Swap overrated Davis for Ant Edwards
Durant for Davis
and Derrick Wagner for Tatum and White for Young. Cause I prefer those guys and a few votes won’t hurt them.
Could we get a one stop shopping link in the OP?
0 chance Wemby gets in imo. Maybe if the Spurs were a couple games under .500 but all star game selection is usually based on winning especially since they changed the voting format for starters.
The Spurs clearly don't want Wemby in the ASG imo, they haven't even tweet about it
They'd rather have him rest
Since the ASG is a popularity contest, and Victor is extremely visible around the NBA, we'll see. Who would he have to beat out?
btw there's no way James doesn't make it unless he chose not to.
if its broken down as frontcourt/backcourt... he's up against Jokic, Davis, LeBron, Durant, Kawhi, George, JJJ, Markannen, Gobert, Sabonis, Sengun
West: Gilgeous-Alexander, Doncic, Jokic, James, Davis
Bench: Curry, S bag, Edwards, Towns, Booker, Durant, Fox/Sabonis
In actuality, Curry will get the fan vote over Gilgeous-Alexander and Durant over Davis.
East: Haliburton, Maxey, Embiid, Antetokounmpo, Tatum
Bench: Young/Barnes, Porzingis/White, Mitc , Adebayo, Butler, Lillard, Brunson
In actuality, a more established name will get the fan vote over Maxey and White has no chance.
Davis is the most underappreciated player of his generation and Edwards is probably the most overrated current player.
Edwards is on the SpursTalk all-underrated team for sure
I'm probably wrong, as usual, but maybe a miracle happens, and Wemby is more popular with casualfan than expected. What's the harm, after all? ASG is all about the homer vote
He'll get the all rookie team. He won't make the all star this year. Even if he had a good team around him, it's not certain his contributions would stick out enough vs the rest of the team to get the AS nod. He is fun as to watch though.
Wemby won't be an all star.
Early in the season, all the media were hyping him and creating narratives. However now into 1 quarter of the season and having the worst record in the West conference, the media has stop their coverage on Wemby and has also agreed that Chet is leading in the ROY race. What is even more amazing is that Chet would be in the contenders for DPOY too.
Wemby won't be in the all-star for sure.
Zaza almost got in at one point. Wemby will be in. A lot of people want to see the 7’4 phenom than half of those usual AS guys
What ? Public voters don’t give a about wins for All Star players, they just want a big show, and Wemby can bring that. I’m pretty confident he’ll be selected by public voters.
Holmgren isn’t ahead of him in the ROY discussion, not anymore.
Wemby will get in but not as a starter.
If he gets in, who knows, someone may throw him a lob.
That would be the best part, he’d be getting lobs every few possessions prolly lol
EAST: Giannis, Tatum, Embiid, Haliburton and Maxey
WEST: Doncic, Shai, KD, Jokic and Wemby
Yes and he didn't get in because they changed the way starters are voted in and fan vote counts for less than it used to. If it was just fan vote then I think he'd get it. But I don't see the coaches voting him in given the Spurs abysmal record
Again, fan vote weight has been reduced recently so it's not the only determining factor. Coaches won't vote him in
He’ll be in the rising stars game. He’s not resting whether he makes the all star team or not
I honestly didn't know. Id have to agree with your take in that case
Found this on Fox sports:
"NBA All-Star Game starters are selected by fans, NBA players and the media. Fan votes make up 50 percent of the vote. All current players and a select group of media representatives will account for 25 percent each. Players and media only submit one ballot"
So fan vote only accounts for half. And I guarantee the players won't vote him in
