    Tony Parker at seven is ludicrous.

    Also Carmelo? Please....

    There should just be two all star teams. None of this east west crap.

    Wow, James Harden is 5th? Dude needs more pub!

    So, LeBron at C in the East? ;)

    There would be a certain symmetry if Kobe and Lin were to win in the balloting.

    I understand this is a popularity contest, but shouldn't there at least be some qualifier like -- you know -- you can physically play? Could Steve Nash even crawl onto the court at this point?

    The fan vote is ridiculous, and what is even more ridiculous is the All Star Voting page that literally vomits big star names (some of which have sucked this year or haven't even played) to the top of the page so any casual fan voting will just say... "Oh.. Kevin Garnett... He's good right??"

    Kobe Bryant is leading? This is as bad as when Yao was leading the season he didn't play.

    Kobe?? hahahahaha. All star game is a joke anyways, let it be so. Surprised Lin isn't higher, LOFs be slacking. Curry is higher than I thought he would be, I guess he's more popular than I thought.

    We need to strip fans of the privilege of voting.

    Kevin Love is 4th in the West's Frontcourt?

    Fan vote needs to stop, the league and players should choose the people who actually deserve to be there.

    Unfortunately NBA fans outside of the Rockets aren't fans of Hardens style of play since it relies so heavily on drawing fouls + his lack of defensive effort, though the same could be said of Durant...

    It should be Harden and Parker in the backcourt.
