    Lillard got more votes than Klay & RW.

    Gasol, Griffin, Dsvis, and Duncan all got more votes than Durant.

    Fans know what's what.

    Exactly. It was the fans putting Kobe in as a starter that kept Dame from being picked by the coaches. They only get to vote for 2 guards and there were just too many legit players to choose from. Hopefully, Silver corrects for the fans' mistake.

    Do you think coaches would've picked Kobe if fans didn't?

    They picked 2 from a non playoff team already, what's to say they wouldn't take 3?

    They both sucked this year. Coaches and Fans. An oddity, for sure.

    Hard to say, but you'd like to think they wouldn't have. They had enough sense to pass on Howard.
