2nd All-Star Ballot Returns

[pauk]

lol @ East backcourt votes compared to West, doesnt make sense in any way.

[CelticBaller]

Lol, even Ray Ray might make it

Coaches will pick the bench, not the voters

Do you understand how All-Star voting works?

He has no fcking idea. That's sad.

Frontcourt:
1. LeBron James (Mia) 854,105
2. Paul George (Ind) 712,808
3. Carmelo Anthony (NYK) 580,795
4. Roy Hibbert (Ind) 304,829


And I don't know why I'm just now noticing this, but it's looking VERY likely that the East will be starting three SFs in the frontcourt. LeBron gonna be guarding Dwight Howard.

I know it happened last year but why did they change it from Guard, Forward and Center to Back-court and Front-court?

SG George
SF LeBron
PF Melo
All of them can play the positions they will most likely be assigned. Dwade will probably be PG and hibbert at C

How is Hibbert going to be starting if he's not voted in as a starter though?

And which backcourt player are they going to kick out of the starting lineup despite the fans voting for them? Just kick out Kyrie despite having nearly double the votes as Hibbert?

Right, kyrie irving will be voted in and hibbert will be benched. making LeBron the center...

I hope the NBA can figure out this mess

Sorry man.

sadly he will be voted in, does he deserves it?

Sorry man.

Lol caught on and edited my post. I don't like the three frontcourt players/two backcourt players voting style. Should be G's,F's,C's but some people still don't understand how this shit works.

I'm guessing it's because they don't want guys like Dale Davis and Jamaal Magloire in the All-Star game.

Never said I agreed with it dude, it's a stupid way to vote for an exhibition game, but that's the NBA for ya. LeBron at C in the all-star game will just push his supposed "GOAT status".

And about Kyrie not deserving it, what guard in the East does? 22/6/3 (albeit with only 41% shooting so far) with an improved defense, career high in assist-turnover ratio when he already made it last year. I don't exactly have a problem with it, maybe Wall deserves a mention but that's about it.

[KG215]

And now they've gone and f**ked it up to where the starting frontcourt for one conference will feature three SFs. Oh, and not to mention how the media and talking heads will shat themselves as they orgasm talking about how awesome LeBron was playing center for 5 minutes in an exhibition game and how this proves he's the most versatile player ever.

He's definitely an all star, but both Hibbert and George deserve to be starting
