    Let's just pick the top 24 ranked EPM players.

    Why bother voting when we have catch all stats that do the work for us?

    I think there's requirements for backcourt/frontcourt so top 24 wouldn't work.

    Why not have 15 spots like the regular season for this clown show of a game.

    The All-Star game is a complete joke and I quit watching it like 15 years ago. It's a shame what the league has turned into over the All-Star break. They ruined it.

    Nah been that way for like 3 or so years now. If I recall correctly, it was because of that year when Wiggins became a starter cause some Kpop guy told his fans to vote for him. The player votes only affect starters though. Reserves are still up to the coaches.

    I just checked there are atleast 8 guards and atleast 12 frontcourt players in the top 24 EPM. It meets all requirements.

    Do some of the true elite top 24 EPM players like Ty Jerome and Ivica Zubac fall under their respective positions or do they count as wild cards?

    Jerome wouldn't qualify minutes wise but Zubac has been awesome, could do front court or wild card

    Yeah I don’t think Jalen nor alpi will be selected and that’s fine, they should take it personal

    I don't think there's a minutes requirement for the AS game. But, your comment did remind me there are a few of the top 24 players that couldn't play due to injury.

    So, we'd end up a few slots lower on the list and be able to add superstar Goga Bitadze.

    I feel like we should at least get one in for our record alone.

    Amen dunks by far the most on the Rockets. More than the next two (Jalen and Alpi) combined.
