Current All-star vote results?

[NME]

Deron is so overdue that it would be hard to argue.

they should have computers outside arco for every home game where in fans can use to vote... or something like that... or promote the reke for allstar in sac.. we need all the exposure we can get. we need this guy to stay and to lure talent!

They handed out all-star ballots at the games last year.

Really not sure what AI and Stoudemire are doing on there.

Amare is benefitting from still being listed as a center, despite not having played the position in 3 years.

I took a moment to read this article from Real GM. Now, try not to scoff in disgust when you read it:

http://sixers.realgm.com/articles/131/20100121/don_blame_iverson_for_fan_voting/

In the article A.I. is indirectly compared to Jordan, Julius Irving, and Kareem. The best I can sum it up is, "A.I. should have this spot as a sort of lifetime achievement award."

You also get:

Steve Nash having two MVP awards – one of the honors determined by media voting – while Shaquille O’Neal, Kobe Bryant and Kevin Garnett have only one apiece should disappoint everyone.

(It's stupid because we all know Nash should have three MVP's.)

I'm not sure what KG is doing there, Chris Bosh is having a far better year.

It helps that KG is playing on the Celtic with three other guys that really take on a massive amount of the offense. Statistically, Bosh is having a better year but if you're looking at W/L, veteran guile, and name value, KG get the nod.

I think the decisive point is the name value, just as it is with AI, or how it would have been with T-Mac. I mean, disregarding the fact that KG has already missed 11 games, in the games he has played, he's averaging 15/7, which is hardly Allstar material. Chris Bosh on the other hand, is playing out of his mind, whilst the Raptors, for the first time in years, seem to matter a bit. I believe that, if it were up to the coaches and players, he'd be starting over Garnett, although, since he will get the coaches' vote, it doesn't really matter all that much.
