we're halfway through the season and it's time to update our All-Area team, where we pick the top five players, regardless of position.

just as a reminder, here was the pre-season team:
Chane Behanan, UofL
Anthony Davis, UK
Terrence Jones, UK
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, UK
Cody Zeller, IU

and now that 20 or so games have been played, here's my new list (as always, in alphabetical order):
Isaiah Canaan, Murray St
Anthony Davis, UK
Gorgui Deing, UofL
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, UK
Cody Zeller, IU

you may be surprised not to see Terrence Jones make the list, but Dieng averages only a point less per game and has more rebounds, blocks and steals, plus he's a better shooter from the field and the FT line, so he gets the nod. and how can you leave Murray's Canaan off the list?

disagree with any of my picks? feel free to make comments below...
