Wiggins wouldn’t even be 7th team all nba

The fact that he gets in will mean somebody else gets snubbed.

What an embarrassment for the league.

So does that mean fans can’t and shouldn’t have an opinion on an exhibition game? Like what’s the point of this kind of comment lol?

Honestly they are pretty much the same size. Arguing about positions in today's positionless NBA is silly. Luka should be starting and Wiggins should not even be in the game

People should complain more of Curry stinking up the joint once again while Wiggins is playing like actual all-star..

Ja Morant is new but he actually deserves it unlike Wiggins

Agreed, how many of us will actually watch the All-Star game. The All-Time Great players always make the game anyway, sometimes more than they should when they get older, so it does a good job of crowning great players.

Quibbling about borderline players in an already health ravaged year due to COVID is stupid.
The Greatest of All Time debate in basketball is essentially who has the greatest basketball resume of the player who has the best highlights instead of who is the best player

If you got rid of positions from All-Star teams the composition of teams would be different in far more ways than just Wiggins over Doncic. Wiggs as an All-Star is just as legit as any other year with a plethora of injuries to the best players. Deal with it.

the funny part is in one yr wiggins becomes the worst contract to the best and curry vice versa.
and people are saying steph developed wiggins to all star he somehow gets all the credit.

curry is shooting 35% from corner 3s and 0 dunks this yr you could argue wiggins is a better overall player. looking forward to 2025 season when curry is making 60 freaking million dollars. i was defending steph and bashing gs for not trading for stars but looks like im wrong once again gs probably knew his decline would start this season they cant win a title with him as the guy.
Doncic will be goat. Lauri will be his sidekick.
