That's a sign to me that NBA fans are more knowledgeable, for the most part, than fans of other sports. In LMA's case, performance on a winning team is actually being rewarded. Repped for thinking to find that stat.
Thats super disappointing. He will get close but probably fall 20-30k behind. Would just be nice to have an all-star voted in by the fans since I can't remember the last time we had an all star voted in by the fan vote.
Or 800k went to Kobe for doing nothing? Marketing shouldn't trump common sense, but it does at a far more consistent basis than it should.
Aren't there 3 front court players in starting line up? Doesn't that make it Durrant Aldridge and Howard at the start?
I think the OP is saying those are numbers since the last tally. Those aren't overall numbers. LMA is down at 5th: http://www.usatoday.com/story/sport...tar-voting-lebron-james-kevin-durant/4393825/
Roy Hibbert is 4th in the East in front-court voting so LeBron will probably be starting at Center in the All-Star game (even though they don't count having a Center anymore).
No, probably not. He's currently in 5th, he'd have to pass Griffin and he's about 100k behind him with only a few weeks left.
Gotcha, for a second there I thought fans quit being retarded because the starters should clearly be Durrant Aldridge Howard, with probably curry and cp3 as guards. Imo lillard should be on bench though. But fans are tards.
