Would like to see us play Fred as more of a SG on offense where he can look to find space and use his shot but have someone else handle the ball and bring others into the game more which I feel we've always lacked with Fred compared to what Lowry was able to do. Ideally a guard with a bit of height so on defense Fred could guard the smaller of the two guards.

Fred also got more votes than the 5th guy on the 2nd team, but was left off as they keep guard and forward slots, which is very silly.

they need to fix the whole position issue on these award teams.
The modern NBA offense doesn't have a traditional 5. The Celtics were using Grant Williams at the C against Miami. We have the long boys line up.
Maybe it's tradition, and they don't want to change that. But it's a shame that Embiid will likely be on the 2nd All-NBA team, even though he was arguably the second best player in the league after Jokic. And both are centers. So it's not even anti-center bias thing.

Yeah I kind of agree. I mean the all-rookie team doesn't use positions.
