East is pretty brutal. Assuming the Starters hold from the voting
F-KD
F-Giannis
F-Tatum
G-Mitchell
G-Irving
Reserves
F-Embiid
F-Siakam
F-Butler
G-Brown
G-Haliburton
WC-Brunson
WC-Harden

Derozan, Trae, Adebayo, Randle, Porzingis are all deserving.

West is easier
F-Jokic
F-AD
F-Lebron
G-Luka
G-Curry
Reserves
F-Sabonis
F-Zion
F-Markkenen
G-Morant
G-SGA
WC-Lillard
WC-Booker

George, Fox and Edwards being the next in line. Jackson if he didn't miss so many games.

Probably considered a hot take but I don’t think Trae deserves all star consideration

East

Luka Doncic
Ja Morant
Stephen Curry
LeBron James
Nikola Jokic

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
De'Aaron Fox
Zion Williamson
Paul George
Domantas Sabonis

Lauri Markkanen
Damian Lillard

Other candidates: Jaren Jackson Jr., C.J. McCollum, Anthony Edwards, Draymond Green

West

Donovan Mitchell
Kyrie Irving
Jayson Tatum
Kevin Durant
Giannis Antetokounmpo

Tyrese Haliburton
Jaylen Brown
Jimmy Butler
Julius Randle
Joel Embiid

James Harden
Jalen Brunson

Other candidates: Pascal Siakam, Bam Adebayo, Jrue Holiday, Darius Garland, Kristaps Porzingis, DeMar DeRozan, Trae Young, Brook Lopez

It's difficult not having a spot for Adebayo or Siakam, but I think that's what I'd go with so far considering all the different factors.

Mitchell and Brown deserve to start in the east

Fox and Sabonis deserve to be all stars this season

The fact that Kevon Looney has more votes over Sabonis is absolutely hilariously idiotic.

Hell, same goes for Derrick Rose over in the East.

It's time to scrap fan voting.

That's just a popularity contest

The last All Star I watched was in 2004

At least Sabonis is actually in the top 10 this time lol.

Giannis passed KD for #1 in East forwards. Tatum stayed solid at #3. Brown now #3 in guards over Harden.

SGA deserved it more than Ja individually, but I understand Ja is more exciting, and the Grizzlies are a better team. Is Curry out?

Wow, wouldn't have thought Giannis would pass KD even with him being injured because how would that affect any voting. Knicks fans gotta do better because Jalen Brunson should not have less votes than Randle or Rose(though I understand Rose is probably getting Chicago votes). Oh and it's clear that casual NBA fans now feel indifferent about Kawhi Leonard because the fact that he's nowhere on that list speaks volumes.

Who gives a f*ck about a player with zero charisma and zero personality? He is constantly missing games too. Kawhi is so forgettable.

Currys been back. Do you follow the rest of the league much at all? Why does SGA deserve it more than Ja, whose team is significantly better, led by Ja, who is also a much more dynamic playmaker? He's completely turned the Griz around since his arrival there.
