Allstar voting is killing me

[cyman3]

i hate how us (the fans) get to pick the allstars. i understand that we are the ones being entertained and therefore should be able to pick whoever we want... but i hate it when stuff like this happens...

PLAYER A

20.3 ppg, 10.3 rpg, 2.3 apg, .81 spg, 2.66 bpg, .439 fg%, .750 ft%, .000 3pt%, 36.9 mpg

PLAYER B

20.1 ppg, 9.7 rpg, 2.7 apg, .94 spg, .45 bpg, .502 fg%, .868 ft%, .235 3pt%, 36.3 mpg

lets compare to two... main differences

PLAYER A is the better BLOCKER

PLAYER B shoots better % in FG and FTs.

now PLAYER A has roughly 870,000 votes and is clearly on his way to the allstar game.

PLAYER B has 130,000 votes and prob will get left out.

PLAYER A = J ONEAL

PLAYER B = S ABDURRAHIM

also... Scottie Pippen has more votes than Reef.

Malik Rose has similar votes as Reef...

Alonzo Mourning is on his way to the allstar game in the east w/ Ben Wallace.

Sam Cassell is havin a career year and hes not even mentioned as a top 10 guard in the WESTERN conference.

If Reef deserves to get in, the coaches will vote him in. That's how it's done. Fans don't pick all the all-stars, just the starters.

His stats are good enough that he should go. they are better than oneals by large. But he plays for a losing team and hasn't really stepped up beyond his career numbers to help change that. He should get in. But I would completely understand if he's passed over.

You forget one thing...DEFENSE and JO is better there by a large margin.
