Thomas in 4th and Bradley in 10th, no Horford though. Thank god fans only get half the vote... Zaza and Lin being on there is absurd.

IT almost certainly A. Won't start and B. Will make it as a reserve again. Not a big deal.

Glad the league's taken steps to avoid ballot-stuffing candidates like Pachulia and Lin making it in. Does anyone know how the "fans get 1/2 the vote" works mathematically? They're not going to give the players and media hundreds of thousands of votes, so do they just take the percentages of each kind of vote and average them? Or something else.

probably the Chinese fan base voting him just because he's Asian. He's practically injured most of the season so I do not think he is deserving

I'm surprised about Wade over DeRozan. Wade has even more votes than Butler! You'd think an aging star who just switched teams would fall off on the votes.

Wade being second is hilarious, though maybe not as hilarious as Rose and Lin of all people being on there lol

I'm glad that they're only giving the fans half the vote. All it has been in recent years is a popularity contest for the most popular players in the most populated cities.

Lavine in but no Wiggins. interesting.

[number_n9ne]

I thought Iggy was a sf, no?

[celticsclay]

Derozen has a really small deficit behind Wade. I think Derozen will pass him and Wade will not make the team. As the bulls continue to drop in the standings Nobody can justify them having two all-stars.

wiggins could have been classified as a forward.

[Donoghus]

Zaza?  Haha.   

(See what i did there?)

He plays ALOT of sg now. So maybe that's what they ran with?

[saltlover]

I'm voting for IT every day.  If he can finish above DeRozan, hopefully the players and media can carry him above Wade.

[jambr380]

Zaza?  Haha.   

(See what i did there?)

As it stands, he is a starter (over AD, Draymond, and Cousins). Got to love fan voting.

I do wish there was a way to limit each fan to only one vote by attaching phone #s or emails, but I suppose people would just use others' or make up new ones.

Let's go IT - no way on Wade. Yuck!
