Normally it is the head coach of the first-place team in each conference before the cut-off date – Feb. 2 in this case – that gets the mostly ceremonial role, but the same coach can’t do it two years in a row, which eliminated Mike Budenholzer of the first-place Milwaukee Bucks.
“I think it’s a tremendous honour,” said Nurse. “It’s a couple things. One, it shows you that your team’s having a good start to the season. We’re now past the midway point by a ways here and that’s always important. But it’s an honour. It doesn’t come around every day… It’s kind of the central focus of basketball for a while so it would be fun.”
But it is representative of a job well done. There have been so many storylines around the Raptors this season that Nurse’s role has probably been undersold, but the all-star game spotlight should bring some much-deserved league-wide attention.
