    It's got to go to Knight. Doesn't Korver average like 12 points a game? I'm sorry but that's no all star, regardless of shooting percentages.

    It should be Brandon Knight, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's Korver.

    Korver is officially IN. The East really sucks. His percentages are great ... but 13 ppg is just not enough volume.

    Think about it like a Joakim Noah selection. Noah is an 11/11 player that has a HUGE presence on the court. Or at least the last few seasons excluding this one.

    Kyle Korver is a 12ppg player that only takes 8 shots a game but is having a 50/50/90 season. He moves 3 feet to the side and he automatically has two players focusing on him because they know he's lethal. What happens after that? Millsap or Horford get a little bit more room to operate and score.

    He doesn't have to touch the ball to make a huge impact on the floor. Him on the court is already a huge impact on the court.
