Re: First All-Star Ballot Returns
If KG makes it as a starter the Celts are likely to get 3 All-Stars. If the record doesn't get a lot better that will inspire quite a bit of bitching.

[QUOTE=maybeshewill13]Wow **** Jeremy Lin..[/QUOTE]
If he's not top 2 it doesn't matter. Westbrook will be a reserve.
Re: First All-Star Ballot Returns
Dwight a starter? WTF HE DOESNT DESERVE TO EVEN MAKE THE TEAM
4 players in LA starting in the west.
Re: First All-Star Ballot Returns
wow if lin catches paul im gonna break the internet
Re: First All-Star Ballot Returns
Everyone vote for Chris Paul.
Yao got tons of votes but he was a great player when healthy. Jeremy Lin isn't and it would be a shame if he got the All-Star appearance.
Re: First All-Star Ballot Returns
This is a joke. Basically all people did is look at the poll and ask themselves, "O who iz on da Heatz or da LakerzzZzz?" I mean honestly Shane Battier? Metta World Peace? Ray Allen? Pau Gasol? Get the hell out of here this is why I hate big market teams they're spoiled.

How does it work? Westbrook is fifth, how does he get to be a reserve over Lin?
Re: First All-Star Ballot Returns
It would be funny to see Lin make the all star team. but yeah a lot of great players so far are getting snubbed like Parker, Mayo, Varejao, Lopez, Josh Smith over guys who aren't that good or are still on the injured reserve.
