This should teach Thybulle to develop his offense.
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

I think Terence Davis being left off is more egregious, but I also don’t care about the rising stars game, or the all star weekend as a whole.

If Thybulle has any beef's with not being selected, it should be directed at the format. There are guys on the World team that he's significantly better than. N. Walker-Alexander, specifically, is an inferior player and his offensive stats aren't any better than Thybulle's.

Is this the first Rising Stars game we were boxed out of?

Smith and Thybulle are really setting this team back in a couple minor ways.

Thybulle is a defensive specialist but i think he still is athletic enough to run the floor , catch oops and provide highlights that way.

Smith is just raw all around.

I like Matisse but I feel like some people wildly over-rate him. While young he is not your typical 19 or 20 year old rookie (23 in less then two months) and has an extremely rudimentary offensive game. If we could get Robert Covington back I would trade him and mike scott and a second for Covington and not look back. People forget how good Covington was (arguably the best wing defender in the entire league in 2017-2018 season) here I feel like Thybulle will be lucky to get to as good as Covington is and it will take several years to happen if it happens.

dude has to make shots and stay in front of people. His behind blocks have been scouted and he is fouling like crazy now.

I'd argue that thybulle is already better than Covington? Did you forget that Covington can't make a layup?

Covington is a great defender in his own right (that can defend more positions than Thybulle) and he scores nearly triple what Thybulle does.

I'm glad he didn't make the Rising Stars game. He'd look terrible in that format.

If offered the #1 overall pick in the 2020 draft for Thybulle would Philly make that trade?

Of course we would trade Thybulle for 2020 #1 overall. Lol.

Pretty certain the answer would be yes.

Not that it would happen even in an alternate universe.
