If Allen Iverson steals another all star spot (imho he didn't deserve to go LAST year), then we shall have to build a time machine to get those fans/coaches back from 2001.

The one thing I am pretty sure will happen is Rondo being voted in. Does anyone notice how much the opposing coaches seem to mention Rondo during their half-time, pre-game planning etc...and they are the ones that vote them in correct?

I definitely agree. I would be absolutely shocked if Rondo wasn't voted in by the coaches. When the Heat and Bucks and other coaches are just talking about him after the games and praising him that much I just can't see him not getting voted in by the coaches. Plus Ray had one of his best years of his career last year and he wasn't voted in by the coaches but was selected for an injury replacement. I don't think it's right for Ray not to get the nod necessarily but I find it hard for him to get voted in by coaches this year when his play is a little down from last year (a great year) even though his numbers are still pretty decent (and the fact that we could be 1 in the league at that point).

I think Perk should get some love but it's honestly hard to get all-star love if you are a center bringing down only 7.5 boards a game. He also doesn't score a ton either. Not that he doesn't deserve it but I think he gets lost in the conversation a bit because of this. I could definitely see Bogut getting the nod if he maintains his play. He's having a real good year, he's team is doing decent and they are missing there best player. Plus he just went off on Perk and the C's, where Perk is a defensive stud and our C's are one of the best defensive teams in the league.

Lets all get Rondo voted in, i think he's 8th right now and he definitely needs to be further up.

I'm sort of surprised to see CP3 fourth in the voting for west guards. Surely people would prefer to see him in the starting lineup over tmac?(guess not)

Yep... only a huge dropoff in his production would prevent Rondo from being selected but I don't see that happening. The coaches know how good he is and they should select him.
