    STILL ONE HOUR TO VOTE.

    Ryan Hollins said it - this should seal Alpi's trip to the all-star game.

    All Rockets fans should support our franchise player and get him to pass Kawhi.

    I too was glad to see Alpi play like an allstar tongiht. More consecutive performances like that and he will be a true all star.

    I'm not sure he will get selected as a reserve but truly a great accomplishment. Thank God Silas is not sabotaging Alpi's career anymore.

    "Wasting"? F off dude.
    "Wasting 5% of the cap"? A team that blew $128.5M on a garden gnome?
    Somebody else will give him that much if you don't.
    If you lose him, good luck attracting similar talent to this small-market bottom feeder of a team.

    Not how it works, you can’t lose him. Nobody has ever turned down a rookie max so if the rockets want him, he’s a rocket. If he makes all nba, he costs more than if he doesn’t, that’s the only difference.

    When you combine East and West rankings, he ended up being 7th. That is pretty damn good.

    Coaches should choose Sengun over AD, cause if AD is sooo good the Lakers record should be much better. Overrated MF

    Fans can be homers, but the professional media class who have a vote are in a separate category and should therefore not vote like fans of the team. No professional NBA writer with any credibility should vote for Sengun over the likes of Jokic, Durant, and Kawhi. They are objectively better players this season.

    Kawhi regrets not laughing a lot more during his illustrious career.
