I hope Bev doesn't do terribly, but I'm fearful... Also, hoping that James beats out Bellinelli and Kyrie
I want Harden to at least beat Klay Thompson and / or Steph Curry. Steph because of the MVP thing, and Klay so that Harden detractors won't have that piece of ammo to use when debating who the best SG in the game is (because you know the media will expound that Klay is better than Harden if Harden gets less points than Klay.)
Can someone answer my question please? I'm betting against my friend, I picked the West. Will I win? I mean Harden/Curry will shoot lights out, no?

There's no right or wrong "answer" to your question. First off, whatever we come up with is our own opinion. Secondly, it's the ASG. No defense will be played throughout the first 3 1/2 quarters. Whoever wants to win the game, will win the game. And tbh, I don't think this type of game is suited for players like Harden, because he wants contact to draw fouls - in a game that means next to nothing, I doubt he'll want to draw contact. As a Rockets fan, I wouldn't mind if he sat more than he played. From a guy who probably shouldn't have been on the team in the first place to AS starter?

Smart move by Kerr He is playing those who deserve to start and not just based on names or previous track record You can't argue that Curry, Harden, Klay, LMA and Gasol have not been better overall than the rest of the West bench all things considered
