the top 2 in the west. Which isn't going to happen haha

    If PER is that important then Harrell should make it over Whiteside.

    CJ could probably sneak over Devin Booker. Especially if the Suns fall out of the playoff race by February

    He won’t.

    Drummond has to comfortably make it in the East. I was going to challenge TT but he actually has a shot.

    Do not see us getting two all stars with a sub 500 record.

    Anyone else see that Westbrick is taking over 5 3's a game and only hitting 22%? Thought he was supposed to work on that this offseason?

    We won’t have a sub 500 record when these are chosen.
