Howard Beck

All right.

Who's next?

Brandon Ingram.

Jamal Murray Howard so Jamal Murray congrats finally an all-star the longest tenured rhetorical best player to not be an all-star he took the Damian Lillard award for the most tenured guy who didn't get all-stars great that he's there we can stop calling him underrated now and by the way

Honestly, if we're being honest, he never really was underrated.

He was properly rated.

He was properly rated.

In fact, we veered so far to the other side because, oh, he didn't get it.

He got snubbed again or he got injured again, whatever, that he became almost like, I don't want to say overrated, but like we got too... I hate the rating system.

Here's the thing.

This is not a knock on Jamal Murray, who's a very, very good player and a worthy all-star this year.

But like...

He's never been among the top scorers at point guard or the top assist guys at point guard or the top defenders at point guard.

He's having a fantastic season this year.

But here's the guys who were always ahead of him in the all-star pecking order of the Western Conference since 2020.

Steph Curry, James Harden, Luka, Chris Paul, Westbrook, Lillard, Donovan Mitchell, You know what?

Now that you say that list, Howard, I think Murray should have got in.

What?

I disagree.

Mike Conley in 2021, I think that was the year... Murray's ACL was somewhere in that range.
