What do you mean Roan has as to produce for the Suns to win. He not even their best player. It's irrelevant to compare Palacio's stat with other SF because Palacio is not even an option on my team. When you combine Palacio's Nuggets numbers with Mavs numbers to other SF, I'm sure their points are the same, less rebs but more steals, ast and less TOs. Since when you have to be an option to be an all star?
You don't have to be an option but 9ppg will get you in the Rookie game at best, nowhere else.
Palacio has played 30 games for the Nuggets and 19 for the Mavs and his scoring average dropped by 3.5 points already. Be assured that not only it were JUST his Nuggets numbers taking him to the ASW but this also most likely has been his last AllStar appearance, unless you suddenly start making him option for a season (and in that case say "hello lottery") ...
