otish: Post your all star prediction roster for bragging rights

[JfizzleBlazer]

Who do you think is selected for the east and west?

 

[THE HCP]

7 black guys on both sides.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

I'm just looking to see of the 4chan stuff makes any kind of noise.

The 'White Men CAN jump' campaign of theirs.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

7 black guys on both sides.

No Marc gasol, huh?

 

[THE HCP]

No Marc gasol, huh?

I like him, but I don't think he makes it this year.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

West - tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Zach Randolph, james harden, steph curry, Russell westbrook, lamarcus Aldridge

East - Chris bosh, Tyson Chandler, joakim Noah, Paul george, josh Smith, kyrie Irving, jrue holiday

 

[THE HCP]

^SEE! ALL BRUTHAS!

 

[Rhal]

West - Westbrook/Harden/Parker/Randolph/LMA/Curry/Duncan

East - Bosh/Irving/Noah(flip floppd between him and chandler)/Paul George/Holiday/JSmith/Dwill

I don't get the thinking coaches will vote in guards as both wildcards thing. Very unlikely 4 guards get selected out of the 7 they choose.

west:

Duncan
Lee
Randolph
LMA
Parker
Westbrook
Harden

East:

don't care

coaches will split between him and Randolph with few if any voting for both, and Randolph presumably will have a slight edge.

 

[Hobbesarable]

West:

David Lee
James Harden
Russell Westbrook
Stephen Curry
Tim Duncan
Tony Parker
Zach Randolph

West:

i don't remember the west ever ending up with 6 pure guards on the team. not in the last 10 years at least. the coaches (apparently) do consider balance when they vote for wildcards.

It recently happened with the East squad.

For the west, gotta go back 15 years. http://www.basketball-reference.com/allstar/NBA_1998.html

not because of coaches vote.

Notes•Caron Butler (East): Did not play due to injury; replaced by Ray Allen

i guess that counts. although eddie jones was a G/F at times in his career.

 

[Hobbesarable]

Ok. You may continue banging your head against the wall.

Mine had six guards but still included lma.

I was going to post my lineups, and then realized I had the same outlook as you...

I agree with your West roster, and I agree that the Eastern Conference is a joke that's not worth caring about.

I've seen projected All-Star lineups out East that have J.R. Smith on them, if that tells you how shallow the talent pool is over there...

 

[crowTrobot]

i do care if kyrie makes it in the east. becoming one of my favorite players.

I can't believe that kid only played 11 games in college!

unfortunately blazers are crashing and burning at the wrong time. feeling less confident coaches won't end up voting in both zebo and gasol.
