Gobert and Mitchell are awesome, but there are so many great players left off this top 10 list it's a little hard to believe that its from a credible source.
Who would take Butler over Kawhi? (who didn't even make the list of the top 10)
And who is taking KAT over Jokic? (also not on the list)
The best player in the league (Kawhi) didn't make the top 10 players in the NBA!!!???

The list isn't based on opinions of top 10 players. It's using stats for games played so far this season using their 'Raptor' rating system. RAPTOR, which stands for Robust Algorithm (using) Player Tracking (and) On/Off Ratings. Fivethirtyeight is a stats website and they also invented the Carmelo rating metric and a few others I think.

Jokic got off to a slow start this year.

If this were the process used to pick all stars the players having the best year would make it. It wouldn't be a popularity contest anymore.

Oh yeah, the guy who is averaging 17ppg, 3.9 rbp, 4.4.apg on 39.3% from 3 in his last 11 games. That one?
Dump Mike? He's just starting to look comfortable in our system and has been playing very well of late. He's only been here for 16 games so far, as the season progresses I would expect him to just keep playing better and better.
Me as well
Why in the hell would we dump Mike?
