Really? No Tyler Hansbrough on the first team?

Only 7.7 rebounds and .4 blocks per game for Tyler. Blair and Griffin on the other hand were all over the boards, 13 and 14 rebounds per along with their scoring and superior shot blocking. And Thabeet with 4+ blocks and 10+ rebounds. And Meeks and Curry simply carried their teams offensively with 25+ppg. I just think those 5 all had better more dominant seasons than Tyler. But that's just me.

As much as I love Blair, there were just times this season where he didn't show up because of foul trouble. I would give Tyler preference for this reason alone. Moreover, I disagree with Thabeet being placed on the first team. Sure, he is a game changing player, but I wouldn't value him as much as a Blake or a Hansbrough. (in terms of accomplishments)

And, I would give Harden the nod over Meeks because he is more multidimensional. But, maybe that's just me.

Hansborough is a lock for the 1st team, no way around it.

I'd say first teams looks like:
Stephen Curry
James Harden
Tyler Hansborough
Blake Griffin
Hasheem Thabeet
