    I think this type of vote is very flxable. In fact, some media put Howard at the PF postion for the 1st team already.

    I know the MVP, Rookie of The Year, etc. awards are voted on before the playoffs stars so that is why I would assume the 1st,2nd, and 3rd team are also.

    damn I am thinking that YAO might not be voted in the 1st team in his whole career, cause stats wise D Howard will always be better. Is there any player who is a HOF, but wasn't voted in the 1st team for even once?

    What the hell, I turned it off at some point in the 3rd in the middle of an Orlando blow out.

    bwahahahaha.

    I wonder how many sports writers had to delete their already completed pieces.

    You could foresee some rust with the way they played to end the season , which was like pure ****. Magic will still get the series though.

    Chris Webber said it best. You can't live and die by the 3.

    ...and what kind of MVP candidate (Howard) doesn't get the ball at the end of the game?

    Charles Barkley is an idiot for sure. During the half time report of Hawks vs Heat, he said at the end of the game, Magic should put the ball into DH's hands, even though he's not a good free throw shooter, just like how Shaq got the ball at the end. There are so many things wrong in that sentence I can't even count. First, Shaq didn't get the ball at the end of the game in LA or Miami, because he's a bad free throw shooter. Second, DH12 doesn't get the ball at the end of the game, not only because he's a bad free throw shooter, but also because he's not a good offensive player to create something. Why do you want to put the ball in his hands? Then, Barkley said DH12 is the best offensive rebounder blah blah, and you want to put the ball in his hands, so he can get his own offensive rebound?

    Charles was a great player, but he's an idiot.

    ^^^ I was about to say something like that but the answer was too obvious for me to bother typing.

    DH is simply too limited offensively to be a go to guy in the closing minutes.

    Yep, 30%, that is the Rafer that we came to know and seriously dislike. When he takes that many shots he can kill your chances of winning.

    what? D Howard is horrible on FT line that's why he shouldn't get too much ball at the end of the game, aka Shaq.

    The guy missed several key freethrows and he hit a lucky fadeaway shot he's not known to knock down. That guy is overreacting, lmao. Package me an iggy for an artest, haha.

    Barkley was saying at the end of games the Lakers still would go to Shaq even though he isn't a good free throw shooter.

    Yeah Igoudala has good potential, I just don't know if he ever will become a superstar though.
