[Xiao Yao You]

Play in team with 2 top 15 players?

[FultzNationRISE]

Tatum over Lebron?

Surely you jest!

Who do you have above them?

It's about optics. Boston has the best record in the league. They need a guy in the first team.

No one in their right mind would say that Tatum is actually a better or more inpactful player than LeBron.

"They have the best team, so we all have to pretend they have a top 5 player even though we all know they dont."

I mean youre absolutely right, that is exactly how the voters think and will probably vote.

But it's so absurd. Everyone agreeing to do something that makes no sense, for no reason. It's utterly unnecessary and backward to employ this faulty logic, and yet the voters WILL do it en masse.

Bizaro world.

Kyrie lol. He played 58 games he’s not even eligible. Nor is he deserving even without that rule.

Any idea how often an 8-seed has two all NBA players? Since 2010, 17 have had none; 8 have had one, and one has had 2. That was the 2018 Wolves, with Butler and Towns, and it was undeserved.

By your way of thinking, Minnesota, with the third best record in the League, doesn’t have a single all-NBA guy on the squad. That’s absurd.

Yes they do. Edwards is on my 2nd team.

LAL is no ordinary 8th seed either. They have the same record as the East 5th seed Magic, in a much tougher conference. When adjusted for strength of schedule, I'd argue that their record is superior any team in the East aside from Boston... Who would you have in over Bron and/or AD?

The only mistake I made was Kyrie. He shouldn't be in there. I'd probably replace him with Kawhi

Lakers won 45 games and landed in 8th place with Davis and some decent roleplayers. Where is all of this impact?

[Kblaze8855]

They got rid of Position rules right? They can make a team all guards if they want to get they? We will have to wait until the voting results come out to see, but I think you just vote for everyone and they rank it one through 15 Regardless of position.

Im sure not seeing it. I top 15 player can make a team good. 2 should make them great

[tpols]

Who are you taking over kyrie at the 3rd team?
