Fan vote is basically a popularity contest. I'm surprised Spurs players get any votes at all, tbh.
manu and kobe should of beenwest starters ...but Paul is having a good season too.

Pop will start Gasol at C. He won't start Tim, assuming he makes it.
If Manu were white American (US) and not Argentine, he would receive 10% of the votes he receives![]()
He would probably be a good lawyer![]()

All Star reserve predictions from Matt Winer/Kevin McHale/CWebb and Charles/Kenny/EJ
Very interesting. All of them think Griffin is an absolute lock despite the fact that coaches historically have looked somewhat negatively on voting in great players from bad teams.
Plenty of Kevin Love love as well.
I loved seeing Charles putting the smack on Kenny when they were discussing Kevin Love. Kenny Smith thinks he can talk so much because he has two rings. He was basically saying that Kevin Love shouldn't go to the All Star game because of the Wolves' ty record. Chuck laid the smack down and said that Duncan shouldn't go and he said it would be a lifetime achievement award if Duncan got picked over Love. If records matter, then what about Griffin? He plays on a ty Clippers team. Kevin Love is one of the best big men in the NBA right now. Isn't he the rebounding leader right now?
Exactly. Kenny shot himself in the foot by including Blake Griffin but omitting Kevin Love.
Numbers-wise both are having comparably excellent seasons while on ty teams. Griffin merely has more pizazz and flare with his athletic ability.
I would have been fine with Kenn's stance had he not been hypocritical by including Griffin on his ballot. At least he would've been consistent.
Barkley needs to be consistent. He said he picked 4 BOS players because of Boston's record but he chose only Manu from the Spurs (which have the best record in the league). What kind of reasoning is that - can't have it both ways.
Stat wise this year, Love is better than Duncan so I would think that would put him above Duncan on the all star tream. Stats should matter in my opinion. And someone needs to take Yao Ming off the ing ballot. The guy barely plays and his numbers have not been impressive for a while. You gotta give guys like Monta Ellis and Eric Gordon a chance.
