    Guys like Kobe last year, Yao in '11, Iverson from '09-'10... totally deserved to be All-Stars.

    Just because I root for a team doesn't mean I think that their starters are all deserving to start in the All Star Game. I like to think I am a little better educated in the game than that.

    We make it a lottery. Every Chinese person who votes for the Blazers on the all-star team gets entered into a drawing, with the winner getting to move his entire family to the USA to live with Mags.

    Not many people in China vote. Not many people vote at all.

    Instead of fans voting in the All Star Game fans should vote on the All Star festivity challenges such as: Dunk Contest, 3pt Shootout ect..
