    Last year, Kobe played 5 games total and was voted as an all star starter, but couldn't play because of his injury. So, not surprised this year.

    Just add more fuel to the fire if they snub Harden.

    Dwight Howard isn't on the front page now harden isn't getting enough votes. This whole voting thing is dumb.

    Lin fans hate Kobe but the May still dislike Harden :(.

    There's really no hope for Harden. Kobe was supposed to start last all star game even though he played like 6 games. Harden got the nod because Kobe was injured.

    Until Kobe retires, Harden has no way of starting in an all star game. Combine that with media love for Curry/Westbrook and starting guards are set.

    They have to fix the all star voting. Make fan votes a percentage then combine with stats, the team's winning percentage and GM/owner/media input.

    Thanks for the full list! Lowry might make it :D

    Crazy how with these stupid fans, Lilliard and some others might not make it. Was it always fan voting??

    If every clutch fan member voted for Harden he would still be behind Kobe.

    Dwight's been injured this year, but regardless, he might not even make it as a reserve. Cousins deserves a spot for sure.

    You can't vote for a james about 5 different ways once a day. That 5 votes, one via text, one via twitter, one via Facebook, one via Instagram and one via NBA.com. Get to it people!

    if more people vote for kobe, then kobe deserves it. the all-star game is a popularity contest. if kobe is more popular, he will get more votes and start over harden.

    y'all acting like this is an all-nba team selection, smh.

    James Harden has been one of the best players in the league this season. Kobe Bryant has been one of the most detrimental to his team.

    Does that make any difference to the majority of all star voters? Not at all

    Cousins has been injured just as much as Dwight has. I think you could make a case for who has been better, but IMO Dwight is still the more impactful overall player

    Jeremy Lin is 9th in the votes received for Western Conference guards. Tells you everything you need to know about how accurate this voting system is

    Wow i know the east is weak. But only 1 player in the east should make the all star team in the west (maybe 2).
