Bruh he's not an all star. He's a solid role player but he's not an all star caliber player. Put him on a contender and he's a role player. Put him on Phoenix dude dosn't even start.

the fact he is an all star is all you need to know about how watered down the current nba is

back in 02-04 you had people like kobe, pierce, vince carter, tracy mcgrady, iverson, ray allen etc. etc.

can you imagine midget fck fred on that team across from one of those guys trying to contain them?

Yeah that's my point. Anyone who watches the raps and dosn't just look at stats knows freddy isn't that guy. He's on a mediocre team and defenses don't pay him much mind so he does pretty good in this easy era but he's definitely one of the weakest all stars ever.

I wouldn't even care if you felt that way, but worst "ever"? There's way too many selections that would qualify as worse. Do you really believe VanVleet is worse than all of the guys I listed? End of career all-stars like Kobe or Yao? Or someone from earlier like BJ Armstrong or James Donaldson?

He'd start on plenty, teams can play 2 points now if they both play good d, especially if they're big like Jrue.

I don't know if he's the worst that's why i asked dude. He's definitely up there though. He just got lucky. In any other situation and team he dosn't make the all star team. Again what other playoff team does he make the all star team on?

I wont say become an all star but he would look good and have an important role on some teams. bulls, heat(better than lowry now I think), sixers, nuggets, clippers, jazz(conley similar to lowry now), mavs, wolves.

Yeah forsure. I already said he's a solid role player. Not sure about him being better than lowery. He wasn't when they played together. I can't stand lowery because of the flopping but he's a tough player. He has way more on the game overall imo.

Answer the question though. What other playoff team does he make the all star team on? Shit i can name a bunch of non all stars that teams wouldn't even entertain trading fir vanvleet. You think philly would trade tyrese for fred? You think warriors trade poole for fred? Hell no they wouldn't There's a bunch of non all stars better than fred.

You didn't even respond when I countered your BS but I have to respond to you? :lol Those guys aren't better they are younger and still developing and that's why they wouldn't be traded for him. If you think the Raptors have close to the same season with Poole or Maxey replacing FVV you are a moron.

Wolves is a maybe. He starts on denver because of the injuries but otherwise he dosn't. I'll give you tge mavs though.

The Celtics start Marcus Smart at point guard and Jaylen Brown at shooting guard. They are both getting moved up a slot to SG and SF if they had FVV, they can easily do that. Wolves is not a maybe, who tf are they starting over him? :roll: Caruso starting over him is hilarious considering Caruso didn't even start a lot fo the year :roll:

No they aren't bumping them up fred would be coming off the bench. And wolves is a maybe because wolves don't need his scoring. They need bevs defense and intensity more than they'd need freds scoring. Freds getting 17 attempts on raps. You think he gets anywhere close to that on wolves or cetics. He maybe gets half as many attempts.

he get quite a bit of a green light because butler and bam arent the highest scoring star duo. His defense is easily better than lowry's too now so numbers are not his only case.

and I must agree with RRR3, raptors defense falls apart replacing fvv with either of those guys. Their teams wont trade them for vanvleet because they're younger with a lot of upside while Fred is in his prime. Doesnt mean those guys are better right now

Nah buddy you're retarded if you actually think maxey and poole aren't better than fred. Freds only an all star because he's on the raps. In a different situation like on the warriors or philly how many attempts do you think he gets? Do actually think he's getting a17 attempts? The only difference between fred, poole and maxey is fred takes more shots because he's on a worse team.

Nah bro he gets maybe 12 or 13 shots a game and that's a stretch. He got 7 shot attempts a game when he was on a contending team for a reason. It's not like freds way better than 19 he's just has a green light and shooting more. Throw a healthy kawhi or any mvp caliber player on the raps right now and freds attempts plumet and he's no longer an all star. He's not even close.

I'd say this year LeBron was worse than Freddy.

Freddy hit a lot of clutch shots this season. He also played defense and took his crappy team to the playoffs.

LeBron took his "all star" team to the bottom of the standings.

They never won 60 brotha. And he's no better now than he was the year after kawhi. The only difference between now and 19-20 is he shots a few more shots a game.

Again if you throw a mvp caliber player on this raptors squad fred goes from 17 shots a game to maybe 12 at best. That drops his scoring to around 15 pts or so which is below what players like poole and maxey score. Put fred on any other playoff team and he's a solid role player but he's not an all star. This is true for any year in any era. Smart money says raps either trade him or find a way to get a real star in Toronto and fred never gets another all star. This was most likely a one and done.

Allen Iverson doesn't even chuck that bad.

Most of his shots were 3's (17 shots per game, 10 were threes). He actually shot a respectable 44% on 2s.

Allen Iverson only had 1 full season of his career where he matched or exceeded FVV's TS% this year (55%)

Bruh iverson played in the hardest scoring era ever and freddy playsbin one of the easiest. Throw fred in late 90's to early 2000's and he's coming off the bench scoring 8-12 pts a game.

Yeah pretty much. To me true all stars are all star caliber no matter the situation. This isn't the case with freddy. Raps are one of the few teams where he's able to put up all star numbers as a first option. Throw him on the other side of the court in this series and he goes from the number 1 option to possibly the number 4.

The difference is FVV was selected, guys like Gatling were replacements. Granted, if it was done in the traditional method, then FVV probably doesn't get selected.

you can say this about a few guys every year. they have a career year in a good situation. No one's saying vanvleet will be a perennial all star or that he's not one of the weaker all star selections this year. Thinking he's a 4th option on other playoff teams is exaggerating and thinking poole and maxey are better based on 2 playoff games is overreacting to though they could be next year. The East had another one of those selections in Jarrett Allen this year. Last year conley made it etc.

Well i'm not basing it on a couple games lol. Maxey was 18 on 49%fg and 43% 3pt this year. Poole was 19 on 45%fg and 36% 3pt. Both took 13 shots a game which is 4 less shots than fred. Fred was 20 on 40%fg and 38%3pt.

Do you really think if fred is on warriors or philly he's still getting 17 shots up? He's not he's gonna get around the same amount of shots those are getting which is gonna drop his scoring to right around what those guys are at. I can guarantee this will play out when either the raps trade him or get a elite player. Time will tell
