Korver is as valuable to their team as Millsap.
He is playing excellent this season.
I wouldn't call him a role player any more than Manu was in his 2 allstar seasons.
Everyone has a role, some people think bouncing the ball around 20 times at top of the key is more important than the SG's role.
I tend to disagree, when comparing Knight and Korver.

Re: ASG: Korver in for Wade
korver is a non box-score all star. The offensive impact he has on the floor is greater than some 20 ppg scorers.
The gravitational pull korver causes when he is coming off of screens is near the top of the league. (One ESPN article statisically showed that hes number 2 only to stephen curry.)
He literally sucks whole defenses when hes moving off the ball, and it opens up so much for the hawks

Game. Set. Match.
Re: ASG: Korver in for Wade
No problem with Korver, but I would have liked to see Knight make it as well.

I hear you. At the end of the day I dont know why I even argue All Star selections. Korver probably will get 10mins if that. But you have to give B.Knight some credit for this season. He's performed well for the Bucks even if you wouldnt pick him for the AS team.

Re: ASG: Korver in for Wade
As someone else mentioned he is more entertaining of a selection. It should be fun to watch. He deserves the recognition too because he has played off the charts. His defense has been surprisingly good to boot.

Re: ASG: Korver in for Wade
Just got to say I never imagined that Kyle Korver would become an all star. still remember back in his Utah days where he played little and could literally ONLY hit threes. He was always good though as a 12th pick on my fantasy draft on 2k back when he was rated 62 overall or something.

Re: ASG: Korver in for Wade
Thats what happens when u pick all stars based off winning. If a guys is putting up 20pts 11+ rebounds for multiple years but his team sucks shouldn't get punished for it. What if Cavs had continued to suck and Lebron still put up his same numbers should he not be an All star? Now they give All star selections to role players.

Re: ASG: Korver in for Wade
Wow, that's a terrible selection.
Nobody on the Mavs made it, that's ridiculous. Dirk or Monta should've made it over Korver.

Dirk has been non-factor this year.. I really don't know how the mavs have won so many games. I'm actually more surprised Tyson Chandler didn't make it..... and thats saying something haha

Korver > Knight. Good to see people are recognizing true impact and not volume #s.

Re: ASG: Korver in for Wade
Delighted for Korver. Kind of harsh on Brandon Knight but can't argue against Kyle. He has been sensational this season and the 50/50/90 record is something pretty unique. Probably, this would be the last time Korver would ever be able to make the All-Star team while Knight has plenty of time on his side.

And how would that have happened? If I'm not mistaken, the Mavs are still in the West

This. Korver's impact far surpasses Knight's by a wide margin. For this season only I'm sure every team in the league would rather have Korver than Knight for good reason.
