    I voted for Sengun. Only because he had a good yr last yr and normally these awards and accolades are based upon what you've done the previous yr.

    HOWEVER, I think Jalen is deserving, as well and I think at this point he is our best player.

    And I'm curious to see just how much of an impact Amen has on Jalen and vice versa. Jalen has never played with another athletic wing

    LOL what in the hell did i just read. You pride yourself in being measured?? Your entire schtick on here is being an obnoxious ass to anyone who doesn't think Jalen is a god.

    It was a joke. I was going to go with Reed Sheppard but I thought some people would think I was serious, so I went with Holiday because I thought that was a suggestion so ridiculous that it would be apparent to all that I was joking.

    As for this:

    "Its obvious you have a hard time with measured criticism of Green"

    I don't know where this came from, but ok. Sure. Ok.

    I don't believe that there is a human being on the planet without an agenda that genuinely and honestly believes this to be the case. Like are there OKC fans who think dort is their best player? Or Nuggets fans who think Braun is their best player? Maybe there are and i just don't see it because i don't follow those teams.

    If the concept of “Ime telling kids to quit b****ing and keep playing hard” could make an allstar game…

    You thinking that I attack anyone who doesn't believe Jalen is God is exactly proving my point that you cannot actually debate the content I type and just strawman.

    It's part of the delusion, I'm sure in his mind he's "measured" in his worship of Jalen because he only prays to him twice a day and he allows Jalen heretics to live.

    You literally called the guy a homeless schizophrenic and you've said stuff along those lines MANY times. You didn't used to do that actually, idk why it started.

    Because I thought he was serious when he said Holiday is more deserving. You think Holiday is god?

    You can still be decent towards people, even if they disagree with you. It won't kill you i promise.

    You'll have to give me an example of what you mean by portray your arguments accurately but ya, there's no need to be an ass to everyone who disagrees with you.

    While I appreciate some of his legitimate improvements, Jalen is definitely not an all-star at this point in his career.

    I can see arguments (pro and con) for whether Sengun or Amen should make it.

    Saying I lash out at anyone who doesn't believe Green is a "god". Maybe elaborate on what you mean by "God"? Like superstar? Goat? Good young player that is struggling with consistency with a high ceiling?

    Maybe if you eloborate on what you mean by "God" I am willing to concede you aren't strawmanning.

    So Aaron Holiday is the threshold criteria for "God". Got it.
