Fans actually doing pretty good voting...kyrie is a bit of a surprise...but he’s played well. Swap him for Jaylen Brown and fans have the right 10 guys I’d say.

[Indy]

It is crazy how many more votes the east guards get vs west guards. Top 3 are about the same, then it drops off a cliff. I hate that you can vote for guys that aren't playing, too (Klay).

[Mori Chu]

Mostly decent voting there. A few who have no business being on the lists: Klay Thompson (cmon, he isnt even active), Wiggins, Ingram, Ja, SGA, Randle, Derrick Rose. And a few underrated guys like Sabonis and Grant. But mostly it's a solid list and not generally full of fan vote-ins who have no business being in the ASG.

I think they should do the voting, give out All-Star honors to the guys who were selected, and then not play the game. Nobody really cares about the game; the honor is in being selected. Stay home and stay safe from COVID. If they put so many of the best players together, they're just asking for an outbreak.

[Indy]

Does anyone have contract incentives for things like All-star selection or All-star MVP, or is it only all-nba they do that for?

Curry/Doncic have over a million combined votes more than Beal/Kyrie...that’s probably a big reason.

Klay is really dumb...so is Rose.

Ingram made it last year and is a good player, but he hasn’t been as good this year and NO is pretty bad. Wiggins has actually been pretty good for GS.

I think Ja deserves a lot of credit. He’s good and has Memphis in a playoff spot right now. Sabonis is absolutely an all-star, he’s been phenomenal this year. SGA and Randle are also putting up really good seasons, I don’t have a problem with them getting votes.

[Mori Chu]

My wild guess would be that they put in CP3 as a "wild card" West all-star and snub Book yet again.

Book hasn’t deserved it yet this year. If anyone does on the suns, it’s CP3

[Shabazz]

Booker doesn’t deserve to make the All Star game this season based on his play so far.

[Indy]

yeah, and it isn't close.

[In2ition]

Booker doesn’t deserve to make the All Star game this season based on his play so far.

Unfortunately, I agree with this and it saddens me.

[Nodack]

I think Book is more concerned with winning than getting to the All Star game this year. I think he has spent the beginning of the season figuring out his new role and sort of taking a back seat and that has had an impact on his stats and numbers. He has been turning it up a notch lately offensively.

It would be nice if the wings could be more consistent from 3. When they all fall off the cliff on their shooting, they get blown out by mediocre to bad teams. Booker's shot hasn't been very good lately, other than his game winner.

[ShelC]

IT's still one of my favorite players in recent years.

[Indy]

I wish all of our guys played with as much heart as he did.

[bajanguy008]

I just saw this and feel bad for how much I started laughing

[Mori Chu]

I didn't know what Magic City was, but my guess was correct that it's an Atlanta-area strip club. LOL.
