Falling Stars Game

[2 For The Brew]

Putting Westbrook in the same breath with Ben Simmons is not right. Westbrook loves the game and works his ass off. Even if he's not efficient at it, still. Simmons shouldn't be in the NBA.

No argument from me. Unfortunately the Sixers maxed him out and the idiot Nets traded for him and now they’re stuck with him like the poor bastard who’s staring at the Queen of Spades, can’t get rid of it or shoot the moon and will lose the hand bigly.

Imagine how it is for the Nets players who have to look at that slacker and pretend he’s anything other than a depressing distraction who makes more money than any of them.

The guy I’d want to bring back is Andrew Bogut. #1 overall pick and he literally fell in less than a minute playing for us. Plus he’s an ex-Warrior and for some reason we’ve drafted a bunch of ex-warriors and ex-Cavaliers.

The all time fallen star has to be Derrick Coleman. Or Simmons.

Bogut doesn't feel right here. End of his career was less than glorious but he had a solid career. Couple all D level seasons and at least one all NBA. He was a top 10ish center in the weakest center era in nba history

Harrison Barnes, the man who started it all.

Given that Fallen Stars is a year-to-year thing just like Rising Stars, I’d posit Russell Westbrook not make the game this year since he’s found a role off the bench with the Clippers - and doesn’t play with the same reckless Lakers abandon that made him a perennial Fallen Star in previous years.

I think some are missing the point: You're going to find guys who were previously all-stars and were really good (a la Westbrook) but have fallen off, possibly even due to old age.

Like, LeBron would be on this list, you know, if he actually fell off ever.

How is Jordan Poole not mentioned yet?

@The Human Q-Tip took him. He’s overdue for another pick. Probably out scouring Cuyahoga County for more Viagra. Always a shortage after VD - so I’ve heard.

Jamaal Magloire shocked he is falling down the draft board…

It is to early to draft Zach Lavine, Bradley Beal, or Nikola Vucevic?

There are plenty of role players to fill out the bench. Lonzo Ball, Mike Conley, Steven Adams, Nicolas Batum, Bismack Biyombo, Evan Fournier, Joe Harris...

In this type of game, you can never have enough injury reserves

It's really a shame John Wall doesn't qualify.

Not sure he really qualifies except in the minds of some posters, but I can't resist adding Cam Reddish.

Evan Fournier is still sitting in the green room, cameras in his face, plummeting down the draft boards after expecting to be a top pick. He has phoned Aaron Rodgers for advice.
