    Which Rocket player, other than Harden, has the best chance of being selected to an all-star game at some point in their career?

    Probably Lin because he's Chinese.

    Or Parsons.

    All-star by merit or popularity?

    Lin has the Asian population.

    Parsons has the Twilight population.

    Game on.

    Lin because he's Asian.

    But DMo has a chance to be the better player

    Lin because of popularity. Not dissing him he is becoming a great player, but there are a bunch of good guards in the west.

    By skill it would have to be asik. Center is weak right now.

    Parsons is a great player but he is nowhere near durant and Denver itself has 2 possibly 3 as talented if not more talented 3s than him.

    Perhaps dmo or trob can break away in the next few seasons also.

    Delfino is useless when he's not making 3s.

    I'm going with Omer.

    Jamaal Magloire once made the all-star team, averaging 13-10. Omer has the potential to improve, though they've done away with his position.

    I think people will begin to increasingly respect what he brings to the table, and could see him making it if he were averaging something like 14-12.

    I say Omer Asik. :)

    It really is a mystery as to why he rebounds the ball so well yet he fumbles the ball when it is passed to him.
