    That's not the point.

    It's stupid to bunch centers and forwards together. Centers have to be far more defensive oriented than any other position. They should have remained separate during voting.

    This is why fans shouldn't vote.

    Or at least the fan vote should only count as a portion of the vote.

    I think its pretty obvious now that the ASG is officially a joke now. Kobe Bryant….. seriously people are stupid.

    I think it's kind of assumed that Kobe is going to get in for stupid reasons so we just debate all the other stuff.

    So what? It's not like he's head and shoulders better than any other center.

    Love does benefit from the "Looter in a Riot" thing.

    1. Kobe Bryant (LAL) 844,538
    2. Stephen Curry (GS) 677,372
    3. Chris Paul (LAC) 651,073
    4. Jeremy Lin (Hou) 471,980
    5. James Harden (Hou) 338,788


    Since Kobe said he's not playing, and CP3 is injured and may possibly not play, Lin might end up starting for the all star team lol.

    Pretty obvious he's biased.

    He's playing on a TERRIBLE team...and now Shaq said that some guys get into the HOF on stats...

    Shaq always picks the flavor of the month. He used to say Brook Lopez is the best. He said Hibbert is the best. And now Cousins.

    Shaq is simple-minded.

    That's not how it works. Lin has 0% chance of featuring in the all star game.

    Coaches chose the reserves in

    Chris Paul said if he was voted in he would play. It's in New Orleans and he feels like he owes it to them to play in the ASG.

    From what I have heard that's not how it works. Injury replacements don't just come from next on the list, they are selected.

    I thought they only choose the bench?

    So if one of the starters are unable to play, wouldn't it move down to the next highest voted?
