Dame is a lock. 30-6-5 on great percentages and efficiency on a playoff team? Couldn't be any more of a lock.
The NBA needs to stop letting fans vote for players playing in the all Star game. Instead they should let the fans vote on who does the drunk contest, three point shoot out, skills challenge and horse.
The problem is no matter who does the voting it will always be a popularity contest. The players, coaches, fans, they’ll all vote for who they like rather then who’s the best especially if they have “tough” calls to make.
the only way Lillard is a lock is if they do away with how many come from each conference and do a "top 24" of the league. i mean, they already had team captains that draft. no east vs west any more. i could see them doing that in the near future.
they need to do away with fan voting, period. i mean, when you have Pachulia almost be a starter, there is something wrong with the system.
Is Nurkic in the conversation now? As far as frontcourt players go, there’s Jokic, AD, Durant, and LeBron. So if there are 2 or 3 more, here are your choices: Steven Adams Tobias Harris Marc Gasol LaMarcus Aldridge Nurkic Rudy Gobert KAT Capela Draymond Bjelica Ayton Gobert would be lock if Jazz were better. Green has reputation on his side. Grizzlies and Wolves have fallen off. I’m thinking Gobert, Nurkic, and Aldridge. It will really depend on records in a few weeks from now. If we are top 3 seed, Nurk is in.
We're only a few games from the top spot. A 10 game winning streak could get us there. Would likely get us into the top 3... And of Nurk can keep this level of play up (and we keep taking advantage of it) we're going to be tough.
I'm just saying, if by the time they select reserves we're still in 7th or 8th, we're not getting more than one All-Star.
You've forgotten about Paul George, who is also a lock for a frontcourt spot, so thats 5. And I would think that Tobias Harris would likely be favored over Nurkic for the next one.
If we get and all star it will be Dame. Green don't deserve being all star he having a terrible season. I don't think Klay also don't deserve it either. Curry Durant LeBron Harden Davis Jokic Dame Aldridge George Adams Harris This guys are the ones deserve being in the all star right now. This could change and if Nurk continue to play like he doing now he could easily replaced Adams. The reason I say Adams I don't think OKC would be where there are in the standing without him.
I also be only got 11 players too. Just not sure who that 4 guard would be. Possibly Westbrook it could be Klay that I don't think he deserves it but again the game is for the fans.
