ALL-STAR WEEKEND
Michael, Rams Record Editor
It’s almost all-star weekend and the votes are in. There has been a lot of controversy over
the players who have and haven’t been selected. First, let’s look at who was selected. The two
captains for the new all-star draft system are LeBron James and Stephen Curry. The rest of the
starters are Giannis Antetokounmpo, Demarcus Cousins, Anthony Davis, DeMar DeRozan,
Kevin Durant, Joel Embiid, James Harden, and Kyrie Irving. The reserves are LaMarcus
Aldridge, Bradley Beal, Jimmy Butler, Draymond Green, Al Horford, Damian Lillard, Kevin
Love, Kyle Lowry, Victor Oladipo, Kristaps Porzingis, Klay Thompson, Karl-Anthony Towns,
John Wall, and Russell Westbrook.

You may be reading this and asking where are Paul George, Devin Booker, Lou Williams, Nikola
Jokic, Donovan Mitchell, and maybe even Goran Dragic? The Heat have been killing it recently
and in my opinion Dragic is the reason why. You may say Chris Paul but I think he’s been injured
too much to be an all-star. Well, if you were wondering, I was wondering that too. These guys
have been disrespected by fans and media, especially Paul George. He’s been a top 3 defender in
the NBA and he hasn’t skipped a beat on offense, continuing to be a great three-point shooter and
just a great all around scorer.

In my opinion Paul George, Devin Booker, and Lou Williams are all having better seasons than
Klay Thompson and Donovan Mitchell is having one of the best rookie seasons in the modern era.
I think Goran Dragic deserves to be an all-star more than John Wall because the Heat have been
great and the Wizards have been disappointing.

I also think Nikola Jokic deserves the spot over Draymond Green but I think it just came down to
the fact that there are more Warriors fans than Nuggets fans. There have been some injuries and
to replace those players they put in Andre Drummond for John Wall and they replaced Demarcus
Cousins with Paul George so at least one big snub is now on the team. Who is to replace Kevin
Love is undecided but I’ll leave a link to five possible candidates.
