NBA All-Star voting is underway, and fans of the Memphis Grizzlies are certainly hoping to see Mike Conley finally receive league-wide recognition. Yet, whose spot will he take?
“Mike Conley should be an All-Star this year, no doubt!” Then there is “Mike Conley is elite!” followed by “Mike Conley is a top-20 NBA player!”
I have seen all of these statements from local Grizzlies fans, and as each game of the 2018-19 season passes, I cringe when remembering people actually believe such about Mike Conley.
In seven of the last 10 games Conley has played, Grizz Nation has seen him shoot well below 50% from the field.
