If you could build a starting lineup of only players who had never been All-Stars, what would it look like?  Here’s mine:

PG: Ty Lawson

SG: Eric Gordon

SF: Danilo Gallinari

PF: Greg Monroe

C: DeMarcus Cousins

 

This team wouldn’t be much defensively, but it would definitely be exciting!

 I like it but I would have to add Josh Smith somewhere.

[Stojakovicfor3Participant]

PG- Kyle Lowry
SG- Eric Gordon
SF- Rudy Gay
PF- Josh Smith
C- Greg Monroe

C – Cousins

Doesn’t really matter who else but they will be nice complimentary pieces to put around Cousins.

PG Kyle Lowry – Do everything point guard.

SG Eric Gordon – The lead scorer, can shoot, attack the rim and is a better defender than many think.

SF Luol Deng – A hard nosed, high IQ player who will contribute at both ends of the floor.

PF Josh Smith – Athletic and can run the floor, a very good defensive player and a skilled player offensively.

C Greg Monroe – An emerging post player who can rebound and pass as well as score.

 

Hard to leave Rudy Gay off, I just feel that Deng would be a better fit with the rest of these guys.

 Loul deng just made an all star team.

how about Lamar odom making a life time achievement all star team lol

[ItsVictorOladipoParticipant]

oh yeah my bad, I totally forgot that

[Forte IVParticipant]

Maybe add in Kevin Martin off the bench

I think Lawson will make the all-star team next year.  I know the West is loaded with point guards like Westbrook, Paul, Tony Parker, and now Steve Nash.  Lawson was great in the playoffs this year.  He gave the Lakers fits with his speed and quickness. 

[mouchy18Participant]

 I can’t see Lawson making it next yr, giving everyone is healthy Paul & Westbrook are locks, Nash will be on a better team giving him the edge and I won’t mention tony p. But it’s tough enough beating out the nonallstar guards like Rubio if he is healthy the wolves will be much better & he will get the credit, Steph curry will bounce bask as well. It’s going to be awfully hard for these young PG’s to break through

[HaleParticipant]

Haha why the ‘now’ in front of Nash? Hasn’t he always been in the West?

[flybobbyflyParticipant]

Im surprised that nobody had mentioned monte or brandon jennings. Jennings was a definite snub last year and should have made the team over dwill and monta is one of the most exciting players in the league. He’s been snubbed two or three times.

 

[JBickart14Participant]

 PG- Monta Ellis

SG- James Harden

SF- Rudy Gay

PF- Josh Smith

C- DeMarcus Cousins

[JustaFanParticipant]

1- Holiday

2- Harden

3- Rudy

4- J. Smith

5- Cousins

Good look…. Josh is currently on the All -Snub team already. I was going with EG or Monte but fact of the matter is that good guards and forwards are going to get snubbed every year, so picking a 2 and 3 is kind of a pick your player kind of thing.

[Sharp ShooterParticipant]

 Pg Monta Ellis (yes he played pg once upon a time)

Sg Eric Gordon low Maintenance guard. Too bad he PLAYED for NO otherwise he would’ve been an all star 

Sf Gay his injury hurt his chances this year

Pf Cousins up and coming c/pf in the league…should be an all star next season

C Monroe rising star who deserved to be an all star this season  over hibbert if only his team had a better record…nice potential rivalry between cousins and Monroe.
