Dwyane Wade to skip All-Star Game

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.

If Korver makes it, i want see all four Hawks in together with LeBron so we can see if LeBron can "fit in"

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.
