Kemba & Bismack All rookie teams

[MadBOBCATfanUK]

Do they get in and if they do what team do they feature in?

[ND22]

I think Kemba has a good shot at the first team, and Bismack could sneak into the 2nd team.

[adam187]

i'm seeing first team something like - irving, rubio, faried, chandler parsons, kawhi leonard

second team - isiah thomas, brandon knight or kemba (whoever finishes stronger), derrick williams, ...???

not sure i see either of our dudes making it, but i could be wrong. how much do the consider position in these things, i never really paid attention.

edit: haven't kept up with the following dudes but maybe? - marshon brooks, shumpert, norris cole (lolz)

If Kemba has a strong finish then yes he gets in on the 1st or 2nd team. Bismack deserves to be on one of the teams as well but I don't think he will get on one of the teams.

Have you guys paid attention to the rookie ladder? Kemba nor Biz have been on it in the last 2 or 3 weeks which sucks. However, I think this shows that they are not thought to be in the top 10 of rookies. I really think that Kemba and Biz should be. But i think Biz will miss out and Kemba will get 2nd team. Our terrible record doesn't help

Majorly a popularity contest

yes I agree. However, Kemba was many peoples pick for ROY and was hugely popular across the league. Also he was on the ladder earlier in the season and got up to 3rd. The fact is he has dipped

And he was really popular back then wasn't he? Kinda proves my point...

Also, that was before we ended up being 7-40something and before his FG dropped so low. It's "cool" to be down on Kemba right now is what I'm trying to say despite him playing largely the same that got him up to 3rd.

The rookie ladder is just picked my Schuman and is based somewhat by popularity . ROY and the rookies teams are picked by the head coaches. The coaches are respectful people, it is not just a popularity contest, stop being such a cynic!

Kemba and Bismack have been two of the most durable players this year aswell when compared to the likes of Brooks, Irving and Shumpert who seem locks to make the teams

[ND22]

Forgot about Rubio because of his injury. Think he still makes it regardless, which means Kemba more than likely makes the 2nd team.

BB has a chance. He's high up the ladder in terms of blocks and rebounds. I'm just not sure that's enough to get him selected. A strong run over these last few weeks would probably get him second team, assuming everyone else plays the same.

Kemba just has too much competition at the guard position. He's not really doing anything special while others are making similar or better contributions on winning teams.

I don't really think too much of it. I'm much more concerned about the big picture, and I like what we got for when we picked them.

They don't use a G-G-F-F-C format for the rookie teams. It's the 5 best for first team, next 5 for second team

Even still, I don't think he's doing much to make himself standout while a bunch of other guards are making more meaningful contributions. Bottom line: he's not a top 5 rookie at the moment, and arguably isn't top 10.
