I heard today on Raptors NBA TV that Chris Bosh is second in the east behind only LeBron James in All-Star voting at the Forward spot. If the ballot would close today, Chris Bosh would be out first starter since Vince Carter in an All-Star game. I think this is only going to want Raptors fans to vote more. Overal this is good news and good to see a growing fan base everyday.
He deserves it, The East is very weak at the big man spot and Dwight Howard should be the only player contesting him for that spot.

I saw tis when the voting results were realeased. I am so happy. I didnt think many Americans would want to vote for Bosh, but they have, and I really hope he continues to be 2nd in Forward voting so he can get a start in the All star game. That would be great.
I would love to see Chris Bosh at the all-star game. We probaly will, but I don't think he'll start. Last year, he was behind Tayshaun Prince in fan voteing, and with his recent injuries he'll start to slow down in American votes, so its pretty much he could end up number 3 or 4 which is 50% of the total value. But the coaches almost sing handedly brought him in last year. I think he'll come 3rd in forward voteing.
It makes sense, hes improved alot, sure his scoring went down 2-3 points, but his rebounds have shot up, he is one of the best forwards in the East, no doubt, he earned each nd every bit of it. Good to see Bosh reaping his rewards.
