What's wrong with Booker?

[CardsSunsDbacks]

Why do people find Kardashians so attractive? To me they look to plastic surgery type especially kim.... and there attitude ugh

Kardashians maybe, but Kendall Jenner is very good looking and looks like a real person, lol.

i think Doncic is solidly slotted as a SF. Ja Morant might be the only other player who I wouldn’t be totally pissed if he got in over Booker. He’s having another very good season, on an injury riddled team that he’s pretty much single handedly kept in the playoff chase. Jamal Murray isn’t having a great season and neither are the Nuggets so I’d give Book the nod over him.

I only put that because the NBA seems to think he's a guard, as he's part of the guard voting for the All Star Game.

Bro the eyes are spaced too far apart, once you see you can't unsee it

Doncic is a guard as so is George (this year). Both are having better seasons than Book.

Book should’ve been an all star over Westbrook without the injury stipulation last season.

bith of those guys are guards? Book doesn’t get in then.

gotcha. I think this is pretty dumb on the NBA's part. Does that mean that Scottie Pippen would have been a guard in today's All-Star game formula? Or LeBron back in his Cleveland days?

 

[JCSunsfan]

If Doncic is considered a guard, you have to include him.

He's a forward and his team is not doing well.

Not according to the NBA and he's one of those stars who is record-resistant.

If Booker had been putting of Doncic-numbers he would’ve been an all star earlier despite not winning.

yup.

You are right. Doncic is considered a guard in All-Star voting.

So it’s now just divvied up as frontcourt and backcourt? Interesting.

based on those lists, if Devin and the Suns keep playing well, I think he’s one of the 12 guys from the West who gets in. Top 6 from each back and front court make sense.

 

[GatorAZ]

McCollum is having a better year to this point than Booker. Luka is getting in cause he’s Luka, Mitchell b/c the Jazz are having a great season. Lillard and Curry are locks.

It’s going to come down to George and Booker. A few weeks ago I thought Book would be out but it’s close now.

It makes sense but I don't know if it breaks that way.

C.J. McCollum is out injured for at least four weeks so Booker deserves it over him.

I’m just looking at the top 12 guys, IMO. Just happens to break down 6 and 6. But I didn’t realize how monster of a year CJ was having.

and if I’m being totally honest, you could prob make a stronger case for CP3 to get in over Book right now.

That’s big. George is currently out as well.

The ESPN plug is going to help Booker considerably. The reason he's been pooped on for so many years is because of obscurity. Attention and positive pub is a good thing.

In the end, it's a popularity contest, which is why Yao Ming got so many undeserving AS starts.

My opinion that we should take away the fan vote remains. Us fans are dumb and biased on many levels.

I've never agreed with letting the fan vote decide. And that's even more important in today's game because contracts can be impacted by the vote. But my issue isn't the "dumb" part, it's simply that many fans (most fans?) do not vote. The idea that one fan voting a thousand times has anything to do with the fans getting to see who they want is absurd. And yes, we're all biased for our own players except for the occasional fan that goes the other way.

We agree the top six players from frontcourt and guards from each conference sounds right.

I think Booker deserves it but I can see Paul deserving it as well.

I think only for certain kinds of basketball purists that have a more complex view of the game.
