Do you watch basketball? Bam is a clear AS.

I would advise you to watch basketball instead of basing shit simply on name.

You want to know something funny? BAM would make the AS over Booker even if the Suns were in the East.

He was a slam dunk lock to make the AS game. Only idiots like you who don't really watch the name doesn't think Bam shouldn't be in the name
Deandre Ayton puts up better numbers than Adebayo in less minutes.

Booker deserves to be in for sure

The only person you can debate putting him ahead would be Ingram. No way in hell he deserves to be there over any of the other 6.

We also need to stop acting like Ingram is some bum.

Ingram is having a great year. Maybe booker deserves it over Paul.

Once again, do you actually watch basketball?

I don't have time to argue with people who look at stats and think that determine the better player. Basketball isn't only about scoring.

Someone is always snubbed. Just part of the process

You probably haven’t watched a Suns game months. I doubt you’ve even seen Ayton since his return.

Ayton is better in multiple categories btw.

Ingram is having a great year. Maybe booker deserves it over Paul.

Have to remember how the process is determined.

2 guards, 3 front court players, and 2 wild cards. Also, the coaches value winning a lot.

If I had to take a guess, i bet it went like this.

G- Dame
G- Lilliard
Front Court- Jokic
Front Court- Gobert
Front Court- Ingram
Wild Card- Paul
Wild Card- Mitchell

So the question here is the following if you're a Booker supporter/don't think Ingram deserved it.

1) Is there another forward that deserved it over Ingram? Not that I can think of

2) Are you selecting Booker over Paul or Mitchell? OKC is one of biggest surprise stories and Utah is 32-15. Not going to select a player on a 20-27 team over either.

Booker and Ayton are sooo good but the Suns are going to end up with a losing record AGAIN

exactly. This year I think the coaches did a great job. There aren't just 24 AS in the league. Probably closer to 30 but this year the "snubs" aren't as bad as previous years.

I never said Ayton was “sooo good” I said he is putting up better numbers and a “slam dunk Eastern All Star”.

scoring is not the only part of basketball.

It helps to watch the games

Guess Trae Young is the 3rd best player in basketball

Don't think there is 1 person who isn't a biased Suns fan that would say Ayton is having a better season than Bam. Helping your team win games matters

Be honest, you just now looked up Ayton’s numbers. You thought they were way worse than they are.

Not rocket science but usually if you attempt 4 more shots per game than someone, you should avg more points. The fact that Ayton only avg 1 more PPG than Bam on 4 more shots per game shows you who is the more efficient player....but efficiency doesn't matter lol

This format is the dumbest fucking thing I’ve ever seen.

They actually thought this was a good idea? It’s not even really a tribute anyways lmao.

It really isn't bad. Entering the 4th quarter, it will have the real score.

NBA AS game was never some great product so this is more fun.

At first i was thinking that entering the 4th, it would be first to 24 no matter what the score is but once i realized that isn't how it'll happen then i was fine with it.

More likely to watch the whole game now.

“The only players in NBA history to average 27ppg and 6APG on 50% shooting are LeBron James, Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, Steph Curry, and Oscar Robertson.”
