I love CLV too, but this is unrealistic.
Caris very well may not even be a starter for us this season. Either way, his minutes and usage will take a hit, and he wasn't All-Star caliber last season when he had free rein of the offense.
Even without Kemba, who probably won't be eligible, you have a healthy handful of guys ahead of Levert at guard:
Butler
Simmons
Irving
Young
Holiday
Lowry
Beal
Westbrook
He might beat out guys like Lavine, Oladipo, Brown and Brogdon, but even that is no certainty. Not to mention, we'd have to run away with the EC in order to get 3 spots in the big game, and rip off something like a 30-9 record before the break. Let's just be happy we have him.
Some people really have a way with words. Other people... not... have... way.

Durant and Irving are 100% locks to be voted in as starters. I think there's a chance that either Dinwiddie or LeVert can make a bid if we get off to an amazing start and their numbers are positive.
