    Why?

    Why?

    Why?

    What has he done this year? There are SOOO many other players who deserve to go besides him. He is injury prone, his point total is down, and he is a big baby who complained about his team. I pray that NJ nets suck this year so he can continue hating his life.

    The fans need to realize he is not that good.

    The only thing that will make him good this year is Jason Kidd.

    Half the fans who vote dont know much about B-ball and just pick his name because he is known.

    The only way Vince is going to be an all star this year is if he is voted in as a starter by the fans because there isn't a coach in the NBA right now that would vote for him as a reserve, except for Lawrence Frank.

    It's not too late for him to turn things around though and I have a good feeling that he will thrive with the Nets, if anything Jason Kidd will turn Vince into an all star.

    seriously, i will be contented if vince can just comeback to all star level. and people dont realize this, but the all star game is a popularity contest. the most popular get in , period. complaining will not do a thing, but luckily coaches in the nba respect good play, thats why we have deserving all-star selections year after year.

    most nba fans watch the nba for hightlight reels (i know as i used to be part of the group) and only pick names that are mentioned in news and sportscenter all the time.
    to an average north american, would u rather pick a player with a rep for incredible dunks (aka vince carter) or someone effecient, but receives little exposure/hype from the media (aka antawn jamison)? We dudes here at JBB know jamison is more deserving than carter, but he was on teams perceived to be lousy, like golden state and washington, and he often stays away from the media, so of course people tend to disregard him when considering all star balloting

    Keep Your Post Clean Or Thread Will Be Closed

    <font color="Red"> Post already in this thread have had to be deleted due to content. And given the Subject, more of such probably will likely continue. If it does then the thread will be closed</font>.

    Plus Nets fans, a majority of them at least probably didnt vote for Carter, they voted Jefferson. So you are starting a thread in the wrong forum, Raptors fans are responsible for that, I guess. Either way, keep the post clean and intelligent guys.

    I do not know about you all, but I am voting both Carter and Jefferson (before I was voting Jefferson and Okafor)...I know Carter has not done any thing yet, but it just a phycological thing I guess.

    I just realized that the same thing with T-Mac and Houston, might happen with Carter in NJ; Both fans from Toronto plus his global fans, and now his NJ fans will vote for him. He might go ahead of Shaq, but I doubt it.

    I don't think he wanted Vince anyway, I think he is mad because there are other players deserving it more and I totally agree but as Martin said, fans remember his dunks and his entertaining style of play. The other deserving players will get voted in as reserves from the coaches, so nothing to worry about too much imho.

    Not really, yea people still liked him, but we're not idiots, I didn't vote for Carter I voted for Hill and Jamison, many Raptor fans were also angry at him. Also the percentage of votes that come from Canada is very very small consdering not that many people care enough about basketball to vote, and the people that do care aren't as many in comparison to the voters in the states.

    The casual fan voted him in, he still dunks in All-Star games, people want to see that.

    lol i surely voted for desmond, cuz dats what allstar games are about SHOWTIME.. vince without question deserves to be in the allstar game, i hope he leads it all this year.. he can still dunk wen he wants to, the windmill he sure did get up.. he still has his hops i dont know what he waiting for but whatver man im happy to see him on the allstar team as he is the best player above the rim, not kobe, not tmac none of them can touch him above the rim.. kobe tries his hardest every night which is amazing, but he is tryin his hardest an still missing dunks and <font color="Red">edit </font> .. lol vince puts it down with such ease..

    vince will show what a great player he is in newjersey even tho he is again on an undersized team. but i personally dont think he is staying in new jersey.. i have a feeling he will be traded again, but watever happens happens, vince is the best dunker. u cant even say jordan in his prime was better than vince in his prime.. vince could take the dunk off for 5 years in a row with the exact same dunks and take the title each year

    All-Star games aren't games it's more of an alley-oop fest. The games are high scoring. No one really plays any D till the last maybe three minutes. VC was the most exciting player in the league at one time. That's why he gets so many votes.
