    That's because you don't trust what your eyes are telling you. That's why I continue to say, stats are good but they do not tell the whole story.

    They are starting to gell! And I really don't think they listen to the fans or media about whose is best, etc.

    When did Jalen become allstar level player?

    LAST YR DURING THE 11 GAME WIN STREAK. I THINK THAT PUT HIM ON THE MAP.

    With what consistency?

    ALPI AND JALEN BOTH HAS BEEN INCONSISTENT. ALPI STARTED THE FIRST 5 -6 GAMES OFF SLOW, PICKED IT UP BUT SLUMPED AGAIN. LAST NIGHT HE PLAYED WELL

    Jalen can score 80 points a game but this does not make him allstar.

    YOU'RE A HA-TER

    How can he be shooting better if his % is worse though? Doesn't that mean your eye test is wrong? If you watch a guy take 10 shots and 5, watch another guy take 10 shots and make 3, and conclude that the one who made 3 made more shots, isn't that just wrong?

    Amen has no shot this year at all star because he should be the star of the rising stars team with the new format. If wemby makes the big team who else is there? The rookie class is cheeks and it’s only miller and his twin left. I think it’s a set up for him to play well then become an all star next year. I understand that our % isn’t great for anyone on the team but with were we are we deserve an all star. Y’all act like there is a 50/40/90 requirement. Bad shooters have made it before. If we get snubbed I will blame media bias.

    Thompson does not have the raw Offensive numbers, he has to be one of the focal points and score around 18-21 ppg to be considered.

    He is worlds apart now.......you see a lot of 20 points from him but he also has tons of 9 or 10 ppg games.

    Right now he scores about as much as Jabari did 1 year ago.

    He must score as much as Jay Dub of the Thunder and Jay Dub is not even guaranteed a spot.

    It actually is very possible for defensive guys to make it in, i.e. Rudy Gobert, Marc Gasol, but they're usually rim-protecting centers, not wings. But Amen may just be as impactful defensively as those guys.

    The biggest problems for him making it in are, one, he is young and doesn't have much hype, people largely don't grasp how good he is yet. They'll understand soon enough though. And two, his minutes played are still a little low. If he were averaging an extra 6 or 7 minutes per game his volume numbers would be higher and it would be more obvious to general fans and around the league how impactful he is when on the court.

    ESPN new article just published. Kevin Pelton is predicting Sengun to make the all star team as a reserve.

    Well, let's see what the coaches decide.

    You know, the guys who double Alpi every single game.

    Bro, Sengun is in MVP rankings, what is this sillyness?
    Nobody in this league cares about Jalen.
    Sengun at 22 years old is the most doubled or trippledoubled player in this league.
    This "potential" Word is more than funny, it is stoopidness

    Alpi has been playing the same consistency for 3 years, how long Jalen shows this?
    11 games march madness , against who? And l dont remember play inn ?
    I am not a hater , but you are Alperen haters.
    Sengun and Jalen is not on the same page..
    Look l like Jalen, but comparing him with a player in MVp Ladder is funny and stoopid..
    I dont see any NBA coach doubling Jalen or concentrating on Jalen, they dont even care about Green..
    So all NBA Coaches, from Giannis to Jokic to LeBron to AD praising Sengun do not know basketball, but you idiots know?
    Accept it or not?
    Who will be allstar?
    Sengun
    Who is MVP caliber player ranking 10?
    Sengun
    I dont see the name of Green in allstar list, did l miss something?
    So, get the **** out of here..
