Tim Duncan
Tony Parker
Lamarcus Aldridge
Manu Ginobili
*David West (forgot he had two appearances with Hornets)
It would be nice for all four to get serious consideration but Manu is probably in his last legs and almost no chance. I can see Duncan, Parker and Aldridge getting some votes and Aldridge getting the nod because he is in his prime.

Aldridge has the best chance. I can't see more than one big getting enough votes which reduces Timmy's odds. Parker has an outside shot if he returns to form and we have a great record. But LMA would be the favorite to represent our team from past all stars. For your list you should also have West, who was a 2 time all star I think.
Obviously he'd be a first time all star but Kawhi will have a really good shot, probably almost even odds with LMA.
Can't you read the le? It says former all star.. What did you expect?
LMA has many all-star games ahead of him.
just lol at people thinking Porker has any sort of chance after the season he just had
If it was up to me I'd have:
1. Timmy
2. Aldridge
3. Parker/Ginobili
But the big 3 will probably have a reduced role next year, so I expect LMA to put up his All Star numbers and get in IMO.
He'll try to force his way in..
Not necessarily. He was a fringe all-star when he was a big fish in a small pond. If he's playing Spurs ball in which people make sacrifices, he may be less likely to become an all-star. Also, he probably only has about two years left as an 'elite' PF.
Don't see Timmy having a shot..His minutes/games are going to be babied big time this year..There is no way he should be part of double triple OT games logging +40mins in the process..Last year we dodged a bullet in the way that he didn't completely fizzle after that brutal stretch..I say it will be LMA anda healthy Kawhi getting a first nod provided we have good record going in..
Kawhi and Aldridge will be the Spurs two all-stars next season.
LMA obviously.
Out of the other 3, Duncan, Parker if he can stay healthy and get into shape, and Gibobili has no chance
"Many" was an overstatement because of his age. I expect him to make it multiple times more though. Including the next two years.
I think with all the media attention that the Spurs have been receiving this off season it may carry over to the regular season. Outside the Cavs and Warriors they may get most of the spotlight on them. If this happens more fans may be willing to vote for a multiple Spur players. I'd say Aldridge most likely a lock but hopefully Duncan and Parker can also ride that media attention into votes and possible birth. Hopefully Kawhi can also have a great season and finally make it to the All Star game if not by fans then maybe coaches.
smh sadly that is probably true
btw OP pretty sure West has a couple all-star nods under his belt too, him and Manu will be better players for the team than Enrique imo
IMO, # of Spurs all-stars are likely to be relational to their record. If they're by and far the best team at the break, they can and likely will get at least two all-stars. If they're back with the pack, it'll be more of an individual numbers game.
but he's a top 5 PG, and he can do whatever he want..
I'm from France don't insult my nationality..TP for life.![]()
I don't know why you even consider Manu on this list. If Manu didn't get considered for AS when he was really good there's no chance at all he'll make it this season. Besides I don't even see him playing many games this season. The other three guys have a shot. LA, TD, and TP all have a shot and we can't forget Kawhi.
If the Spurs have the far and away the league's best record at the all-star break I could see several Spurs representing similar to the Hawks situation this last season. I'd love to see Parker come back strong this year and make a run at it...would be good for the Spurs if he was able to somehow come back to form.
Agree. The Spurs will probably have no starters, but 2 or 3 will be voted in by the coaches. The West is so deep, and full of "popular" players.
I know it will never happen, but it would be cool to see Tim, Tony and Manu in an all-star game together.
LMA obviously, but I think Parker has a good chance as well. Tim and Manu won't be getting enough minutes.
All in all I'd say:
1) LMA
2) Kawhi
3) Parker
His game is not dependent on athleticism. He is about to play with and learn from Duncan, an elite 39 yr old. Plus, his shot is much better than Duncans. In a system like the spurs, I don't see why he wouldn't be elite a few more years.
What's the evidence against it? Besides whataburger and tacos..
LMA and Kawhi are the only one who have real chances. Tim will play less minutes with the adittion of West an LMA.
