    Curry more votes than Harden? Lol too funny. If harden and Westbrook are not starting in the backcourt something is wrong.

    Bandwagon Warriors fans are the scourge of the NBA.

    Keep voting. Everyday you can give Harden up to 5 votes each. FB, Twitter, Instagram, Google and nba.com.

    As for Zaza it doesn't matter because none of the media will vote him so he won't make it.
    I doubt Wade makes it either.
    Carmelo is already out of the running basically unless smth major happens.

    Hopefully this leads to some changing in the voting systems for ALL-STAR and all other awards to the players. All of them are not reasonable.

    The logical solution to me would be a combination vote of a) Players b) coaches, GMs, team c) media and d) fans. With each of them carrying a percentage of weight some like 35%, 35%, 15%, 15%, or whatever is makes more sense. It's the only way to balance out the ridiculous and make it more universally representative of the truth....although all voting will be somewhat flawed from someone's perspective always.

    Oh thanks for that info. I'm obviously way behind on that. How does it work? Any link to it or anything?

    Found it on NBA.com:

    "Fans were first given the opportunity to vote for NBA All-Star starters during the 1974-75 season. This year, the league will extend the platform to include two other important constituents of the game – NBA players and NBA media. Fans will account for 50 percent of the vote, while all current players and a panel of basketball media will account for 25 percent each."

    I'm glad this change was made. I think that is reasonable.

    Giannis is a future MVP. 6'11" point guard who moves like Dr. J. All he needs is a jump shot. Rockets need to win now before this monster grows his wings.

    Somehow the votes from we Chinese fans doesn't quite count, otherwise James would blow out Stephanie and Westbrick ezly.

    Remember Yao was elected into the starting lineup of the all star team over Shaq in his rookie season. And I think this is also the case for

    Zaza this year.

    I vote for Harden, EGO, Ariza, Ryno and Zaza.

    It's a shame the Zaza campaign didn't work last year, now he'll never start.
