Who makes the Rookie/Sophomore game? Oops...Batum should be there too but I doubt he makes it. damn, lots of rooks
Rudy and Greg will be there. Bayless and Batum are tough to call. If Bayless has a few more games like last night, he might get in.
Each team only gets nine players. Oden will probably make it on hype alone. Possibly Rudy, but that's it. There are just too many good rookies this year - especially at the guard position. There aren't any LeBrons or Kobes in this class, but a lot of players that will be future all-stars. Here's my rookie team roster (in no particular order): Rose Mayo Westbrook B. Lopez Beasley Oden M. Gasol Rudy And, one of: Gordon Chalmers Augustin Love BNM
There is a pretty good rookie class out there this season. Batumshockalocka and Bayless have the talent to go, but they just haven't played the minutes. I think DJ Augustin should play. I've been impressed.
Yeah, I don't think Bayless has a shot over other guys who have played all season. BNM's rookie squad looks good to me. My sophomore squad would be: Durant J. Green Horford Hawes Thaddeus Young Stuckey Wilson Chandler Conley Scola Other candidates: Aaron Brooks Daequan Cook Nick Young Al Thornton Jamario Moon
Rudy should be there, Greg will go, even if statistically he is only the 3rd best center of his rookie class. I don't think Batum or Bayless will. It is a hell of a rookie class though. I actually think the rookies will win this game.
Just having two rookies in the game reflects how well KP is at drafting talent. The fact that we have FOUR rookies who are talented enough to play in this game is absolutely amazing.
No offense, bro, but a player like Aaron Brooks, Al Thorton and even Nick Young have really been playing a lot better than someone like Conley. But its a very good list overall.
If it were judged simply on season-long performance, Rudy and Batum are in like Flint, and that's all folks!
No offense taken. That's why I mentioned the other kids. And Conley was with the rookie squad last year. There's only nine spots.
