The frustrated duo of 2023 All-Stars has to be said to be the pair of Harden and Embiid. In terms of strength, the two did not lose at all, and they were in good shape to lead the team all the way to the second place in the East, and the result was selected as an All-Star starter, and neither of them was selected.

Look at James Harden, averaging 21.5 points, 6.4 rebounds and 11.1 assists per game this season, the only player to achieve 20+5+10 so far, and is likely to become the season assist king. For the sake of the team, Harden has transformed this season, focusing more on organizational work and assisting Embiid to play better. Lost to Mitchell and the more flamboyant Irving in the competition for starters.

Joel Embiid received 153 votes, the highest number of votes among the undrafted players. Embiid lost to Tatum, Durant and Alphabet Brother in the Eastern Conference frontcourt, and it can only be said that the competition in the East is too fierce. Both Durant and Alphabet have FMVP proof, and Tatum has averaged 35 points in the last five games to secure the last frontcourt spot. Embiid was naturally squeezed into the second lineup. This season, Embiid averaged 33.4 points per game, the league's leading scorer.

Fortunately, Embiid and Harden have passed the stage of pursuing personal honors, and the scoring title has also been won, and now Embiid and Harden are dedicated to pursuing championship rings, and there is no regret about missing out on All-Star starters. Adjusting your competitive form, preparing for the card slot battle after the All-Star Break, and fighting for more home field advantage is the right thing.
