Re: Will Ben Simmons make the all star team in rookie season?
He won’t make although he has a good chance. Rookies don’t get love from fans so he won’t get voted in. The coaches won’t select him because he’s a rookie. They will add veterans to the team. It’s u fair bit that’s how it is. Even LeBron didn’t make the all star game as a rookie. It’s almost like an initiation to say to rookies it won’t be this easy to make the all star game and you have to earn it and play at a high level for at least one full season before we add you to the all star team.

First player to average these numbers in this span since Scottie Pippen. Not just among rookies, but players in general. If he keeps it up and Sixers can remain at least relevant then he should.

On East? Why not. Especially player who literally can play at 4 positions: PG SG SF PF
If we look at last year East all-star, together with Porzingis he competing for PF Millsap spot, together with Otto Porter for SF George spot, together with Beal and Middleton for SG Butler spot and together with Dragic for I.Thomas PG spot.

Simmons high level defensive ability has been most surprising. Currently putting up 18.4ppg, 9.1rpg and 7.7 assists and looking to have found his mid range game, will Simmons make the all star team in his rookie season?
Naaah playa. I know personally after seeing him play ONE summer league game in 2016 i kept thinking 'ok, this guy is an ACTUAL PG. Not a point forward, but a point'
So this isn't surprising to me 1 bit.

I hope Simmons has amazing longevity from here on out~~ He has all time top 20 potential.
LBJ Giannis and Simmons are going to be amazing to watch at the All Star Game! I bet they make it competitive against the strongest West All Star Team in YEARS!
