Playoffs Day 38- All NBA Teams
Pre Game: It’s the 38th day of NBA action as we have Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals and the All-NBA Teams were announced.
All NBA Teams: 1st Team: SF Giannis Antetokounmpo, PG Stephen Curry, SF Paul George, SG James Harden, C Nikola Jokic.
I agree with all these picks, all of these guys had great years for their respective teams.
2nd Team All NBA: SF Kevin Durant, C Joel Embiid, PG Kyrie Irving, SF Kawhi Leonard, PG Damian Lillard.
I again agree with all of these picks for the 2nd team, some of these players could have been on the 1st team, but no doubt they should have at least been on the 2nd team.
3rd Team All NBA: C Rudy Gobert, PF Blake Griffin, SF Lebron James, PG Kemba Walker, PG Russell Westbrook.
I don’t think that Griffin should have made the team to be honest, and Klay Thompson should have gone over Kemba Walker, but that’s just my opinion. Congratulations to these players as they have worked hard to get this title, and we all hope they keep doing great things (except for Westbrook haters.)
1st Team All Defense: C Rudy Gobert, SF Paul George, SF Giannis Antetokounmpo, SG Marcus Smart, PG Eric Bledose.
2nd Team All Defense: PG Jrue Holiday, SG Klay Thompson, C Joel Embiid, PF Draymond Green, SF Kawhi Leonard.
All Rookie Teams: 1st Team: C Deandre Ayton, PF Marvin Bagley III, G/F Luka Doncic, PF Jaren Jackson Jr, PG Trae Young.
All 5 of these guys were the top 5 picks, so good job on them and for the team that drafted them.
All Rookie 2nd Team: PG Shai-Gilgeous Alexander, PG Collin Sexton, SG Landry Shamet, C Mitchell Robinson, SG Kevin Huerter.
All of these guys performed great for their teams, and hopefully these young guys can turn into stars for the league.
