Crazy good star power in the BE this year. How the hell are these coaches going to pick a 1st team All-league team?

You need to pick 6 guys out of:

Brunson
Bridges
Macura
Blueitt
Rodriguez
Delgado
Foster
Thomas
Ponds
Lovett
Martin
Howard
Rousey
Govan
Cartwright
Bullock


As a Nova fan I have a hard time thinking that Brunson and Bridges are not 2 of the top 6players in this league. You can’t not take Angel and Trevon. But Ponds, Dezi, JP, Martin, Khyri, Foster, Howard, Bullock...geez, look at the numbers Govan is putting up. I wouldn’t know where to even start if I had 6 votes.

Gun to my head, if I had votes it would be (I simply couldn’t choose only 6)

Brunson
Blueitt
Delgado
Bridges
Ponds
Dezi / Khyri

But I look at a 2nd team with guys like Martin, Foster, Govan, Macura, Bullock, Howard and would love to see an exhibition.

Khyri Thomas starting to get some love on the NBA draft boards. Latest ESPN update has him being selected #28.

NBA teams know they need guys who can play D and hit shots. Bridges and Thomas may be 2 of the top 5 two-way players nationally. But fan ratings of players usually start and end with offensive stats alone. KT is a great player IMO b/c of what he brings both ends.

Kaiser Gates is likely to get drafted (maybe not this year) and I personally think Quinten Goodin has NBA potential.
