All Star Voting

Not sure who votes sometimes, I know I am biased but how does Zydrunas Ilgauskas, Ben Wallace get more votes then Bogut.

Ben Wallace is past it and is on a a team with similar win losses to us,
even when you compared some of the west votes Erick Dampier has more votes then Bogut.

Bogut is easily a better player the Ilgauskas but either more people/fans in Cleveland are voting then bucks

In the east The Centers will be Howard and Shaq, Howard I understand but Shaq, his performances in the last 2 years have been non all star yet again this year he will make it and play for 10 minutes, just because he smiles and laughs alot.

Another player I love to watch is Deron Williams the man is averaging around 20pts and 9 assists and he is not even in the west top 10.

you do know the fans only choose the starters and the coaches choose the reserves so Shaq will not be there....Bogut may get a strong look if he keeps his 20/10 up through the all star break.

There was a post in the regular forum on Brendan Haywood....check out his stats. Completely flying under the radar and maybe having a better year than bogut (that said I am basing this off numbers, arguments of others, and I have NOT seen Haywood play all year). Either way, his name is worth mentioning in this second best debate

first, they are in bigger city/bigger team
second, they are aged(who know if they are better, if jordan is still playing he will still be in allstar?)
third, you are bias
=)

what you can hope for is if bogut continue to get better and better
he can attract millions of vote from china
that's a guarantee

bzzzzzzzzzzz... WRONG!

Big Z had a great first 2 months this season, and absolutely dominated Bogut last time we played the cavs, Bogut is playing better ball at the moment, but January is too late to turn it on if you want fan votes. If Bogut continues to average 20/10 there is a possibility he could make it to New Orleans on the coach votes
