It has become an annual tradition to feel confused and dissatisfied with the voting results of NBA All-Star fans, and this year is no exception. Last year, the voting boom led by the Korean pop music circle made Wikins an All-Star starter, and he was at best a marginal All-Star. Andy Bailey in the bleachers analyzed the voting results of all-star for the first time this year and pointed out those players who ranked too high and too low.
Players with high ranking in the East
Paul bankero (8th Eastern Front Court)
Bankero had a good start in his career, with an average of 21 points, 6.7 rebounds and 4 assists, but his three-point shooting rate was far lower than the average. Even Magic played better when bankelo was not present. Some comprehensive data analysis showed that this season’s bankelo ranked out of the top 100 in the league. All this is far from the eighth place in the Eastern Front. In spite of this, the voting result this time is not too much. At present, it is almost certain that bankelo will be selected as an all-star for several times in his career.
La merlot-Bauer (7th post-East)
As far as personal standards are concerned, Ramello-Bauer has reason to return to the All-Star game. According to the estimated positive and negative values developed by the Dunks and threads website, Powell surpassed 83 percent of the league’s players, with an average of 23.7 points and 8.1 assists hitting 4.1 points. However, to some extent, the availability of players is also meaningful. Powell only played less than half of the games this season, so his estimated number of wins only exceeded 68 percent of the league’s players.
Derek Ross (9th East backcourt)
There is no need for much explanation here. Rose has played 26 games this season and can score 5.8 points in 12.9 minutes. Compared with his performance, Rose’s ranking is really too high. Even if he finally fails to win all stars, he should not be surprised.
The eastern ranking is too low
Joel enbide (3rd Eastern Front Court)
Enbide’s ranking depends on your opinion on the dispute between enbide and alphabet brother. The former is ahead of the latter in many comprehensive indicators, with higher average scores and better efficiency, the 76 people led by enbide were also better than the stag of brother alphabet on goal difference. Enbide is closer to the strongest player in the East, not the 3rd in the front of the East.
Tyres Halliburton (8th post-East)
If you rank all the comprehensive indicators of all qualified players in NBA after averaging, Halliburton can rank in the top 8 among all the players, and there was no one in front of him in the back court in the east. Judging from the basic data, Halliburton is also an all-star level. The average game was 20.6 points 10.2 assists, leading the Pacers to achieve more than half of the winning rate, which was surprising.
Jay Brunson (not ranked)
This is outrageous. Brunson plays for a team with the largest media market in the league, averaging 20.8 points and 6.5 assists in the game. The Knicks record is still in the playoff range. However, Brunson didn’t even get in the top 10 of the Eastern backcourt. Instead, his teammate Rose was the 9th in the eastern backcourt……
The Western ranking is too high
The result of this part is ridiculous. To be honest, although James is still elected as the All-Star King, he is no longer the strongest player in the league. Based on the honor of James’s career and the foundation of fans, the problem of being elected as an All-Star starter is not big, and he really can’t pick out too many problems.
Andrew Wikins (the fifth Western Front Court)
History is repeating itself. Wikins actually played better this season than last season, with average scores, rebounds and effective field goal percentage all rising. So far, he has only played 22 games, and the Warriors have played 39 games.
Anthony Davis (3rd Western Front Court)
This ranking is not so bad, because Davis’s data is outrageous, with an average of 27.4 points 12.1 rebounds 2.6 assists 2.1 cap 1.3 steals, but he only played 3 more games than Wikins. Of course, some people will say that Curry only played one more game than Davis. Why don’t you say Curry ranks too high? The difference between the two is that when Curry came out, the warrior’s record was 14-12, while when Davis came out, the Lakers’s record was 11-14, which made Curry’s All-Star starting position more reasonable.
Kevin Luni (10th Western Front Court)
Rooney’s performance was great. Yogueta didn’t focus on the rebound, transferred the ball frequently, and didn’t want to give up the chance to score, so Warriors couldn’t do many things. However, the all-star data was still a little worse. In the Warriors with a winning rate of more than half, the average game was only 6.7 points and 8.4 rebounds.
Russell-Westbrook (6th West backcourt)
The basic data of weishao is OK, with 14.5 points and 7.7 assists. He was one of the most powerful players in weishao’s career, but now he accepts the substitute role for the team. However, Wei Shao’s efficiency as a scorer is the second-to-last in the league. Any average shooter who has the same number of shots will score less and higher than Wei.
Austin Reeves (9th West backcourt)
My God, if Ross’s ranking is not enough to convince you that the fans did not take the voting seriously, then there will be fess. As a multi-year All-Star and the youngest MVP in history, Rose has at least some legends. The hardcore fans in the early stage of Rose’s career may support him unconditionally. However, Reeves is only a second-grade player. In a team with a winning rate of less than half, the average score is 10.8 points, and the three-point shooting rate is only slightly higher than the average level.
Jordan Poole (10th West backcourt)
The average score of Poole is 20.6 points, but like weishao, Poole’s field goal percentage is far lower than the average level. When Poole was present, the Warriors had a net Victory score of 10.3 points per hundred rounds.
The Western ranking is too low
Domantas-Sabonis (not ranked)
Sabonis averaged 18.7 points per game, 12.4 rebounds 6.7 assists, rebounding the first in the league, and the King’s current record ranks fifth in the West. If you rank all the comprehensive indicators of all qualified players in NBA after the average, Sabonis ranks 11th, and there are only jokiki and Davis in the western forecourt player ahead of him. As a result, Sabonis couldn’t even enter the top 10 in the western front court, which was crazy.
De Aron-Fox (not ranked)
Sabonis is not the only King player who was snubbed by the first batch of voting results. The team’s starting point guard Fox field averaged 23.9 points 5.9 assists, field goal percentage 50.4%. If the King continues to win at the current pace, they should have at least one player selected as an All-Star. Fox and Sabonis are both worthy candidates.
Aron Gordon (not ranked)
Jokiki is obviously the driving force for nuggets to succeed, but the past tradition is that at least two players from the first team in the West can be selected as All-Stars. Gordon is undoubtedly the second best player in Nuggets this season. Gordon scored an average of 17.1 points in the game, effective field goal percentage to 62.6 percent of his career high. At the same time, he often undertakes the most difficult defensive task in the team.
Lauri-malcanin (7th Western Front Court)
Compared with other players on this list, including Davis, who is in front of him, malcanin is a Ironman. He has only missed 3 games so far in the season, and many people have neglected his excellent scoring efficiency, probably because the league has too many gorgeous personal data throughout the season. Malcanin averaged 23.9 points, with a real field goal percentage of 66.9 percent. Before the start of this season, Curry was the only player in the history of the league who met this standard in two single seasons, and he also achieved it twice. At present, Durant and jokiki have the opportunity to achieve this achievement.
