First All-Star Ballot Returns

[QUOTE=Connor B]How does it work? Westbrook is fifth, how does he get to be a reserve over Lin?[/QUOTE]
Fans vote starters, coaches pick reserves.

Time for me to vote for Lin and Asik.

They are the most non-deserving players that actually have a chance. Fans should be more united to screw the voting system up.

As much as I hate to say this, the NBA is becoming a joke. The sad thing is these same fans that voted will influence Stern to make new rules.

9-13 team with 2 All-Star starters. :oldlol:

[QUOTE=Nick Young]Dwight a starter? WTF HE DOESNT DESERVE TO EVEN MAKE THE TEAM

4 players in LA starting in the west.[/QUOTE]
Stern will make it happen. what will LA's excuse be when they solve their PG problem when all 4 lakers + CP are on the court.

varajoe gettin snubbed in the votes... not surprised though.


but bynum and amare :facepalm

fans suck haha

C'mon....we have to get Jeremy Lin voted in.....just to see if what David Stern will do.

I gotta be honest, I think its rigged anyway.

Miami about to have 4 All-Stars this year. :rockon:

Good to see Lin is behind right now. But it goes to show...if Lin is playing well, he's gonna make it. Obviously, if he's playing like Linsanity then there's no problem, even if another guy should be ahead...but if Houston stops trying to hide him he's starting.


[QUOTE=Real Men Wear Green]If KG makes it as a starter the Celts are likely to get 3 All-Stars. If the record doesn't get a lot better that will inspire quite a bit of bitching.[/QUOTE]


If KG makes it there's a real chance that Paul Pierce loses his spot.

comeon china, i expected better results :mad:

This just goes to show how useless all-star appearances are in judging players worth.. What an embarrassment.

Pierce isn't a lock but he's a hair under 20 ppg and the coaches have voted for him 10 of the last 11 seasons. A 3 All-Star team should be better but the record will still be over .500 at the current pace. The coaches will support him again barring a major change in his performance.

I really really really hope Lin wins that starting spot.

Would be hilarious when they show his stats on the screen.

What an undeserving Western squad.

Pierce's scoring will go higher because I believe his shooting % will get better. I also don't believe that Rivers will be forever incapable of realizing some of his team's problems...not to mention that the Celtics should make a move at C, improving the team completely. But 3 all-stars is a lot.
