If 4Chan has their way, this is what we'll get. For the record, I'd laugh my ass off:

Coaches reward success unless the guy from the bad team in question is just INSANE. To be fair, kyrie is pretty insane, but not enough so to overcome 5-18, especially when you consider how many games he's missed.
So what you are saying is that you would rather watch Joakim Noah in the All-Star Game versus a budding star in Kyrie Irving?
No wonder I rarely come to these boards... Especially the General
BTW. He only missed 11 games, just out for 3 weeks. You make it out like he missed 20 or 30 games. We still have a lil ways to go til the All-Star Game sheeeeeshh.
Deron Williams was on the abomination of a team last season and made it the ASG so I don't wanna hear ish about how poor the record is.
Just people trying to downplay Cleveland smh.

I think it is time to man up, be objective and consistent and say that Kobe does not deserve to be on All-star game All-star game should be called a joke if you had more than 1 Laker if their record keeps up
It depends on how the season plays out each year. This season with Derrick Rose being out, Igoudala moving the Western conference, and Roy Hibbert underachieving has opened up spots for other players. Everybody wants Varejao in the ASG and as a Cavs fan, I rather Kyrie be in there. I'm not tuning in to the ASG to watch Varejao flop. I can do that any of the other 82 games he plays. Kyrie is putting up good numbers and he is a star in the making. Because of that, he'll find himself on the bench. Guaranteed.

AK47 has to be on the West team surely.

Wasn't it just a few years ago, where we almost got Yi Jianlian into the All-star game?

LMA has been playing really well lately after starting out playing like bargnani earlier in the year. I think he has a chance to be recognized again as a legit All Star

Too many good forwards, do you think the coaches are going to vote in two Wolves forwards into the ASG?

If D Lee does not make the all star game then there is no justice in the NBA world.
#GSWStats @gswstats

2 players in the NBA have 10 games this season w/ 20+ points & 10+ rebounds or assists: David Lee & LeBron James.
Dubs finish the 7-game trip 6-1, the first time in franchise history
Lee road trip averages: 23.6 pts and 13.3 rebs while shooting .595 from the field with 20pt/10reb efforts in each game

Lee should replace Love, Love just isn't good this season and his team has been just as good without him.

Assuming the fan vote for the starters sticks, I think the teams should be:
EAST:
Rondo / Holiday / Irving (over Deron)
Wade
LeBron / Pierce
Anthony / Smith / Horford (over Garnett)
Bosh / Chandler / Noah (over Varejao)
---
WEST:
Paul / Westbrook / Parker (over Curry and Lillard)
Kobe / Harden
Durant
Griffin / Randolph / Aldridge (over Love)
Howard / Duncan / Lee
If I put in in parenthesis, it's a close call.

Re: 2013 All Stars (thus far...)
ffs, how the hell are you people picking Paul Pierce in there ahead of Luol Deng? I'd say ok if there's a few Boston homers, but 99% of the people here do the same.
What game are you watching? Or is that the issue, that you're not actually watching?
SMH. I hope atleast the coaches do the right thing, although i'm not holding my breath tbh.

Where is AK47?
Why is he not on everybodys roster.
Dude has been the man on a Minnesota team that is currently 12-9 with their two best players either missing (Rubio) or playing hurt (Love)

No way Love makes the all-star team.

I was expecting that his shooting would improve, but yes, if it continues this way, AK is the All-Star, not Love, Hugh I doubt it will happen since Love is still using a lot of FGA and drawing fouls to put up 19 PPG, and his 14 RPG is still impressive, so if one makes it, the coaches would probably vote Love and acknowledge his injury holding him back.
