Magician vote totals for the ASG: players' votes

drsd · Post #1 » by **drsd** » Tue Jan 24, 2017 10:29 am

Kerr's rampage about players' votes made me look it up and this is the official vote total for Magicians:
NBA link

Augustin, D.J. - 4 votes
Biyombo, Bismack - 3 votes
Ibaka, Serge - 3 votes
Hezonja, Mario - 3 votes
Fournier, Evan - 2 votes
Green, Jeff - 2 votes
Vučević, Nikola - 2 votes
Rudež, Damjan - 1 vote
Payton, Elfrid - 1 vote

I accept Rudež voting for himself, but did Augustin pay three other players to vote for him? Seriously, how does a guy like Augustin get more than a self-vote???

I doubt that more than a handful of players took this thing seriously. Players shouldn't get to vote for the starters IMO. You're decreasing fan involvement by giving players, coaches, and media members a vote. I'd let them vote on the reserves but that's it. If people wanna see zaza then so be it.

No votes for AG, wow, that's pretty sad tbh. He has no friends?

He's been on a lot of teams and probably has quite a few buddies around the league so most likely some of them voted for him.

I am sure all those votes came from RealGM Magic fans.

Rudez deserves that vote just for the 5 fouls he got in 90 seconds in the Clippers game in Orlando, fouling Deandre Jordan. Plus Rudez is money on NBA2k for IPhone.

On a serious note, no votes for Gordon? He's the only guy who deserves a vote for this squadron.

Most of these votes are probably from non-magic players.... former teammates. Augustin has been on a bunch of teams.

No for real though, how did Hezonja get more than zero

Those numbers are truly sad... says a lot about the younger generation of 'fans' if there are any. Let's be honest, how many adults are going to take time to spam vote for this roster? I probably would have 20 years ago when I was a kid.
