    I'm not sure who should be ahead of him, but Aaron Gordon third team? I thought he was doing well, but 3rd team AA type well?
  • Laley23
    Gordon is not close to a 3rd Team AA.

    Ok, maybe close. But he definitely is not one.
  • GOONx19
    I don't think Julius Randle should be third team either, but I think he's a more deserving candidate than Gordon.

    Marcus Paige but no Jahii Carson, Marcus Smart or Bryce Cotton? A little UNC bias there...no way Paige is a top 10 player. Very good...very clutch, not top 10.

    Aaron Gordon? You gotta be kidding me.

    Gary Harris>Marcus Paige

    I also think Doug Mcdermott is extremely overrated and will end up being a Adam Morrison type.
  • Azubuike24
    Harris as well. There are half a dozen guards left off better than Paige.
  • Prescott
    Rodney Hood and Cleanthony Early over Gordon

    Yeah, the only rationalization for including Aaron Gordon on an All-America list is that he plays on a good team.

    That Sean Kilpatrick was missing on the Wooden Award midseason Top 25 list kind of makes you question the legitimacy of some of these voters.

    List is obviously crap. 1st team should be the starting 5 for Duke because it's Duke.

    2nd team should be Duke because it's Duke.

    Rasheed Suliamon was the MVP of the OC Fantasy League, how did he not make it?
  • reclegend22
    Bryce Cotton is another guy that got snubbed by Aaron Gordon.

    Cotton has had a great year for Providence. He finished with 21 PPG, 5 APG and 3 RPG for the Friars. He scored 20+ in 19 of his last 21 games.

    Bryce cotton is a fucking baller.
  • reclegend22
    I just noticed that he was already mentioned above, but yeah, Cotton can ball. Exciting to watch.
