With the 2022-2023 NBA season over halfway through, the NBA has announced their eastern and western conference all star starts and team captains. Let’s agree or disagree on who I think should have been on this list and taken off this list.
Captains
Eastern Conference: Giannis Antetokounmpo
Western Conference: LeBron James
I do agree with the captains on both of the conferences as LeBron has been the best western conference player and Giannis has been the best eastern conference player thus far.
Starters
Western conference starters
- LeBron James
- Stephen Curry
- Luka Doncic
- Zion Williamson
- Nikola Jokic
Eastern Conference starters
- Giannis Antetokounmpo
- Jayson Tatum
- Donovan Mitchell
- Kyrie Irving
- Kevin Durant
I do agree completely with the western conference starters as they are all viewed as the top players in the western conference as some other top players in the west have missed significant time and are not valid for this list. For the eastern conference I do agree with the list other than the fact of Joel Embiid should have made the list as a true center, replacing Kevin Durant as he has missed significant time and there are already way to make wings and forwards on this list.
