Steven Adams

[Tim Duncan]

==> Player Vote Rankings for Western Conference All-Star Front Court:

1. LeBron James
2. Anthony Davis
3. Kawhi Leonard
4. Nikola Jokic
5. Paul George
6. Brandon Ingram
7. Carmelo Anthony (seems like a legacy/respect thing here)
8. LaMarcus Aldridge
9. Steven Adams
9. Rudy Gobert
11. Kristaps Porzingis
12. Bojan Bogdanovic 
13. Karl Anthony Towns
14. Montrezl Harrell
14. Jaren Jackson Jr
16. Kelly Oubre Jr
17. Danilo Gallinari
18. Draymond Green


Take out the respect/legacy Carmelo votes and Adams is tied at 8th with Rudy Gobert, and ahead of KAT, Kristaps, Draymond...Seems like he quite literally is a border-line All-Star.[/quote]





Player votes for the All Star game is not a legitimate argument at all imo

It's not really an important piece to the conversation, but Josh mentioned we're treating him as a borderline All-Star and he, in fact, was a borderline All-Star this year. I just used the player vote rankings because I feel like players understand each other's impacts to the game better.

I dont feel like Adams was a borderline All Star this year and i dont think those player votes help make the argument that he was a borderline all star this year.

You voted an 85 for Drummond and said Adams and Capela are both better players than Drummond. 

I know people don't like pointing out other threads, but it's important to highlight the lack of consistency. Which it's hard to be, I'm guilty of it too for sure
