Your success in that draft would be random too, just like it is during collegiate drafts. |

Add Oladipo to the growing list of players better than Paul George. |

We aren’t seeing that guy again |

You’re thinking too much of pre injury PG. We aren’t seeing that guy again Farvio you may want to take a closer look. George is a superior defender and shooter. Shooting about 43 to 44 % from 3 and giving you close to Butler numbers as a 2nd option that they don't run plays for. He is playing with the league's leading ball stopper and still giving you about 21 per game. He hasn't been that bad and is beginning to turn it on. He basically has reinvented himself as a catch and shoot because he is playing with Westbrook. Butler has had a slightly better year to date but they are a little closer than you might think. |

He wasn't better last year even when he was the primary option. I like PG13 a lot but he always leaves you wanting more. |

I saw something where he came to Billy Donovan shortly after the trade and essentially told him that he didn't need to run any sets for him. Told Donovan that he knew how to get his in the flow. Don't worry it. Rare to see a guy do that in today's game. Usually see guys tell the coach that they need more "isos" called for them. |

I want a guy like Marshmelo or Westbrook who are selfish. |

Congrats to Buckets. He deserved to make the team. No doubt about it. I had Kat to make it but too but his wasn't a slam dunk. Jimmy Butler was a no doubter for about the past 6-8 weeks. I didn't have him making it in the West. |

It’s insane how loaded the Western conference is. You could pretty much make a weak second all star team from the snubs. Starters Chris Paul Lou Williams Paul George Blake Griffin Marc Gasol Bench Devin Booker CJ McCollum Donovan Mitchell Nikola Jokic Clint Capela Tyreke Evans Stephen Adams After typing this out I guess it’s not quite an entire team

So much for Butler only making it due to the weaker Eastern Conference. lol |

All injured for a great part of the year . We could make excuses but we're bigger than that

LaMarcus Aldridge got a little fucked this year. He’s been better than Cousins and AD this year. His team is better despite not having a teammate even close to as good as either of those guys. Shameful. |

Interesting note I just read - first time since 2009 the Bulls haven’t had an All Star on the team. I guess it hasn’t been quite as bad as guys like vegan say the past 6-7 years. |

I swear I'm not hating on Embiid when i ask this... but ltg, if you were Embiid's teammate, a guy like Covington, would you be annoyed that he's playing in an exhibition All Star game but can't even get cleared to play back to back games yet? I honestly think I would. |

George really should be on the team over Green this year. Green's in the team purely on reputation rather than how he's been playing. I think a good argument could be made for Paul over Klay as well, but at least Klay's been having a good season and Paul's missed so many games. |

Draymond is having just as good of a season as last year, if not better. If you had to remove one Warrior, it should be Thompson. |
