In light of the sudden uptick in Brandon Knight-related posting from around the web, I posed the following question on Twitter the other day:
Answer without looking at stats: Will Brandon Knight get selected to the All-Star reserves? Should he?
— Dan Sinclair (@dan_sinclair) January 24, 2015
Of the responses I got, most were of the "no and no" variety, which surprised me at least a little bit. The intention of the "without look at stats" qualifier was to get an idea of what public perception was on Knight's All-Star chances based solely on what was floating around in people's brains. People who follow the Bucks know that Knight's numbers have been pretty impressive this year, but maybe I underestimated how much knowledge there is about his less-stellar (though still improved) advanced metrics. In any case, I'm still curious, and I wonder how the mild attention boost Knight has gotten from the bit of recent national coverage might have affected the collective mindset. So I'm going to ask again, and I don't really care if you look at his stats or not.
So please take a second to vote in the poll below. There are four options to allow for each possible answer to the pair of questions.
