Tim Legler East All-Star reserve pick: “I think some people would make the argument, if you’re going to take a guy off the Heat, it’s Bam [Adebayo] because of his defence and all-around presence. But I’m going with Norman Powell. They desperately needed scoring, and he’s given them juice offensively

  2. It should be Norm, he has a least been a consistent since he’s been here. Bam has been up and down a lot maybe Bam makes it as a replacement.

  3. I think Bam’s slump came at just about the worst possible time for him in terms of getting an all star nod. He started off the season absolutely playing like an all star, even all NBA. And he’s playing like that again now. But he slumped right at peak voting season, and I think those struggles still being relatively recent are gonna have an impact on how the reserves are decided.

  4. It should definitely be Norm. He’s been consistent and it’s the better story.

    I’m sure coaches can appreciate a vet that’s been itching to get that first All-Star nod. He deserved it with the Clippers, and it’s the same with us

  6. It would’ve been Bam easily if he had an even average December. Norm should’ve got it last year so he might slide in because of that

  7. Bam is a better player for sure but Norm played better and more consistently overall. Bam slump was brutal lol

  8. Easily Norm this year. Been the more consistent player & is the sole reason the Heat ain’t bottom 10 offensively

  12. Sad to see the vultures flying over head when the fanbase was telling the front office to sell during the offseason
