The All-Star Game has always been a condiment for a long NBA season, and many celebrities from all walks of life will gather together on this rare weekend to enjoy the feast created by basketball people, and today, Beijing time, the NBA officially announced the 2021/22 NBA All-Star Game starting lineup, but this set of starts has attracted a lot of controversy
First of all, the West, the Western Conference starters are Curry, Morant, Wiggins, James, Jokic (James was selected as an All-Star for the 18th time, became the former ticket king and served as the captain of the West), the other four selections are still expected, but Wiggins can really be selected is a bit surprising, this is the first time Wiggins was selected as an All-Star in his career, and also directly entered the starting lineup, to know that Wiggins is currently averaging only 18+4+2 this season, and none of the other high-level data can rank in the top twenty in the league. Most of them are even out of the rankings, and it is really outrageous that such an ordinary performance can make it into the Western Conference All-Star starter. Although Davis, Xiao Ka and George are all plagued by injuries in the Western Conference forward this season, both Towns and Ingram are more worthy of starting than Wiggins in terms of personal performance, if the record caused these two people to fail to start, why did the Suns at the top of the Western Conference not be selected?
Looking at the East, the Eastern Conference starts are Trae Young, DeRozan, Durant, Antetokounmpo, Embiid (Durant became the East vote king and served as the Captain of the East, but will not play due to injuries), compared with the West, this lineup in the East is indeed reasonable, if you have to be critical, Trae Young's Eagles are in poor shape this season, the record is not good, but Trae Young is still selected as the starter. The rest is similar to the situation of the sun, and the current first heat in the east is also unseen, which really makes the outside world feel a little pity
After the start, the rest of the time is to wait for the replacement to come out, and each year the substitute is often more controversial than the starter. First of all, the West, backcourt Paul and Booker were selected with little suspense, if last season the Suns all the way to the Finals is a favorable time and place, then this season the Suns at the top of the league can see that they have transformed into a strong team, and Mitchell and Spurs' Murray also have a chance to be selected, especially Dezhangtai Murray, although the Spurs have a poor record this season, but Murray can average 19+8.5+9 per game, and a little effort in the second half can even impact 20+10+10, how terrifying is this? Doncic and Downs in the frontcourt should also be reasonable, and other players to Ingram and Gobert also have a good chance of impacting this season's All-Star Game bench
Looking at the East again, the competition in the East this year will be very fierce, although the backcourt will lack Irving and Simmons two top guards, but there is another big star of the Nets, Harden, who has declined both in stats and status this season, but he is still an All-Star player, and it is understandable to be selected as a substitute, the rest like Lavin, Holliday, Beal, VanVleet, Hiro, La Mello Ball and even Garland also have opportunities, and Butler and Tatum should be more stable in the frontcourt, especially Butler, The Heat he leads are currently at the top of the league this season, and it is inevitable that the selection as a star of the house is a foregone conclusion, and the rest such as Jarrett Allen, Jaylen Brown, Siakam, Bridges, Middleton and others will not be surprised by who is selected
