Poll: 2018 All-NBA First Team

James Harden‘s offensive dominance for the Rockets this season may earn him his first MVP award, but he was hardly the only NBA star putting up astounding numbers this year, The sheer number of impressive individual performances in 2017/18 makes this year’s All-NBA decisions tougher than ever — no matter which 15 players earn spots on the three All-NBA teams for 2018, worthy candidates will miss the cut.

Still, we want you to do your best to identify which 15 players are the most deserving of All-NBA recognition this year. Over the next few days, we’ll be running a handful of polls to let you make your selections for this year’s All-NBA teams.

We’re starting today with the First Team. Polls for the guards, forwards, and center are below — you’ll have the opportunity to pick two players apiece in the guard and forward polls. We’ll leave today’s polls open for at least 24 hours before naming the players with the most votes to our All-NBA First Team and moving on to voting for the Second Team.

Vote for your All-NBA picks below, and then take to the comments section to explain your reasoning. And if there are a player not listed below that you believe deserves All-NBA consideration, be sure to mention him in the comments section too — if I agree, I’ll make sure he’s included in our Second and Third Team polls.

(Note: In instances where players saw significant minutes at multiple positions, I’ve attempted to defer to the NBA’s classification. For instance, on the league’s official All-NBA ballot, DeMar DeRozan was only eligible at guard, rather than guard and forward, but Ben Simmons was listed at both positions.)
