Kevin Martin will be an All-Star this year...
- Thread starter Merdiesel
- Start date
i'd love to see him as an all star myself (as well most of the people in this forum), but there's a lot more that people will look at other than scoring. he's competing with a lot of other players who score about as many points, but also distribute and rebound better than him as well; so it'll definitely be an uphill battle for him
I know everything
Funny, you say that....because I have a feeling in my mind that Kevin Martin has ZERO chance to be an All-Star this year.....Mike Bibby has scored 10,000 points in 8 years and has zero all-star appearances to show for it.
What makes you think K Mart goes before Bibby?
And do you really think a 3rd year player who has never started a full season, has never been the focus of any opponents defense, has never average more than barely 10 points, has yet to show any ability to make teammates better...has shown little inclination as a passer or ball-handler...he is going to be an All-Star??? Let's get real.
Now don't get me wrong...he made some sweet shots last nite... drifting floaters...rise in the air and keep body control and shoot an accurate jumper....comfortable launching from "3"...busting out in transition as soon as rebound is snagged...tireless energy running off screens and through picks.....NICE!!! I like that...makes us forget about Bonzi and what he did... Keep it up...K-Mart definitely loves to play @ Arco.
But let's see him put together a string of great games before making him an All-Star. Like around 2 1/2 full seasons worth....

The All Star game is nothing but a popularity contest, as evidenced by the fact that you can be voted to the starting line-up while being out injured all season. As someone mentioned earlier, there are bigger 'names' out there. It will take him a while to gain that type of notority around the league, since he was basically unknown by anyone before this.
