Who are your predicted starting five on each conference for this upcoming 2024 All-Star?

These are my objective (realistic) guesses:

West: G: Stephen Curry (popularity, inconsistent atm); G: Luca Doncic (ridiculously efficient so far); F: LeBron James (popularity); F: Kevin Durant (Just great atm); C: Nikola Jokic;

East: G: Tyrese Maxey (marketable narrative and playing great atm); G: Donovan Mitchell (good and popular); F: Jason Tatum (ofc); F: Giannis Antetokounmpo (Ofc); C: Joel Embiid (ofc);

These are my personal preferences:

West: G: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (Just better overall vs Steph atm); G: Luka Doncic (I dislike Luca but seems like he’s locked to start bc he is popular and just ridiculous stat wise); F: Paul George (Currently playing great atm. Hoping LeBron numbers would dip and George get a bit better for him to have a case); F: Kevin Durant (This one’s kinda locked stats wise too); C: Nikola Jokic (JOKER);

East: G: Damian Lillard (Playing quite well atm. Hoping Bucks linger on top 3 in the east for him to make a case against the stat padding guards in the east); G: Donovan Mitchell (Still prefer a legit SG rather than two PGs even tho it’s All Star game); F: Jason Tatum (Tatum fan and he’s locked); F: Giannis Antetokounmpo (Even his stats dipped a bit he’ll still start bc he is charismatic); C: Joel Embiid (no C in East comes close);

So whose yours? I would love to see your predictions as well and your arguments why.

    I am not sure Tyrese will get more votes than Tyrese to be honest

    Though, both are playing great. Tyrese is a bus driver, while Tyrese is a bus conductor to the MVP.
