Hello and welcome to the Game Theory podcast. I'm your Osam Vassini. We're presented by The Athletic today on the show Deere Curtinbach is you guessed it he's curtain back on the show. Damn it. I had to do it because you loved it so much on the last intro Dieter. This is what I have to do for you. Papadice is happy to be back, so. Yeah, this is going to be a hell of a show.

So last time we went through the Eastern Conference All-Stars, we selected, along with Kyrie, Bradley Beale, Kevin Durant, Janice, and Joelle Embed, James Hardin, Jalen,

Brown, Jason Tatum, Chris Middleton, Bamettabio, Zach Levine, and Julius Randall for those slots.

Okay, so we're going to jump in to the Western Conference All-Stars here. Our starters are Stefan

Curry, Luca Donchich. Yes. LeBron James. Kauai Leonard, Nikola Yukic.

It's a beautiful lineup.

It's a beautiful lineup.

I will say, like, the first no-doubter on my list is a guy that, like, I think should

have been a no-doubt starter in Damien Lillard.

I'm with you.

I'm with you.

We don't need to belabor the point.
