ESPN is proposing Porzingis, Embiid, Carmelo, Whiteside, Drummond, or Beal.

For a fleeting second I thought, "Could Al Horford be in consideration?" but that's my bias showing.

Embiid is my pick, but he's not healthy either. I say Porzingis takes it. The league will chose a player that helps with league marketing.

Zinger or Drummond are FAR more deserving.

And while Horford has actually been putting up a nice statline of 14.7 PPG, 6.8 RPG, and 5.0 APG which is eerily similar to Draymond Green's numbers, Adam Silver is the one who will choose a player. Beal, Zinger, and Drummond are all up for grabs for the last spot.

Give it to Porzingis.  Something to get the crowd excited about.

Paul George.

Seconded.

Didn't realize he was on the roster this year.

He's already an all-star.

Yeah, Cleveland has 3 and they are only 2 games up on us. Toronto has 2 all stars and they are 4 back of us.

I expect Beal to get the spot, because they will go with the box score stats above everything else.

Depending on what the real deal with Embiid is, if he isn't really injured and could be playing right now, these shanigans cost him the spot because he would be the clear cut guy if he had played in 10 more games.
