It would not surprise me at all if JC made a huge positive impact on that team.

All Star voting sucks, I wish it'd go away forever.

Yep, that's a total joke. The guy is setting records for all-time low field goal percentages.

Though I don't totally agree with him. I will miss Kobe because I love the way he's ruining the Lakers. He's a spectacle by being so completely bad. I would rather have this Kobe than a good Kobe any day. And I'd rather see the Lakers continue to suck and be dominated by him than let them move on and start rebuilding and getting good again.

I think it is necessary. Popularity contest or not, people should have a way to tell the league who they want to watch in this kind of event.

What I wish is that the voting system was a little more polished. Guards/Forwards is too broad for my taste. At the very least, distinction for big men and PGs. PG-SG-SF then PF/C. Or PG - SG/SF - PF/C.


Won't watch anyway hahah
