I've seen this argument thrown around through out the years of all star voting in all sports. Some approach the all star game as a reward to players who had a great 2nd half of the season from the previous. Using this argument, I could easily see the argument for Kyrie over Thomas.ZWICK 4 PREZ;1779262 wrote:I'll reiterate since Commander is having a hard time comprehending English.
Isiah Thomas is having a good year. Better than Kyrie Irving. That's why he's picked for all star game over him. Obviously no one would take Isiah Thomas over Kyrie Irving for their franchise , but picking for an allstar reserve, you judge who's having the better year. Which there's no debating Thomas is having a better year.
I'd prefer Kyrie to focus on getting back to 100% and having a dominant 2nd half to the season than worry about the ASG anyway, but let's be real here. If MJ was hurt for 50% of the first half of the season, he still would deserve the nod for a All Star roster spot.
